busto again on stars
 

im just curious if anyone else has the same problem as myself

i have a decent roll on ub ap and party (10k each) and consistently win there

however when it comes to stars i cant seem to keep a roll

i recently built one up to 10k and well a month or so later its gone

im thinking im just not good enough for the large feilds or i run bad when it matters

any thoughts or suggestions??

before you busted you roll, were you playing the tuesday 1k's, 100 rebuys, or full sunday stars schedule (i.e. warmup, million, second chance, etc.)

Re: busto again on stars
 

to be honest, pokerstars should easily be the most profitable site to any dedicated MTTer player, in regards of amount of tournies starting, strength of field, prize pools, etc. (elky is losing because he plays above his head). If you aren't winning on stars MTT, you aren't playing well. (obvious exceptions for like if you only play the high buyins)

i understand what your saying...i dont think i play that bad i mean i have made around 100k in the past year on ub party and ap but the avg field size in those mtt's are usually around 200 or so

my thinking is i need to find out what my leaks are in mtt's with large fields or variance is just biting me in the ass on stars

any suggestions how to figure out my leaks other than cardrunners?

100k in winnings or 100k in profits, if it's 100k in profits over a good sample size (i.e. you didn't just run hot or luckbox something) then why would you care about stars, just stick to your strengths. although yea, if you have a good sample size on stars and are still a losing player then perhaps you are playing above your head or playing bad.

Re: busto again on stars
 

yes its around 100k in profits and no i didntly just luckbox a big tourny iv actually won a ton of smaller mtt's (avg like 4k prize)

and the reason i care so much about stars is because i wanna move up and its hard to do so on ub when the biggest daily tournament has a prize pool of like 20k

but you are right i should def just stick to my strengths

Re: busto again on stars
 

What is the average field size? I imagine stars is a lot larger. If so, that means you need a ton more MTTs before you can reasonably say you are a losing player on stars.

Honestly, I always thought stars was the toughest pre US outlaw, but the prize pools and tourney frequency made up for it. Probably still the same now.

Word. Apart from the "play vs the best for practice" argument, I don't see any particular reason to play on Stars if there are alternatives. Of course, if you're 10-tabling not playing Stars is probably silly, but especially for Euros playing MTTs on Stars apart from the obvious ones ($150 nightly, $50 $50kg, Mill etc) probably isn't the best idea from a ROI perspective.
