Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

Why would a member of team Pokerstars even try for SNE?

Surely they are all entered for the events given to Elites anyways?

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

Scotty maybe u can answer this. Do you guys accept the visa ALL ACCESS gift cards?

Dario just became a member of team PokerStars a few months ago (unless I'm mistaken).

So perhaps he will play less online now than he has in the past.

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

Also, for those interested, here are the Elites up to this point:

1 ElkY
2 BigJoe2003
3 marchinvest2
4 jhub3000
5 River Prayer
6 redargoe
7 anonymous
8 catcher3333
9 nanonoko
10 dbeckham7467
11 Dariominieri

It will be interesting to see how many more make it in the next month.

Are these all SNG players?

Nope.

I don't know who exactly plays which games, but I'm pretty sure that marchinvest2 mainly plays fixed limit hold 'em (full and short) and catcher3333 plays a lot of no-limit hold 'em.

I want to say that ElkY and BigJoe2003 are mainly SNG players.

I'm not sure about the others.

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

nanonokokokoko plays a lot of NL and limit cash-games including at the high-stakes. Like 25/50 NL flipaments and crazy stuff like that.

dbeckham is almost exclusively a 3/6 and occasional 2/4 limit 6-max player. Bunch of tables.
He's mentioned before that he and marchinvest2 are pretty good friends. I think they might have been roommates at one point or something.

I'm guessing that in a couple weeks chezlaw will be another from the group of limit 6-max cash-game players to make it. He's mostly on 5/10.

Hopefully. Marchinvest is also a limit player, plays mainly 10/20 and 5/10.

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

redargoe 12-18 tables 3/6 through 10/20 NL.

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

is there no nl200 or nl400 SNEs? if there isnt it wont take very long now that you can 24 table.

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

leatherass says that he is going to make it.
He talks about it in his blog on stoxpoker.
I think he is primarily NL400 but he might have some NL200 thrown in there somewhere. Haven't kept up with it but he did all of it since April. Had zero points the first 3 mths of the yr.

A couple other players who are there all the time like themainevent wouldn't surprise me if they made it.

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

nanonokooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...that is all

The amazing part is he started in April. I think we will have one SNG player make it that started in May as well.

How many FPPs

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

I thought LA's blog entry about SNE being 'the worst decision in his poker career' was pretty interesting

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

Not that many FPPS, I've used a bunch.

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread

God, I can 100% relate to that post. And it's a major reason why I'm ambivalent about trying for SNE next year...

Re: New Official Supernova Elite Thread
 

duno, he seems serious in his blog, but there is certainly value in it, especially is you dont have to destroy your psyche for 9mo straight, instead of a noraml-ish grind for 1yr.

If I was a NL player, I wouldn't even think about going for it. His hourly from playing smaller # of tables in bigger games should dwarf any benefits of SNE.

Its also kind of funny to read about NL players bitching about downswings [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] (41k hands, down 4 buyins= lol)

You forget that I have a real job so "normal-ish grinding" is still 6-8 (or more) tabling...

The part that resonates the most is how you never really feel like you can step away for a few days...

This is funny though. (Though considering how gosh darn soft anything NL200 and below is, being down 4 BI over any significant # of hands would piss me off something fierce)
