Yes, a Sklansky buck is $1 worth of expectation. Be sure to hold onto your Sklansky bucks because when the Long Run comes, you can exchange them for real money.

There are times when every table is filled with TAGs. Some of the TAGs in these games I would hope are not 2+2 because they play really bad, but they get there.

A lot of them play better than most 2p2ers think (but a lot of them are not good). Remember DERB? There isn't a set, perfect way to play.

Anyways, based from my experience in the 15/30 game I don't think the games are drying up. Lots of 2p2ers seem to be in downswings, but I'm not and almost all the regulars with most hands played (generally TAGs) this past month are not either.

I'm sure if we post a "how bad is your (month)" thread every month, they would get just as much activity as this month, and they would be mostly ignored by those doing well.

I play in that game a decent amount and I'm on a bigass rush, so I probably have your money. I promise not to spend it all in one place. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Technically I am still up at 10/20, with about 0.4 BB/100 in that game this month. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] But I have losses on UB trying to clear the stupid bonus which is taking forever. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I'm in that game and I'm in the worst downswing of my career.

It may be the game, but I doubt it. Avg VPIP's are still pretty high and the play is pretty bad on avg.

I also just moved up so I have no real sample size. Overall in my party 10/20 career I'm up 400 BB's and, since saturday, down 400BB's...

I'll talk more about my thoughts when I post my challenge update this weekend.

I'm sitting at a table right now with an VPIP of 31, so you can't tell me this games not beatable...

If misery loves company, you should invite me over.
It's been ugly since Christmas. (-$8K spread around 20/40 15/30 10/20).
The juicy games are starting to dry up IMHO. I guess now that everyone has a poker chip set, they must have got HPFAP under the tree this year.
Glad I didn't quit my job.
