[OneTimeAce]

I have to say I really enjoy 2/4 then any other level I have played. It is wayyy different imo.

[ipokeder]

so i just played a session of 20-tabling 2/4 6-m on stars.

my thoughts: the experience was somewhere in between choking on a large twig and getting gangraped by grizzly bears. all-in-all, i don't think it's for me

results: 1227 hands, +631 6.4 ptbb, playing 21.7/16.6/2.44 w/ 43% wsd (standard i run so bad)

i was getting about 1800 hands an hour

gdolldaz, no dont fold the set. also, how did 3-6 go?

[/ QUOTE ]

dropped 9 buy ins, ran 15 below expectation. That puts me down 20 buy in's overall @ the 3/6 on the year and 50 buy in's below expectation or there abouts [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

One day I'm gonna run halfway marginal @ the 3/6, for now I'm just trying to turn around this 30+ buy in downswing. Tonight is gonna be a marathon session

never folding.... don't worry about 30 BI, I had a 40 buyin downswing in august and just shrugged it off. you should do the same. You know just as well as I do that 2/4 is like printing money.

[Jamougha]

40 buyins wtf. I fume if I loose more than half a dozen.
