ISAP?

Nickoli · #1 06-26-2007, 09:50 AM

I don't post much on 2+2 but I stalk regularly... thought it was time to make my first post in this forum.

I typically play live poker, but just recently started playing more online. I know that the swings are bad and variance is huge. I usually play STGs ($12 turbos or $11/reg) on Full Tilt. I play the $11/45 man tourneys a bit too. IF I'm feeling frisky I move up to the $20 level every once in awhile.

Below is a graph for first 100 games or so. I have two questions:
1) While I know swings are large, it seems like I'm either really hot or really cold. Ideally, you would want a more gradual upslant right? Anybody else experience this kind of pattern?
2) I think it might be helpful for me to track more specifically my stats on hands I'm playing etc. I typically use a mac to play though. Anyone know of any good pokertracker-like software for macs?

I know that 100 games isn't a lot, but I would like to get a feel for if this is standard and maybe take steps to correct any bad habits..

Thanks.

You should probably move up where they respect ur ability to go busto.

I think you're right. My problem is that I'm not losing enough fast enough.

Moving up would probably solve that problem. Thanks for the advice pd.

don't play SNG's, the variance is so high that you must play 5,000 before it can be determined if you are a winner or not. If you play one per week, that will take you roughly 100 years.
