    Default OP: SNGs Because I Suck

    About time to make a OP/blog where I can post shit etc.

    Here was my previous blog/op: http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...ay-170680.html
    Since then I went back to casino whoring for probably about 3months, grinded up a pretty sweet roll. Ran out of bonuses. Spent all of my roll on electronics/clothes/other shit. Which was pretty sweet, but looking back I'd prefer to have the money.

    About a couple months ago, got sick of not having any $, so deposited $200 into my moneybookers and grinded numerous kickback bonuses over some ongame/ipoker/microgaming skins through 9man Sngs.

    About 2 weeks ago, I made a fresh Fulltilt account, with rakeback and full bonus. Deposited 860, and now I'm up over 200 excluding rakeback/bonus. I'm playing 25NL 6Max. I only started the move up from 10NL about 5days ago. Running pretty hot, but I'm pretty confident in my game, I feel I'm playing alot better than my previous op but I'd happily move down to 10NL if I started getting owned.

    I'm also still grinding HUSngs and Dons on two Ongame skins for a combined kickback of like $550 at over 100% rakeback. I'd love to be playing cash to grind this, but at these stakes it'd take too long and the software would tilt the shit out of me. So I currently have two rolls so to speak, the first been my cash roll which will be the emphasis of this OP, and the other being the mindless SNG grinding one for the kickbacks. My time spent between the two is like 70/30, I have no plans of becoming a good SNG player, as they are mindnumbing. My sharkscope shows I'm about 5% Roi over 1000games so I'm happy with that. The overall plan is to get to 50NL or 100NL at which point I can grind the euro sites by cash

    I'm currently at work, so will upload stats/graph when I get home. But from what I can remember I'm running about 20/18 at about 4BB/100 over 8500 hands. Stats were similar for 10NL over 5000ish hands.



    Goals of OP:
    Play 50,000 hands of 25NL before taking shots at 50NL.
    Get better at hand reading, and making the best decisions based on this.
    Study common postflop situations against calling ranges with pokerstove.
    Work alot with the Deucescracked/pokersavvy vids I have saved up.
    Do spoons BC exercises.
    Run good
    Pass Uni(This should probably be at the top of the list)


    Feel free to leave coments or advice on any hands or progress that I post
