    Default Fullt tilt strategy question. for 5.5 and 11$ SnG

    Hey guys, ive been playing on PokerStars for quite a time, and i have found great succsess 4 tabling SnG's. Made about 600$ the past week.

    Anyhow. For personal reasons i moved over to Fulltilt last week. I wanted rakeback and i also wanted to get some bonus ))

    But i cant archive the same succsess on fulltilt. I find it harder to play there and i know the level of players is a bit greater, but i think it has mostly to do with the blind structure. Anyone have any tips for Fulltilt and how i should play on it?

    I have a cuple of questions that need some answer:

    -How to deal with the blind structure?
    -My cbets always get reraised, should i aviod them? (and those times i thought they were stealing, i rereraised them and got busted out)
    - My aces or kings never gets action?! Should i start limping my good hands for crying out load I do 3xbet or minbet on them now!

    Grats on big profit over the past week

    How big is the sample size? It sounds like you've just had a bad run of variance running into big hands and your big hands not getting any action. Keep raising them though, better to take down the blinds than be unable to fold an overpair in a 5 way pot.

    ok it has been what i think 4 days only. But ive played several games, 4 table those turboes for about 14 hours the other day. i had a profit from 300$ to 450$ but then i went down to 325 again and up to 370. But the thing is. I feel like those times i won i was more lucky. And i am afraid that i will lose my full tilt bankroll if i continiue.

    Well, in my return to poker I'm playing exclusively at Fulltilt ($5.50) because it's the only site that accepts real money players in the US who play on Macs... I actually really like their SnG structure. Being 9-handed seems to better for me and their blind structure seems slower than what I'm used to with more levels, although I don't know for sure.... (I feel like when I used to play on Party or pokerroom the blinds would go up in much steeper increments).

    Honestly, I don't think the calibre of player is especially strong and I would certainly respect reraises more often than not at the low levels. Folks willing to put a lot of chips in the pot usually have the goods (unless their super donks and push constantly thinking they're playing smart aggressive poker). I find most players are pretty tight and passive, but not to say you can get away with constant bullying as weak players tend to get overly paranoid about being bluffed and play bad defense.

    Post some full tourney hand histories and we can tell more.

    I've been playing the $12 turbo's recently, although not that many...50-100 or so.

    I don't find the standard any worse than the 6.50's at Stars, it's maybe even softer.

    I hate the blind structure, with their small increases i'm always trying to re-calculate the correct bet sizes. I'm sure this wouldn't be a problem if i played there exclusively.

    One of the players from SNGicons (z32fanatic, bigjoe2003 or FieryJustice) when making their training video's, commented that he's finding the low level sng's on full tilt to be much softer than the Stars equivalent, and he's probably right.

    Their time time bank feature is a bit weird too, when your time is up and you click on the time bank, you seem to get about 5 sec. extra

    Until there's an autohotkey"auto-time-bank" script for FT, like the one's for Stars/Party, i'm sitting out for a bit.

    Still, you can mod the tables up at FT better than anywhere else.

    Either from here:

    Everything is in here, the thread is enormous and could well crash your browser if you click "show all" One page at a time is my advice.

    What about these:





    Sexiest cards i've ever seen:

    In your elements folder you need to replace cards0 up to cards6 as well as well as cardsmall.

    On page 135 of that thread Version 8.0.ZIP is posted. All you need is in there. They should be in .png format.

    You need animation & full cards on in settings and you can choose which backs you want from options on your table window.
