GabeTheKid 0 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 here is the august graph so far.http://img504.imageshack.us/my.php?image=august16amg3.jpg Link to post Share on other sites
GabeTheKid 0 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Been playing 400nl hu too, and 5/10 6 max or 3/6 6 max...but that just more or less recently.Don't know if you saw my graph from last night. I played a guy short at 10/20 hu...he was horrible and 5/10 6 max and equally bad at hu play. I ran disgustingly bad after busting his short stack twice, and ended up dropping 3 buy-ins to him. My roll is back in the 33-34k range. I'm not sure what I'm doing next. Last night was very very frustrating for me...losing hu to horrible players starts to really get at you...- Jordanjust curious..by roll you mean your overall cash or what you have online?

Royal_Tour 0 Posted August 16, 2007 Author Share Posted August 16, 2007 Wow, reading this just made me think about the fact that you're playing HU 200nl rolled for 180 buy-ins. Crazy. Well done with the BR management sir. I'd tried playing too high and gone bust.makes sense to me. The more i play as income opposed to side fun, the more i realize that bigger BR's = better/ less stress playing.Look at pokerplayer24, he profits hella good playing 200NL.

Jordan 1 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 just curious..by roll you mean your overall cash or what you have online?my roll, ie what i have online. although 1k is in my friends account i lent him.rest is online spread over stars/ft and my rb site.have withdrawn i think 2.5k from it. yea- Jordan Link to post Share on other sites

You're not really using all that money to play with and it's just sitting there making $0 when you could have 600 a year for doing nothing. If you hypothetically go broke, then reinvest it online...That's what i have...currently i have about 24k online and about 18k in investments and i play 200NL and 400NL. I understand that 600 or 700 isn't that much $ but if you're just getting it for free, why not? right? it's like 14 24s of heineken a year for free...that's free beer for a week just some advice...

Gabe.dude, at your age and your situation, you should be putting that money into a RRSP at medium risk over 5 years. (the exact plan i have, you can withdraw money at any time, and it just sits there in different investments (your portfolio) Or better yet, get a financial advisor to help you make correct decisions for the future. Money Concepts is the company that handles my RRSP's the last 2 years i've had an average return of 15-16% Link to post Share on other sites

Money Concepts is the company that handles my RRSP's the last 2 years i've had an average return of 15-16%yea...but i look at poker as an investment as well. It's good to have high and low risk invetments in your portfolio and poker is my high risk investment. 3.6% guaranteed on 18k is my safe investment. it's diversified. I'll give it some thought though...any1 else think i should be investing the 18k in higher risk ivestments? why? Link to post Share on other sites

Mattnxtc 0 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Gabe...why do you not have your money in an online savings account? You can easily find one that gets around 5%...would be like around 1.5% more than what you currently have and around $200 more if you have 15k in? Emigrant which Im using now gets like 4.9 right now but advertises at 5.15...getting around 5 is pretty standard for an online savings account. Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 YSAP?what games u playing?Tourneys and sngs. Even tried out a little $1/2 PLO just to mess around today, obviously got stacked twice (aces AIPF, and 2nd set vs top set on dry board against the table maaaaaaaniac).

Mattnxtc 0 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Having to input sngs into pt manually sucks. ROI is either at 45% or 58% depending on if my excel is more accurate or if my input into pt is more accurate...there has to be an easier way to get stars sngs into pt Link to post Share on other sites
sennin 0 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 New goal for myself is to play 32 $6 9man turbo sngs a day, and move up to the $16 ones when I have enough in my BR. And im actually going to commit to it, I think I can grind out a very good profit Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Well, despite the awful start here, which is a sick continuation of yesterday apparently, I managed to get a nice upward trend over the rest of the day. Nice little confidence booster.Also, with that retarded dip at the beginning today, I had a nice litte 230 BB downswing over ~1300 hands. Yay! Link to post Share on other sites

( Bush Deficit , cough cough )Im not sure I understand what this has to do with it? From what you said, the interest rates are lower here...yet I can get a higher rate on my savings (American) than he is getting in Canada? I believe and someone may need to correct me...but: ING is over seasHSBC is a british company Both of which will get you closer to 5% than the 3.5 he is at Link to post Share on other sites
