looshle 6 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 awsome topici respect your game and know you are a sik tourny player, And im trying to become one myself and actully "trying" latley instead of just playing for time consumption so my qeustion is what are the 3 best tips/advice to winning in mid-high stakes online mtts..?I think online mtts right now are all about restealing later on in tournaments. I think ti was my key problem when I was playing every day, trying to get my money in first when down to 10bbs and not trying to play a huge pot without a huge hand. You need to play for 1st or else you have no shot to have the results you are looking for. Also like I said ti a previous question, play when you want to play, dont enter another tournament coming up if youarent in the mood and arent going to play your A game.

NoSup4U 0 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I had been traveling to just about every stop I could but after Borgata, I decided to take a break until Foxwoods. I've cashed the last 2 WPTs but not the results I was looking for and wanted to take time off and let the frustration run its course.I didn't really play much online while traveling just because I had been trying to play every tournament I could. The World Series wore me out and right now I'm kinda of sick of tournaments. I'm currently in AZ spending time w/ the GF playing online cash on Bodog 3-4 hours a day. I'm working on replenishing my BR to where I think it should be but isn't due to non poker leaks.Come out to CAZ tonight! :)Mark Link to post Share on other sites
looshle 6 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 What are the most important differences/changes that you have to make when you switch gears from MTTs to cash to sng's, or any combination thereof. How can you go from one to the other without there being a period of getting back into the feel of whatever it is you're playing now as opposed to what you were playing/have been playing more of lately.Well the only sngs I play are turbos where I pretty much wait for the nuts until everyones short and then go crazy, leaving no room for flop play at that point. In MTT's Ill play as many flops as I can if I think I'm in a profitable spot and my stack is deep enough but I play really tight and really passively in higher buy in live events. In cash games, I really only playing LHE so I'm playing rock tight and am pretty much in autopilot since Ive seen so many limit hands. I think anytime to go from one to the other, like I have with cash from tourneys theres going to be a grace period where you need to get back into the groove but the more you play the easier it will be.

looshle 6 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 How do you come up with your screename and how should we pronounce it?Have you ever been broke before?And is GrinderMJ goin to/already done one of these?My screenname is my nickname which came from a HS teacher/basketball coach on the first day freshman year. He really didn't remember my last name so he threw out a bunch of random guesses and the last one was looshey, which went to loosh, which when to looshle when everyone started tacking on "le" to everyones nicknames.I haven't gone broke since I started playing full time but when I was playing $5- 10sngs with a 200 BR I did.

looshle 6 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 How much do you incorporate tells into your live game?How different is the style of play between live and online tournaments?Tells are a huge part of my game, it's not necessarily an eye twitch or anything like that, it's combination of how comfortable someone seems and what I can get out of them verbally. I have been playing very tight, passive lately so all of the decisions are usually on me so I use everything I can but betting patterns and position and everything else are still the main concepts I use when making a decision.Live, I am much more tighter and less aggressive than online. Online I will start out tight but the shorter levels/smaller stacks force you to get the money in and playing more ore aggressively if you want to win. Link to post Share on other sites

looshle 6 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 What was your opinion on the level of play in that circuit event at Ceaser's in Vegas you took second in? Did you hear many grumblings about the decision not to make them TV events anymore?Whats the strangest request/stipulation Harrahs makes for FT participants that we might not know about?What was the feeling the first time you were in a "big money" event and you saw a dozen page rail thread on FCP with half of the free world cheering you on? What does that compare to?And, of course, how would you advise a friend to play KJ against Brandon Cantu?The circuit event was a pretty tough field in general, but I feel I had some decent table draws and the cards dictated that I didnt play too many pots with the better players. I was lucky enough to have the best hand in some big pots and some lucky situations like quads vs nut flush, in which the guy open shoved when he hit his flush on the end for a huge bet. Once David Pham was eliminated I feel that Corey and I were the top 2 at the table and everyone else was liable to make a big mistake at any point.Harrahs didnt ask us to do anything that any other casino would.Lucky enough for me, I had been in a situation before where there was the same amount of money on the line and it helpd me to focus on my game and not the payouts. You cant think of the money until its over because it might stop you from playing optimally. The support from FCP meant a lot and is hard to describe how it feels until you experience it.I've blown bankrolls with KJ, fold it. Link to post Share on other sites

looshle 6 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 How many big tournaments (10k's) do you like to play in a year? Is there a limit? Are you now mostly an online player or a live player and why?I play about 7-10 per year. Theres not really a limit just depends on how many I feel like playing. I play mostly live but lately it's just been online gridning cash. I started out live and live players are typically much worse than online players, especially after the new law was passed.
