GeneralGeeWhiz 0 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I thought a thread like this would be awesome. I used to grind 45 and 180s for a while but tired of the grind and quit playing, mainly to focus on graduating. It's been about a year since I put in any decent volume and I'm itching to getting back to the grind. Here are my results from 2008 in 45 man turbos on PS. I hope to continue my GREAT SUCCESS!Username Games Played Av. Profit Av. Stake Av.

TheDonk1989 0 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 What's considered good for roi? I have a 35% roi for tournaments with 2000+ entrants. Is that good or bad? Link to post Share on other sites

Is that good or bad?Sample size is required to give you a true answer here. 35% over 20 events does not equal 35% over 2,000 events.I think I'm around 17% (22% over last 120 days), and the latter is good enough for a 7 star on OPR.

Jimberry 0 Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 What exactly is a "pushbot"? Link to post Share on other sites
lurbz 2 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 What exactly is a "pushbot"?A pushbot generally refers to someone who mega-multitables (anywhere from 4 to 32) turbo SNGs, usually of the 45 man and 180 man variety. Right now I run 4-9 but that is because I have math homework to do every night so my volume is cut. Once summer hits I will be 12-16 tabling. The term "pushbot" is because the general strategy of play adopted by them is to not do much post flop play, so once they hit about 10 BBs left (it's a turbo, so pretty quick) the play becomes shove/fold to either double up or steal blinds and antes until it's over. It is a highly successful money-making strategy if done right.I, for example, am a pushbot. Link to post Share on other sites

bigbadbeat 0 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 not exactly a pushbot, but i do have pretty decent sharkscope stats. i really dont have enough time to play long hours continously, but i have been trying to improve my mtts. basically, every copper i have made in SnG's has been wasted in mtts. anybody have any ideas off the top of their heads why whatever success in SnG's doesn't translate into mtts. I have worked on a couple of themes (bet sizing, hand selection and positional pushing) and my mtt results have gotten marginally better. Any help would be appreciated.Username Games Played Av.

Run a few of them at the same time and you can a decent amount in a short while.Not too mention Knock Out cash which (if you happen to lose) usually pays back most of your buy in.
