do whatever you feel you have the biggest advantage. since you called them seats and goes i imagine you are better at cash?

I don't think he's from the US. If someone asked me to to write in French or Italian it'd probably look like that too.

May not want to give up on cash yet just because you have one bad beat. Sounds like you need to manage your bankroll a little better if you lost most of it in one hand.

just a word of advice...unless you are desperate (short stacked) don't go allin preflop. even with AA cause in sit and goes players will call with crap and river you with junk............see a flop

a few ansewers.
1 english is not my first lenguage, and i can only speak 4 and understand 5, so , sorry about punctuation, but here we are talking about poker not gramar.
2 I was involved in a cash table with 5% of my bank roll and i was up 25%
3 last nigt to prove me i jointed a 3 dollar buy in at Bodog 750 guaranty and finish 5
4 on monday i finsh 5 also on the 500 freroll 4400 players
al in all i belive that in order to make some progress i need to play more tournaments than cash.
I also noticed that many of the leaderboard players made the biggest gains trough tournament winings and then move into a bigger cash games.

heres a few thoughts:

1. AA getting bad beated should not ever stop you from playing cash game
2. cash games makes money a lot faster than tournaments, especially with a limited roll
3. should just ditch the freerolls
4. tourneys has really high variance, and GR88 tournies have such low turnouts

therefore if you are doing well in cash games, I suggest you stick to it. experiencing bad beats should not sway you either way. if you are a better tournament player, play tournaments, if you are a better cash game player, play cash games.

how do you know that others are making money through tournaments in the leaderboard?

i agree on 4th
deagree on 3
agree on 1 and 2
the leader board guys usually plays seats and goes of 60 double up
even 100
however some made 1 day gain of 500 out of nowhere so the logical ansewer is tournaments

lolbear · 07-04-10, 09:16 AM

how did you find out what they play though?

I add them to my friend list and i can see what they play and what tables as well.
Many plays seat an go, the top leader board play a lot a variation like razz and OHL
I only play Holdem and 5 cards

ok what is your advice genius

Hi to all
thanks for some of the hints, however, the best advice came form a frase of Albert Einstein that say " if you continiue doing the same thing you always will arrive to the same resoult"
so the cash tables as good and temptin as they are, because is a low limit and players ply anything no matter what the bet, i decided to play today seats and goes and tournamnets.
The results are as follows
60 entrants tournament i clasifieded 9 making my money nack and some
play 7 seats and goes
won 1
second 3
lost 1
play 1 cash table and double up
total winings 17 dollars.
i know is not much , but last nite i spin my wheels all for 4 hours at the tables braking even minus 1 dollar/
today i did all this in about the same time on 2 dollars seat and goes.
all in all if i can continue on the path i can maket at least 10 minimun x 50 days 500 dollars more or less,
i just want to be qualifide within the first 8 .......so far with 245 dollars i should give me a good start.
best regards to all

the prize for top 2-8 sounds really sketchy; i think unless you place 1st you will only get the money you make + rakeback

sinmiedo · 07-05-10, 09:11 AM

Hi Papabear220:
If you noticed 4 players are already out, and 2 are in a very frigile state of reaching to the middle of the board. i know that is not exiting what i m doing, but, i stop the bliding and changed the course. My strategie is to make some big tourney before the thing is over in order to make some more money.
On the seats and goes and tourney like you say is a very low tournout.
My experince on the table is desasrus i lost my first 20 at them, and recoup on the seat and go.
I need also experience in other games but i m making this as a leasure, i m not mking money at poker, i have 2 business and one of them is manufacturing, I play poker for fun and to diconect me form the day to day intensity of business.
I noticed that at the bigger tables the same guys ply all the time indicating people dedicated 24 / 7 to poker, not my case. Not only i have the time, at my age i enyou my grandson, wine and a good bbq.
cheers.

this is terrible! do the opposite of this

sinmiedo · 07-06-10, 08:31 AM

it was not a seat and go. it was a /10 .25 10 players table/ i was in mid possition
an early possition raise 3 a reraise to 5 and a short stack call all in the early possition reraise to 8 and i re railse al in 14 dollars ,
flop came 8a5 raimbow and then runer runner clubs
early position shows JJ
i show my set of A
the lape possitopn shows 48 of clubs and takes all costing me to go on tilt.
