I am a bankroll management genius

Had 2,250.95 left in my account, lost a 2, 250 HU SNG. So I have .95 cents left. But its ok, stars let me know right after the lose that I acheived platinum star! Taking a lil time off I guess, go celebrate and stuff.

Adapting to terrible players/call stations

Been on a nice run playing the 115's. Got my sharkscope down to 3, 690 and I need to rack up a little over 1k in fpp's. I played a lot yesterday, sometimes one tabling, sometimes 4 tabling. The main thing I noticed was my record vs. players with a very high ROI or on a leaderboard on sharkscope for their heads up play were my easiest matches. I was having problems with the worst players on sharkscope. Only because I did not adapt to how they play. You can't bluff a fish, and in HU SNG it's tough to even continuation bet without a hand. You can value bet deuces on these oppenents most of the time. But betting with air is -EV vs. these clowns and there is no reason to semi bluff draws at all. They pay you off anyway so hit them as cheap as you can.

The bankroll is up to 2900. I lost in the 2nd round of the 215 HU tourney and played a couple 55 dollar MTT's. I played well in the HU tourney and lost 2 races in the same match = can't win vs. a good player. I think im going to play against next weekend. I like playing good players, it will only make me better. I also feel like I used to be afraid of playing the best players, they lose games too..... A big portion of the field was also MTT reg's who don't know how to play HU optimally.

215 HU tourney today on stars

Really sick but I think im playing in it today, taking a shot. Have over 2300 in the roll, and won 21/22 HU SNG games, 8 of them were not turbo's though. What a heater!!!! Will let you know how it goes

22 hu mtt on stars.... took it down!!!!!!

lil over 1250, won 8 matches in a row plus 9 or 10 34$ HU SNG in a row = I am on fire and celebrating. Bank roll is up to 2100 :) The players in this tourney were very tight/weak when the blinds were 25/50 up.

Playing with other players and blinds in turbo SNG's

Had a fantasy baseball draft today and played a lot of 34's HU on stars. One of my boy's who is a sick MTT player was playing some of the big weekend tournaments on stars and FTP. I got to watch him play and talk to him about some hands. The one big thing I learned about my play is im not pushing with my reads and decent hands enough. Especially with high blinds. I feel like im depending to much on my cards and not protecting some of my mediocre hands like I should be. Im up 240 right now after buying into over 100 dollars of MTT's so I made over 350 in 34$ HU SNG's, so thats a pretty sweet run. I want to start the 57s at about 900. that might be a little early though. I kinda just skipped over the 22's whooops And my fantasy baseball team is sick (everyone thinks there team is sick) had the 2nd pick and took hanley, its only a 50 dollar league.
