    Staking Myself - Grind a SNG roll

    Since it is the new thing to do and in order to focus on poker again for the first time in a while I am going to start this log at the same time as the other stakes to see if I can grind a roll out and move up the levels and jockey back on any shared knowledge.

    Going to start on the $6.50 18 man turbo SNG on Stars with a 20 buy-in start and see what they holds these days. Will 4 table for starters but will probably Table ninja increasing amounts gradually

    Starting Balance = $130

    Game on ...

              Turbo varience + 20 buy ins =

              GL you're gonna need it imo with only 20bi's but if you can do it successfully fair play

                Thanks guys

                0 cashes for 5 but got distracted watching The People Vs Larry Flint, great film, so will start seriously tomorrow away from the tv! Bubbled 2 games but fairly confident about the games in general.

                  Good luck Marc. I've started playing these aswel as a stake for bohsman and have played 66 so far but i'm not in profit. I'm playing well enough to be, but at the moment variance is taking over. EV adjusted has me up over $60. GL and run well. Might bump into you in a few!

                      1st session last night .. A few too many bubbles or it could have been profitable. Hope to get a decent volume in today. Encouraging the high finishes in these 18 man games. Playing the 9 tables helps with the discipline early. Also crazy how light they ship/call. Have to adjust my ranges a lot here.

                          Good stuff WK.
                          We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.

                            And the reason to not get ahead of yourself in this game. Variance rightly kicked in during the 3rd session earlier. Initial thoughts are that AK got beat many times by all sorts of garbage and dominated hands that time round reflected by the EV adjusted line. The fact I was watching the rugby at the time did not help me with concentration. Reviewing the basics from it now and will jump in to a 4th later.

                            Session 3
                            Starting roll $135.73
                            Session start $300.83
                            Current roll $230.93
