Durrr 50%! Give me a break. I don't care how bad these players are, we all know that's not true. I know of plenty of solid micro grinders who go on long streaks of not cashing in these, just like any good MTT player in any donkfest. |

well
no its pretty true at least it has been in my case, maybe I dont have enough of a sample size. I have about 15-25 logged, but yes I think a solid player can cash in these 50% of the time. Hell after 3rd blind level you are down to about 80 players, and if you double up a couple times you are there. The average chip stack that makes it to 18 is about 15k. they also let you in with any hand very cheap, I usually run and suited connectors or gapped connectors from ANY POSITOIN becuase they think raising blind 2x is a good raise with AA or KK when the blinds are 10/20. And they will push all in on flop regardless of what it is thinking they have you trapped. Again my sample size may not be enough but from the ones I have played I have won 4, final tabled about 8 and maybe just cashed 4. I wouldnt play them if I didnt feel they are profitable, I havent played many latley except for last week when I took one down, I want to work on big MTT's and single table playing MTT's. edit: I just realized what I wrote in origional post, what I meant was you could cash in 50% not final table. sorry for confusion. I think if you played 1k of these a solid player could be expected to cash in at least 500 of them, which I dont believe to be true for MTT's but these I think are different.

nope
wouldn't work with JD, he is used to being very very aggressive, and is used to getting people off hands at higher levels. In these the players dint fold no matter what the board is as long as they have a piece of it. JD's style of play has progressed way above this level. |

Agree with Brian, I don't know about 50% but I really think these are great tournies for someone on a limited roll. Like Brian said, just play a solid game, people just give you their chips if you make a hand. Another thing I have found is that the money tables play suprisingly passive. Very rarely do I encounter an aggressive big stack. What about you Brian, have you found that to be true?

hehe
you must not know me too well yet, I dont play cash tables anymore. I have blown many of bankrolls at them. I do not play money tables well at all, I take bad beats and tend to get in the I need to get the money back mindset and lose more. Now I rarely play them at all and If I do I don't play high levels at all, I don't even play money tables in Atlantic City anymore, I play tourneys and sit and go's there. But I have built bankrolls from the $4 180's before, of course I blew them on the cash games. Like I said right now I'm trying to only play 1 tourney table at a time and only playing MTT's. All this talk of the $4 180's though are getting me interested maybe I will hit some up next time I get chance. I will start tracking them and post results. |

These MAY be the best games of the internet for low rollers - I don't know one way or the other... What I do know is that Brian is full of crap with his 50% figure. That's just not gonna happen, even if you play perfectly.
What I like is Brian's supporting evidence. He's got 15-25 of these "logged" (well, which is it?) and claims "you can cash in almost every one" - uh, huh... sure. Show us some numbers. How many have you logged? 15? 18? 24? How many times have you cashed and how many FTs have you made? No go play about 10 times as many and I'll start to think you have a reasonable sample size. Until then though, please. The only person you are fooling here is yourself. |

well
I didn't keep writing numbers on any of them, I estimated how many I have played, I know how many I have won but not sure on the other stuff. Like I stated in the later post I will start tracking them. Maybe I was on just a good run in them, like I said my sample size is not big enough, I said that. BUT I did cash in more then half the ones I played, I will have more time next month after the holidays until right before Christmas so I will start logging some then and posting some numbers, I'm not arguing with you guys and there is a real good chance I wont cash in half I was just stating what I have done in them in the past from personal experience so calm down. |

Odd how SharkScope has you having a 28% ROI (and currently being on "SuperTilt"). Don't get me wrong, that's not bad. 506 games played, $535 total profit. Is it worth it though?
