happy new year Q, gl to all playing for the year
hear a guy say its not one tourney, its a record of the whole year
than sit back and analyze the figures!!

dvda - 30 Dec'05 - 15:56 - 1304 of 1311

dvda (energy52, I play as twopalms...) this 99 fold was good
at that stage, however 99 is worth either half yr stack or all-in
immediately as you need to thin out the field, and AK is gonna come with you
and you still have 5-4 chance on the pot

qualified in the sat for sundays 150K but got short stacked and held no cards
813 players, finally bombed at 128th, also qualified for french open Qsame time on Sunday - so bloody slow, everyone playing tighter than a so-so's whatzit
201 players seats in Deauville (worth 7K) went to top 10, 11th -19th worth 300+$
11th = 1000, anyway at 3pm this morning 5 hours later blinds 300/600 and I was sht stkd on 4K after having been "rivered" from 8K, anyway there were 32 left
money starts at 19th and seats in france from 10th (bloody tired) In early position I go all in on JJ a guy calls with A9 spades, great I think then flop comes KJ4 spades = 31st no cigar, no nothin..

so my advice is keep a record and select the multi tournements such as (on Para)the Monkey, and evening 40K (30$) and play, look at the figures in 3 months time
study the books, they all have gems... also play some STT (party poker best for this, gd experience for your end game play (secret is play tighter than a....., for the first 40 mins then open up when you feel a general improvement in your pocket cards) also play in as many qualifiers as you can afford because you will qualify and the experience of a bigger money tournamnet really focuses the brain) If you can play a restricted schedule of cash limit holdem this helps patience and consistency and gives good training for the bigger no limit game, in bigger touraments your not looking for big pot hands (let them come of their own accord) but you are looking to chip away and gradually accumulate chips thru smaller set play pots


just some bits peeling off the brain
gd luck and happy new year
