     Hi Irishrover.  Nice dog gave you a bone for your birthday. !!  Just like to know what it Say's on sharkscope about me, am I a fish, or what, told you have to be a member to look. The Stats they hold on players does it depend on how much you make BR  or how many games you win. Players are folding to my raises and I am not getting value from them. One Player said Sharkscope said I was US.? He must know me then.?  Does Sky allow Sharkscope to have this information on players. Not complaining just curious can i stop them knowing this information.    Just been told members have to pay to down load the Information from Sharkscope, so dont bother to look me up, dont want it to cost you money, but having said that why on earth would anyone want that Information on me when I only play 30p 60p games. ?  Annie x

    Hiya Rover, I'm currently just playing the £2.20 deepstacks and am doing fairly well I also sometimes play the Orfordable 10- seater ones. My question is what would you advise as an appropiate amount of buy-ins for playing tournement poker to avoid going broke after a bad run ?

    Ty for the questions michael,

    you get to view your last 250 games ,

    the records go back to march 2008,

    so there is a lot of stats like monthly stats / dym / s&g / mtt and so on .

    its around £100 for 12 months ,

    go for the 150 searches option .

    Look at the above cost as an investment in yourself .

    IF you profit over £10 a month its payed for itself !

    From here you can search for soft tables ,

    don't worry i will help you on line at first with this, just seek me out on the

    skypoker tables .

    Ty Dudeskin for the question ,

    The appropriate  amount would be about  2% - 4% of your bankroll .

    so in your case a bankroll of £100  up, for your £2.20  buy in  would

    be quiet comfortable if a bad run kicks in .

    Hi Denis....I did ask you this in the chat box so I will just clarify it on here if you don't mind matey.

    Can you give me my stats this year on just Deepstack games please?
    (and PM them to me)
    I have taken heed from your last advice to me and have cut down dramatically on playing B/H and other stuff and I am concentrating on the Deepstacks at the mo. Plus I have just busted out of the last 3 mtt's I have played with AA (twice) and KK, so I might just play DS now anyway!!!

    Cheers,

    Alan


    PS.....you put that shelf up yet?

    How can i get my roll for £1-8k :P although technically not my roll
  • edited October 2010


    Cheers Denis......

    As you know, I am going through my worst down swing ever (imo) on Sky Poker and could do with some advice on how to ride it out. I am still playing, I think, my normal game but hitting a brick wall in terms of cashing. My BR has gone under 3 figures for the first time this year and I don't really want to throw money at loads of different games to get it back on track. I have dropped down the levels in the deep stacks (£2 rather than £5 etc) but I am still not getting the rewards that I was used to. Been sucked out on a couple of games with KK v K2 and KK v Q10 which does not help my mind set ATM to be honest but I do realise this is just variance and/or the poker gods just want to pee on me from a great height!
    So.....what do you suggest to help my predicament?. Is this the right time to grind away on micro DYM's?. Is this the right time to just rely on luck and play just forum SnG's :))
    I am also playing a lot on other MTT's on another site which isnt going too bad ATM but not breaking any records. The beauty of this other site though is that there is a lot of micro MTT which also have that wonderful option of a late registration. I can join a MTT 1/2 hour in with half the field already gone and still cash!

    Regards, 

    Alan

    I usually put in £5 -£10 a month would like to do more but im cheap and tight. I usually manage to build this a bit at first but then just seem to blow it in a day. Im on terrible form at the moment do you suggest i stick to 30p dyms or something. I often buy into £2.03 bounty hunters or satellites but i cant seem to cash in them.

    THINK I AM RIGHT IN SAYING YOU DON'T REALLY PLAY CASH TABLES ,
    SO BASED ON RESEARCHING YOUR LAST 250 MTTS  & ALSO YOUR LAST 250 S&G GAMES ,
    THE DOOR IS THATA WAY /> /> /> />>>> LOL

    NO SERIOUSLY I SEE EVEN THOUGH THROUGH THIS AS YOU SAY YOURSELF A SEVERE
    DOWNSWING A CLINK OF LIGHT HAS APPEARED IN YOUR STATS .
    YOU SEEM TO HAVE PROFITED IN 10 SEATER S&G GAMES .

    LOW STAKES PLAYERS IN MY OPINION HAVE ONE GREAT ADVANTAGE OVER
    HIGH STAKE PLAYERS ( LOL NOT GOING TO KNOCK HIGH STAKE PLAYERS )
    FOR US LOW STAKE PLAYERS IT IS EASY TO BE VERSATILE IN OUR TYPES
    OF POKER GAMES ,
    IN THIS I MEAN WE CAN PLAY SAY  DYM ( DOUBLE YOUR MONEY ) ZONE IN
    FOR A FEW WEEKS  ON THIS ,
    THEN ZONE IN AND FOCUS ON SAY DEEPSTACKS MTTS & SO ON .
    WHY ?
    BECAUSE THE STANDARD IS ALOT LOWER SO IT IS EASIER TO BE FLEXIBLE .
    ITS A LOT TOUGHER TO DO THIS ,
    THE HIGHER UP THE POKER FOOD CHAIN YOU GO .

     
    THIS IS MY ADVICE TO YOU ,
    PLAY SOME 10 SEATER S&G GAMES
    FOR A FEW WEEKS .
    IF YOU FIND THE SHARPNESS GOING ON THIS MOVE ON TO DYM  &
    SO ON .
    TREAT YOUR SELF ONCE A MONTH TO A BIG MTT BUY IN .
    BUT MOST OF ALL 4% OF YOUR BR FOR YOUR S&G GAMES .
    10% FOR YOUR ONCE A MONTH TREAT GAMES.

    ANY QUESTION OR INFO YOU REQUIRE DON'T HESITATE TO ASK .

    DENIS

    I HAD LOOK OVER YOUR YOUR STATS YOU SEEM TO PLAY
    A LOT OF FREEROLLS AND HAD SOME GOOD FINISHES ..

    NOTE 2ND FROM 1171 PLAYERS  WAS A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT &  8TH FROM 457 PLAYERS &
    A FEW MORE LIKE THIS .

    TRY IF YOU CAN AFFORD PUT £50 IN YOUR ACCOUNT & DO THE FOLLOWING :

    TRY PLAY SOME £2.20 DEEPSTACK TOURNAMENTS & SOME £2 DOUBLE YOUR MONEY SIT & GO GAMES.
    PUT MOST IMPORTANT DO NOT BUY IN WITH MORE THEN 4% OR 5% OF YOUR BANKROLL .
    FOR £50 YOU WILL HAVE GREAT ENTERTAINMENT NIGHT AFTER NIGHT ,
    IF ONE GOES OUT FOR A MEAL OR A FEW DRINKS £5O WOULD ONLY LAST ONE NIGHT LOL .

    LET ME KNOW HOW YOU GET ON .

    DENIS

    P.S ANY QUESTIONS ON ABOVE DON'T HESITATE TO ASK

    thanks for the reply and that makes a lot of sense, I often have terrible bankroll management. I did however just win the 22.30 freeroll for £22 will probably put another 20 in my account and give the DYMs a go. Thanks once again for good advice and thread.

    Thanks a lot in advance for taking the time to help out us lesser mortals.

    I generally play in the £2.20 deepies & seem to do ok ish (Won 10 or so now)  - only been playing poker for 3 months but everytime I try to switch to cash it goes horribly wrong.

    I've read lots about being tight aggro especially at 2p/4p but this doesnt seem to work for me as either I sit there for hours watching the grass grow, get a hand, bet biggish and gain 6p as everyone folds as obvious I got a good hand.

    Alternative is get big hand and bet small(ish) say 12p - I then get 5 callers with any 2 cards which individually I'm ahead of but collectively will lose to most of the time.

    Ok, lets try something else - widening my range - now not got such a good hand post flop - C-betting seems to be a rude word & doesnt seem to work anyway as I just cant get rid of the fl/str drawers or bottom pair etc.

    Last alternative - cant beat em join em start playing J90 etc. Sure this isnt good 4 my game long term not to mention the more important aspect of I'm not enjoying it!

    To sum up - I find myself playing a quite wide range - j10+ any pair 67+ suited connectors & folding unless I hit big - no moves seem to work as no one thinks about the oppos play (probably guilty of this myself). All in all quite dissatisfying.

    Whats with the raggy Aces???? theres usually at least 5 people playing these every hand unless i got KK then there are 15 of em.

    Any tips would be appreciated
