No shortage of fish

I thought this might come in handy for people that are making money but want to make more. Don't get impatient, play your game as solid as you can and results will come.

I was a little shocked to see that I'm the only person in the black. Really does something for your confidence when you see that you are the only player at the table making money.

Go to - No shortage of fish

Hope this helps some of you.

From the link, it seems pretty clear to me that he is referring to the players on his tables. That is the only data provided by the link.

Exactly! Drawn 20 random opponents and all are in the red. I think without seeing stats like these people that are winning forget how many bad players there actually are in the world of online poker.

If I was the only person on the network that was in the black, I'd stop sleeping

Nice post Custo, I was feeling a bit down about my game lately, but I sharkscoped my table and there was only one other player that was in the black !! Its nice to be reminded that I can play this game, well SNGs at least, better then most.

Thank you duff! And I am exactly the same. When I have a beat put on me, 2 outer on the river or similar, and the opponent has the audacity to start talking trash, it's a little comforting to know that in the grand scheme of things I'm a winner and their a loser, without needing to be an arrogant prick back to them.

Thats what I'm playing atm, 4xSTT SnG's. ~80% ITM rate is phenomenal!!! Is there one site you have more success at the another? Patience is certainly one of the most key elements of beating SnG's. If you're ever up for a sweat session, let us know. My ITM rate hovers around the 60%, like to see what your doing to keep you in the 80's. Let us know if your interrested.

Cheers left.
