I am currently platinum star and it has took around 7 weeks to get there playing solid tag. I play 00.01 - 00.02 zoom 4 tables and 00.02 - 00.05 zoom 5 tables and 00.05 - 00.10 zoom 1 table for around 4-5 hours each day.

i see around 2000+ hands per hour and by law of averages will pick up AA KK AK'S QQ JJ TT AQ'S around eight percent of hands dealt or so i think. It is a quickish method and you don't need as big of a bankroll as you might think. I made a sub bankroll so i can do this method dedicated only to zoom multi - tabling only to earn fpp's. I also have a sng method but requires a larger bankroll play 50 dollar sngs 10 each time and they don't take long 6 handed.. i don't mind if i bust buy into another all about earning fpp's and being supernova. Just thought i'd share with you a little strategy. Not soley my idea seen it on youtube but it is a great method.

I don't get it :confused:

what's the 'trick'?

Also, pretty sure TT+, AKs, AQs, you're getting dealt ~3%

So using your method you only play AA KK AK'S QQ JJ TT AQ'S? Sounds soooo boring :(

The amount of rakeback you will eventually get will be insignificant compared to what you make by putting the same amount of time and effort into improving and moving up levels and getting a decent winrate.

Maybe. But that is not solid TAG. It is poor nit. Are you at least breakeven? Can you post some graphs ?

lol ...i tried it for half an hour the other day 4 2nl zoom and 4 5nl zoom and couldn't play that nitty and ended up 13/9 +$15 and 14 vpps .

(100,000/365)/28 is 9.78 hours per day every day and you'd get supernova at new years eve..........doesn't seem that fast to me.I think OP is underestimating how many VPPs his SNGs are providing.

I think read PLO and OH/L was the "easy" way to get SN or SNE (as if there is a easy way to do it).

Im totally missing point of that strategy, except loosing money.

Its 6-max, so in 100 hands, you will pay about 25BBs in blinds.
During that, you will enter the pot 3-times (2.9 to be precise).
How much you could win in that 3-times? Are you pushing all those hands? How deep?

I think you will mostly win 1.5BB when all others folded. And when called, you will often hit something like TT/JJ vs AK/AQ and just flip.

i did it with FR tables as get more vpps per $ of rakeand less likely to time out and stacked the tables

Brain damage. You could learn poker and do the same thing with 4 tables at 25NL in less time. It is possible as he said but you are not going to crush it and you will learn nothing it that is your goal. Still you will need to learn to multitable and strict discipline.

Nice example was my short session today.
About 50 hands, and I got TT, JJ and AA (so double the expected rate of premium hands).
Results:
TT lost to QQ
JJ lost to KK
AA, minraise, all fold = win 1.5BB (and I was not playing like nit the other hands)

Overall I lost like 20BB (because I was not playing push-fold).

So your strategy can work only with short-stack, which is less then 25BB and I dont think you can buy-in under 40BB, thats why its called short-stack strategy. Plus you need to play a bit more hands (according position).
