I'm just wondering what game you are the best at and which you love the most.

Me, I love turbos and rebuys. And my strong game is in 6 seater turbo SNGs. Now the only thing I have to learn is to stick with what I'm good at. I take all my winnings and donk them away at ring games.:eek:

I am worst during re-buys and low blinds - but once blinds are on the up and re-buys stop I am very good at stealing chips :)

Would agree with 6 seater and turbo

Recently, I've been getting better at big blinds because I find it's soooo easy to steal chips but until yesterday I never really played big blinds and it was really hard for me....

I hate rebuys, love turbos and usually do 6 seater SNGs.

Heads up. If you have $20 play head up. 50%chance to win 75% chance if your good. Keep doing that. 20 to 40. play heads up with 40-80. Pretty soon you will have 1k. Or play the 4 people heads up for faster results=p

This is one of the most hilarious things I've read in a while. I'm hoping it's just meant for humor and not to be taken seriously.

STTs (mainly turbos lately) are my bread and butter. Maybe not because I'm that good at them, but because others are just so bad. Too weak/tight, too aggressive, too this, too that etc.

I just wish I had the patience and discipline to play more of them daily. I tend to get bored and/or frustrated very easily with em :/

Never looked at it that way. I play hold'em. I don't look for other games. I have played 7 stud, Omaha, and a few other games that you just don't see any more.

Actually, I see a bit of wisdom in PSPs post- I think what he's referring to is the 4 player winner take akl double shooters offered at PS. I ued to play a number of them myself, at $10 a pop, 2 matches gets ya $40. I THINK that's what he's referring to- hope I'm not putting words in his mouth, or my foot in mine.

9 seat ring. Although this is a bit forced.


When I started out I felt that I played 45 seat SnGs best, but I don't have the time or patience to play for an hour+ very often. I figured it's better to focus on something and ring games are much more convenient.

I play MTT pretty well, but like NL, I simply can't be arsed to sit down for 4 hours straight every day. cash games' convenient. I can open up 4 tables and play for an hour or so, probably get to see 250-300 hands.

MTT's either freeroll or low buyin (max 30$). Always end up donking away any money i put into ring games. Dont have the patience for it, it seems - or the skills.

Lol my problem too. But I think it's getting out of the mind set for tourneys that is the problem. It's the all or nothing to move on mindset that hurts in ring games.

Shorthanded ring is my favorite and my best for sure. I have been playing in more tourney's recently on FT and am getting better but that part of my game still needs a lot of work. I suck at Donk n Go's but have been running pretty bad at the cash tables as of late and need a little change of scenery for a little while so I might give them another go.

45-90 person SNGs and for ring I'd say I've had the best results at $1/$2 (Not that that means much, only played it once! haha, but still, you don't shake a stick at $800 when you only buoght in with $100)

I dont have the patience for ring games unless its in a live setting. Seems that for every dollar I manage to win in a ring game, I lose two.
MTT holdem and 7 stud make me the most money. If its any indication, I would be far more comfortable with putting up a $50 buy-in for a Stud tourney than I am Holdem. SNG has netted mixed success, but overall my bankroll seems to grow. I do very well in the big freerolls, but a $50 or $100 prize pool wont hold my interest for more than a few levels.
