skrizy i think at 20 buy ins is a good time to filter in one or two higher limit game tables. it makes the transition smooth as when you hit 30 bi you are comfortable with the flow.

Had my first Royal Flush today on Bodog. The best part I actually got paid off for it. $5 SNG, still currently playing will come back and edit with results.
OKay, been done for a while but just getting back to post results. Finished 2nd in this SNG. Got donked by 10-2o. Guy bluffed huge and I held KK. All-in he calls and hits 10 on flop 2 on river. Was still nice to get my first Royal flush.

I qualified for the Midnight Madness on Full Tilt by winning a 90FPP tourney and then managed to finish 206 out of 2776 to win $19.86. First time I have made it into this tourney, made for a late night/early morning.

man some of you guys doing real well... what are you guy's view on starting hands at the casino? My natural tendancy is to play lots of hands and be very aggressive (started out playing lots of sngs - late game strategy) but found I got killed in cash games... have since trimmed my starting hands to like folding kj utg, kt mp etc... found its really helped my results at the casino... and cut the variance heaps too... still quite aggressive though. Really interested to hear what you guys think?
Another point, just been reading Doyle Brunson's super system, where he calls kq,aq and below trouble hands??!?! I love those hands? sure you need a bit of caution... but otherwise you're only playing ak and pairs?

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
