MicroMillions-122

PokerStars $2.20

I ran into AA twice at the same table in 10 minutes and lost my first place stack to cooler hands.  But I went on to pull back most of the chips from one and the other went tilt and didn't finish in the money. Still in it to win it but losing to Aces makes it harder, not impossible. I got mocked for pointing I wrote a book on Texas Hold'em after losing to Aces. When I called an all-in bluff with top pair Jacks on a flush board I said "I can read your mind." which was part of my information warfare campaign at the table as I talk about in my book.  I got mocked by the tilt machine that beat me with aces. I replied, "I don't need Aces."  A few hands and lucky cards later I was in the middle of the pack. 30 minutes later he was busted out of the money.

Saturday KO $75,000 Satellite

So close...had aces cracked otherwise I was in the top two.  But the fact is there is convergence of cards factors no player can predict or avoid.

PokerStars Big $109 NLHE

I went from first overall to getting no cards for 9 rounds, to coming back, to losing 3 80% hands in a row (I was the favorite to win at 80% probability) to finishing 13th place. But my book holds the knowledge to compete at #poker at any level and against any opponents. Learn strategies and not just cards. My player types are real players you will find at the table.

Pokerstars NLHE $27 21 out of 824

I cashed for nearly five times my buy-in on a Sunday while I cleaned my rifle.

PokerStars Saturday Micro $3.30 - 5th out of 3100

SCOOP-01

First prize $250,000US... I am in...  https://www.pokerstars.com/scoop/

Pokerstars - Sunday Million $15 NLHE

Guess who's a chip leader in the satellite to the Sunday Million? You can play like me if you read my book.

PokerStars top 2.5% with 5.5 times investment.

I finished 15th out of 597 players - the top 2.5% -  for a total return of  5.564 times my $2.20 investment. 

Pokerstars $11 NLHE 3rd place out of 364 players

In #today's $11 #TexasHoldem NLHE #Pokerstars #poker #tournament, I finished 3rd out of 364 players for a total return of 28.6 times my initial investment for $295.28US.

I am not joke, my book is no joke. Read my book to learn how to play better.

Sunday Storm $11 Pokerstars

I finished at the top of #PokerStars Sunday Storm. Last weekend.  I use the strategies I talk about in my book.

#PokerStars Bit $44 57th

I limped into the money with a long run of no cards so I didn't get very far. Finishing 57th gains me 1.64 times as my original investment.

Pokerstars $7.50 8-table - Top 4

I finished 4th out of 1152 players. I started at the same time as the last tournament, and got lucky Nines versus Kings to make the top 3. But the rest of the tournament I just played the way I know I can.  I took some hands off to take the garbage to the dump. I folded some good hands in tricky low value spots. I bluffed and got caught. I bet the nuts and wiped out players. I folded when I didn't have a good read on a player or a s But otherwise this wasn't taxing nor hard to complete.

My final return was $289.53. Based on my original #investment of $7.50US, that is a return over 8 hours of play and skills I talk about in my book was 38.6 times my initial investment.

Mini-Sunday $3.30 top 1.45% PokerStars

I finished 44th out of 3016 players in a Sunday tournament. I like playing Sunday mornings ( evening in Europe ) because the prize pools are bigger and there are weaker players that are easier to beat. I got lucky Kings versus Aces and caught a King. Otherwise, textbook playing people, position, and representation like I explain in my book.

I invested 3 * $3.30 plus an add-on for $13.20 for a return of 4.78 times my original investment.

Big $3.30 - top 15%

Finished top 15% in #Pokerstars in Big $3.30.  I should have finished higher but I lost my pocket Kings to donk with Ace Ten which gutted my stack right before the money bubble. I cocooned up to preserve my chips and limped into the money. Then I lost a close race.

In conservative terms, investing $3.30 and 3 hours background activity won me a simple 60% return ( not annualized).

I used strategies I talk about in my book.

Big $3.30 - top 7%

277 out of 3784 puts me in the top 7.3% of all players.

I use the system I talk about in my book.

Big $11 - Pokerstars

Woke up at an odd time due to my cold, decided to sit down and read a book, and find out my investments, watch early Squawkbox on #CNBC, and play a tournament in the background. That's how taxing my strategy is to play. Multi-tasking is no problem if you know what to look for in other poker players and how they play. 

Since players play few hands per minute, and you don't need to observe much in play like watching what they are playing from early, middle, and late position there isn't much to making money.  

You raise, reraise, call, and fold and you watch how often and what they play.  That puts very little effort into the task. It makes it a low attention side activity.

I finished 23 out of 690 players. While reading.

If you read my book and develop strategies the way I recommend, your cards don't matter (* as much) and your position doesn't matter. You aren't playing normal. You aren't a fish. You aren't a TAP - tight aggressive player, and so on. You should be playing adaptive ( tight at a loose table, loose at a tight table, reraising weak players in position, reraising bluffs,  check calling landmines, and so on ) so your plays are AUTOMATIC. You are making everyone confused and adapt to you. It doesn't take much effort once you understand. My book is very comprehensive so it's like you've played 1 million hands before you sit down.

I got lucky on a few hands once I made the money. I caught a King and a Queen to save myself at 50 players. I caught a Broadway to beat Aces. But that's normal. You will need to get lucky ( convergence of events - I write about it in my book) to win a tournament or finish in the final table but you can coast into the money if you understand how people are playing and make the right actions ( raise, call, fold, reraise) to perplex them and make them give you chips when they are behind and avoid losing chips when drawing dead.

 

Don't expect to finish top 20 very often at first. Don't expect more than money cash until you get a run of good cards after the money bubble bursts. You still need to win hands to win, but you can use all the other factors - representation, position, player types, and so on to get extra chips and survive in some tournaments.

Easywithaces is a #pokerstars pro that plays low-stakes tournaments these days. In the same tournament he finished 661. That's not always the case, I've watched him finish in the top 20 also. The advantages pros have is they aren't afraid to experiment at low stakes and they aren't afraid of reraises. But they aren't stupid. They play relatively tight. 

I finished 23rd. Investing $11 returned 5.20 times my investment.

And while I was hanging around finishing this tournament, I played another other low-stake tournaments and I placed in the top 6% of 1906 entrants. Two tournaments, two in the money finishes in 3 hours.

Read my book, learn to do this while you watch TV.
