SNG rush today
Friday, August 12 01:00:00 PM 2005
Came home from work, hopped on Party, and hit a very nice rush. Three first places in a row, followed by a second place when ATs ran in to AKo heads up and didn't improve. Thats the best consecutive SNG rush i've experienced at any level, and doing it two-tabling the $20+2 made me feel pretty good. Total SNG stats for today: 10 played, 60% ITM, 136% ROI. Four 1st, two 2nd, two bubbles, an eighth (re-raised a small stack's minraise from the BB with suited broadway, he called with a small pocket pair and I didn't improve) and a tenth (KK cracked by A7o building a wheel with runner-runner, money all-in preflop).

This moves me to 32.86% ITM lifetime on the $20+2 with a massive 6.5% ROI with 70 played at this level. However I'm a more reasonable 40% ITM with 22% ROI for my last 35. Certainly not a big enough sample size to extrapolate consistent returns, but certainly moving in the right direction.

Thursday update: just time for 3 SNGs tonight - just single tabling while doing other work on the computer in between hands. 2/3 ITM with a first and a third, 112% ROI. That jumps me to 42.11% ITM with 29.19% ROI for the month and lifetime $20+2 SNG stats of 34.25% ITM with 10.83% ROI.

Made a massive comeback on the third place finish - I had 300 chips left with 50/100 blinds and eight people left. Was able to steal at all the right times, get doubled up once with a dominating hand (AQ vs A5) and once with a dominated hand (A7 vs A8, caught a seven). Ended tied in chips with another short stack when ITM, pushed with 33 and was called by AK - ace on the river and my comeback is done, but I'm very happy just clawing to ITM.

In a personal note, i've decided to stop lurking so much and start posting more on 2+2 (in the past I've only dispensed sports betting advice over there). I've taken a lot of great advice from the forums there the past year, especially the STT forum, and I'd like to start contributing if I feel I can add any value - even if its just asking the right questions of the right people...
