Bad as i hate to ill even take a lil Full Rigged money. Cant do any worse. My pots won at showdown % at Stars is at 38% in the last 6 days.......It usually runs around 60%...and thats on the few hands ive played. Just sat thru my 2nd re buy in the past 12 hours and i played total in BOTH combined 5 hands. 5 hands in 2 hours of rebuys...

Looking for like $250-300 but will trade anything over 75.......no paypal or bs like that so dont pm about it...

I hear ya PPP... The variance seems to be insane on Stars.

Granted, I usually play 16-114 PL08 Tubo SNGs - variance thru the roof, but it just seems you need to have the fortitude of a saint !

Last two 60s I played last night, down to 4 players, my chip stack always at top or close, around 3-5k....it lasted forever, Must have been a dozen showdowns, all spilt pots or the low stack doubling. Many many miracles by the short stacks.

At least 5 mins 4 handed in both, and I bubbled in both, with really strong hands 4 handed.

Needless to say, nearly chucked the laptop out the window.

Full Rigged is sounding better and better ! :ohno:

Just a quick update...Maybe Stars read this and were afraid of me leaving...turned off my Doomswitch...Been running real hot since this post - killing the 16-114 O8 Turbo SNGs.

Last 20: 6 wins, 3 second, 5 thirds.

Set up one of your Stars tournies, Shdw, I'm ready to donate.

Forgot to add...Hasn't all been perfect.

Been taking a few shots in the hyper-turbos, as people tend to make really bad money mgmt decisions, especially around blind increase-time.

On the bubble for a $215 seat, forced to shove small stack with K5s....Up against QJ. Ok not bad right ? Flop K 5 2 rainbow...Gravy, right? Nosir. Turn: A, River: T. BLAMO.

I played 1 hyper turbo...1 more and i would join my ex-wife in the nuthouse!! Lets just say if your prone to TILT problems ...like a few ppl we know.....these things are like eating cyanide out the bottle.

I saw you in that SNG the other day, i didnt chat cus, well for 1 cus i got put out in like 6 hands...lol but also i think we may have done some money transfers together and id hate for Stars to get the idea we were team working....They just busted some guys either in those SNG's or the Omaha Dbl ups...they sent me some money but wouldnt say where i had lost it at. So im just being extra careful.
I should post the HH for that SNG, it was like 4 hands in a row where i had a dbl suited wrap in my hand and flopped an open end straight and flush draw and all 4 hands hit none of em...on 1 of them i needed like a 3 or a 7 for the straight and when they turned em over, 1 guy had 33 in his hand and the other had 77.....

Im down over $1500 in the last 60 days and although i constantly bitch about no cards i cant really say im running horribly...2 nights in a row im deep in the 80K and just cant get the 1 hand i need to push me into the big money. Ill be out of the hole or broke by the weekend thats for sure........lol

No worries on the chat PPP, I understand.

I love the o8 SNG chat. Anytime someone gets sucked out, the bitter chat starts up...High comedy for me, really.

The best was last night, couple limpers at the 50/100 level, small blind pushes with AA2x; button calls with A49J, all spades.

Of course spades gets there, no low. AA2x guy goes freekin nuts in chat. Every single hand these two go at it, bitching about each other's stats, etc. Eventually moderator shows up and silences everyone, but I was nearly on the floor laughing.

Agree on the tilt/hyper turbos. But it's amazing the bad play, near the bubble/short stacks. Varying playing speed based on blind coutdown (may need to speed to catch the lower blind)/chance of reseat/etc right before hand-for-hand can make a huge impact. Plus no rake.

But yeah, losing as a decent sized fave in a hyper-turbo seems to hurt more, because there are no second chances and it's your stack every time.

GL to ya PPP.

Of course I never should have made the posts above - the doomswitch has been activiated.

Came up blank in 2 60s, 3 38s, and got 3rd in 1 of 2 27s. OUCH. :ohno:

Did hit a 37$ hyper turbo for a 109 seat before I finally called it a night, sucked out with Q3 over A6 to cash. Almost makes up for the horrible night!
