Blah! How Do I Break Out Of Poker Mediocrity?



Posted Wed Jul 19, 2006 6:36 pm GMT by Pifhluk23
So I have been playing for about 3 yrs now mostly just a few home games a month until last year when I started playing online. I probably play 50 or so 11$ sngs per month. But I cant break mediocrity. I go up a little bit down a little bit, stay even for a while etc. pretty much I break even or a small gain. For example here our my last 15 tourneys:

1st: 1
2nd: 2
3rd: 4
4-9: 7

Net: Whopping $8

I play a tight game early and loosen up around 5-6 plyrs.

Is it possible to make decent money playing sngs? Would you lean towards more aggressive or tight?

It is possible to make money playing SnG's. Play a TAG (Tight Aggressive) game.


Also, 50 SnG's is a very very very small sample to be deducing results from. Poker is about the big picture.
