From $0.05 SNG to $200 SNG my 3 year poker Journy

JuiceBox69
Fucking on Young N Dumb Chicken Heads
About the time it's my trip to Detroit I will be moving up to the highest stakes available for any American live or online in the poker format known as Texas Holdem SNG ( Single Table Tournament)

The highest level is currently $200 buy in with 6-10 others making the prize pool $1,200-$2,000 with #1 place taking home $800-$1,000 of the prize

It's crazy to know I started just 3 years ago grinding it out daily with $0.05 SNG games

If I can succeed for the next 3 years at that level I should be ready to play $1,000 buy in but if the US government hasn't fixed banking issues with gambling websites I will be forced to at least spend 6 months out of the year in Canada.

I find this hilarious because as stated in past threads on poker I'm looking into moving to Jersey or Florida then out to Vegas or California to play live cash poker games in limit holdem, no limit holdem, pot limit Omaha and 7 card stud

But the game I crush the most is the SNG games and casinos don't offer this in the live...hell you can online find them online with the highest stakes ranging from $1,000-$5,000 at the highest.

Since it's my bread and butter over all other formats that I'm crushing I need to follow the money.

This is leading me to have to consider within my near distant future to consider staying in Canada for six months out if the year once I can afford the $1,000 buy ins with the aspirations of achieving the highest SNG stakes of $5,000 per buy in.

Figure if I can achieve this then when I got to come back into the States for the other 6 months I will go to Vegas and California to play live cash and enter the $1,000-$10,000 MTT ( Multi Table Tournaments)

As for now I'm currently grinding 5-10 hours daily $50 SNG with Jun July being when I move to the highest US sng stakes at $200 to grind

The rest is speculation and dreams on if I succeed what my next moves will be in the next 3-6 years and what that might look like

I hope in this time period the US government has shit straighten out with the casinos and online sites to bring the regulated sites and higher stakes back to the US markets for poker players

Bet online, Ignition, Inter Tops, America Card rooms are the best current poker sites that accept US players and yes your money is going to China or Costa Rica...and yes the checks usually come back to you by FedEx from a Bank Usually in Canada and usual the French side lol

The best sites for the rest if the world and maybe again one day USA

Poker Stars, 888, Party Poker, Full Tilt ( now owned by Poker Stars)

Juice: "If I can succeed for the next 3 years at that level"

But the players/bots must be get better (on average) as you move to higher limits, no?

Oh, wait, according to jestie214 it's hard to beat bad players because of all the stupid stuff they do. Beating good players is easier.

True...this year was the first year the IG won in the annual scientific get together study with some of the top head's up poker players

I'm not worried about this because of my understanding of the game of single table tournaments in general

A profit can be made...you just need a 50 buy in bankroll to weather the variance and need longer hours in the grind to squeeze out the profit

I wouldn't play high stakes head's up...or cash

But I think and believe the full ring or short handed cash games along with the single table and multi table tournaments will always be fine to play even with game theory optimal bots playing.

It's in the math and as long as you got the correct bankroll and game theory you will make a profit

"holy shit Juice did you just use the word variance and use it correctly?" - Yes, this fucking guy with Down Syndrome has his moments.

Juicy, I'm going to bet that nobody on here has played in more poker rooms from Montreal, to California to the Caribbean than me. Granted, I'm sure you and many others on here spend much more time at the tables or on-line that I do, but I've been just about everywhere, sitting down at the Encore/Wynn in Vegas, or a shitty VFD charity poker room in some random suburb of Pittsburgh, PA, to a shady poker room at a dog track in Southwest Florida.

One of the most interesting places I have ever played was Montreal. There are several poker rooms "off the island" and you'd lose your mind there, great strip clubs, full service massage parlors and cheap hookers which are "technically" legal.

knock your socks off:

The post makes no sense at all to me. No big deal at all about in person sit n go's. I play at Mohegan Sun and sit n go's have buy ins beginning at $60. - paying 2 places with $350.00 to first - all the way up to $5,000.00 buy ins which pay 3 places with $25,000.00 for first, down to $10,000.00 for third. Club Desire is 40 miles.

I haven't found any land based casinos that hold SNG any more...most SNG guys play statlites and sell the tickets off for money instead of playing in the larger buy in tournament that the ticket allows them to

Online even in Nevada and Jersey online the stakes for a 6 Max single table tournaments is no greater than $200

Juice- Mohegan Sun Casino - Connecticut - similar stakes at Foxwoods casino - same general area - both casinos have at least 45 - 60 tables - You will not find much action on the higher amount sit n go's unless there is an event at either casino that drags in tournament players - i would guess most are $300 - $500 max

Hey Juice,

Why not skip Canada and simply head out to Vegas? Lots of card rooms, lots of tournaments every day.

Or, at least, head out for a couple week vacation and give it a go. I wouldn't mess around with the live-in-Canada-6-months-a-year thang.

Aces,
