Even though I may have said similar things in the past about my poker game, now it's real. And with that I mean now I have proven it. And let me start by saying it is only over a relatively small sample size, but I do think I have proven my tactics work if I just put in enough volume.
So, here's what I did. From the first of April I have only played 1 type of sit and go, so it's very easy to check my stats on Official Poker Rankings. I have stuck to playing only the '$3.30 Turbo + Knockout with 90 players on Full Tilt Poker. Here's what's showing for April 2009 so far :
89 games played
13 times in the money (15%)
Profit $160
ROI 64%
Now anyone into poker statistics will say to you that first of all 89 games is not enough of a sample size to mean much and second of all an ROI of 64% is ridiculously high ! But I think it does prove a point. If you just play lots and lots of these tourneys, the edge that you have on the field becomes apparant.
Now I had played lots of poker before and done ok so far, meaning I did have a positive ROI on several sites; but I had been playing so little volume and so many different games it was hard to find out exactly how well I was doing. I'm going to stick with these $3 sngs until I reach a $600 bankroll and then try the $6 ones. I will keep track of my progress here so stay tuned !!
