Taking a Break.

I have only played 20 Sit and Gos over the last ten days or so due to the nice weather we've been having. In the 20 that I have played I am up $95 and running right at 50% ROI over that period of time. This week I am going to put in a better effort of getting in more games and also returning to play at PokerStars to start clearing the bonus that they have currently running. These last 20 Sit and Gos have increased my Avg. ROI at PokerRoom up to 26%. I feel that the games going on in PokerRoom might be hard to leave due to how soft they are.

PokerRoom

I have just completed my sign up bonus at PokerRoom for $120. I have had many things going on in the last couple weeks so it took me almost two weeks to clear this bonus and play 115 SNGs. PokerRoom has very loose-aggressive players at these low limits. On PokerRoom I play under the screen name BigPivel. During the 115 SNGs:

I played
55 - $5 SNGs.
60 - $10 SNGs.

AVG. ROI 19%
AVG. PROFIT PER SNG $1.55 WITHOUT BONUS - $2.59 WITH BONUS.

Total profit: $178+$120 bonus= $298

I included Avg per SNG with and without bonus just to show the big difference that a bonus can make especially at these low limits.

Goals and Accomplishments.

Welcome to Pivel's Poker blog. Some of my poker goals and accomplishments will be listed here on a regular basis. Currently on Poker Stars I play under the name of Pivel at low limit Sit and Go's. Currently I have played 453 games with an Avg. Stake of $6 and my Avg. Return on Investment is at 33% for a Total Profit of $1,026. My goal is to make it onto the sharkscope leaderboard at this level before moving up to higher stakes.

Some of my most current results:

188 SNGs PLAYED:

1st - 33/188 = 17.5% +$561
2nd - 34/188 = 18% +$459
3rd - 24/188 = 13% +$216
4th-9th - 97/188 = 51.5% -$533
ITM = 48.5%

TOTAL = $703 PROFIT
AVG PER SNG = $3.74 PROFIT
