My junk just shrunk up inside me looking at the numbers you guys are throwing around I feel so inadequate!!!! Think more positive than that dude! Sure there are going to be aweful bad beats like we discussed in PM's but if you play at least 20 today, I would imagine you would get pretty deep in one or two of them. I guess reading all this I have to keep in mind that I am still working a cube job from five days a week. Pretty impressive stats all around guys. Might need to take a few days of vacation and see what grinding a full schedule is like.
Considering I normally play 5 days a week, and that overall I took about 2 months off, that'd mean I've played days, give or take. That's an average of almost 52 tourneys a day when I play. More MTTs on the weekends but less 90's. Only play about 3 days per week though. I'm going to try and increase that number. I am reg'd for 24 today which seems to be about normal for me. You've been at every goddamn table of mine lately To answer the question, though I'm kind of on Deoxy's level.
I play, honestly, days a week, tourneys a day I guess my average this year has been 5 days a week of around 30 mtts per day. If I get over 6 on my laptop I get all fked up. Some of these numbers are just ridiculous. And a good setup is everything. I wouldn't be able to play a lot of tables without having two extra screens on my laptop.
Threads like these get me motivated to go play more pokies Now I understand why you post. Its brilliant!! I'm not terribly upset about missing a hand here and there cause playing a ton of tables you have to figure that will happen now and then but when I'm sitting out for a half our because I dont realize it I'm not happy. A full volume day for me is about 40 tourns spread over about 6 hours of registration.
Lately I just register like pm or pm, just because I'm not enjoying playing that much. It varies I still can't discipline myself to play a given amount of days a week and start at a given time. I know some very successful regulars who only play like 10 a day, more on Sunday, and do other stuff cash, SNGs if they bust unusually fast. Some people just don't have time to play that kind of insane slate.
You are quickly going to recognize which tournaments are not worth playing because you are continually going to end up one tabling them. It can be very annoying to one table for 3 hours a low stake tournament where you are making 0.
The most straightforward advice would be to skip slow and deep structured mtts that start at the end of your registering time period. To create an optimal playing schedule, you need to research the tournament offers on all the poker sites available to you. It can be valuable to have an account on smaller sites even just to play a couple of tourneys here and there. Some players register all the desired tournaments at the beginning of their sessions others wait till the start of the tournaments.
I personally like to register them a couple of minutes after the start because you usually get less reg infested tables table filed with professionals. I have an alarm clock application where I input all the tournaments, and when the mtt starts, I get a notification. Playing a sufficient amount of tournaments is crucial for long term success as a pro player. Tournament professionals play somewhere between and mtts per month.
That number depends on multiple factors:. It is necessary to put in a sufficient volume of mtts. Otherwise, it can take way too much time for you to realize your EV. Tournament grind can be very grueling, and it is very common for players to go on losing or breakeven stretches that can last for months.
This is especially true if you are mainly playing large-field tournaments. Odds of winning a major tournament are stacked against you from the get-go. It is very important to have a diversified list of tournaments that consist of a lot of small field tournaments and some major ones that can bring you that big score that every player is dreaming of.
A necessary skill of tourney pro is the ability to multi-table. Everybody can open ten tables, but to play them effectively is a skill that is learned over time. You have to be so comfortable with your game that you can make quick decisions. You have to accept that you will play less than optimal when mass multi-tabling. Your ROI per mtt will drop with the number of tables, but your hourly rate will increase with a higher volume.
The standard strategy to increase the number of tables is to add them slowly with time. You have to be comfortable with six tables before you start thinking about adding more.
The selection of tournaments is very player dependent. Only you know which types of tournaments suits you the most and where you have the strongest track record. Your ROI will vary depending on the tournament type. In slow structured tournaments, achievable ROI is much higher than in turbos Find out why in this article. Mind also that 6max tournaments take more focus then full ring , so if you intend to mass multi-table, try to avoid playing too many of them.
To outplay them, you will have to pick up some reads, which will be hard if you are 12 tabling. The field size of the tournaments massively influences the variance that you are going to suffer.
Small field tournaments offer a more steady income, while in large fields, it might take a huge volume for you to realize your EV. And since variance is big as it is in MTTs, you want to mitigate it somehow. Including a lot of small field tournaments in your playing schedule is a great way to mitigate the variance. ABI is the sum of all your buy-ins divided by the number of tournaments played.
As you see you can still be very flexible when it comes to the size of a BI and still follow the guidelines of healthy bankroll management. You should include the softest tournaments that you can find for your BI range.
You can just play a tournament a couple of times and observe how tough the field is. But there is another option that gives you a more analytical assessment of tongues of the field. With the application Sharkscope , we can search for the tournament in interest, and as a result, we will get a stat: the average ability of the tournament Check the picture below. The lover that number the softer is the tournament.
Each tournament has its ID that can be found in the tourney lobby. When you type that number in the Sharkscope search engine, you get a tournament report that provides av.
If you are taking your games seriously , you have to invest in the additional poker software. Analytical poker tools are getting cheaper and user-friendlier every year. Manual hand analysis that used to needed expert knowledge is now automated to a point where you can just paste HH into a tool and press calculate. It goes without saying that HH hand history tracking program is a must and they are widespread among the poker pros. It tracks your results and provides HUD Heads-up display when you are playing.
HUD provides excellent support , especially when you are mass multi-tabling. Without it, you are unable to follow all the action at the tables. For gathering additional information about your opponents, you have to have access to a global database with tournament results. Sometimes it is enough to know whether somebody is a regular or recreational player when deciding on a hero call or fold.
If you want to have a sharp push fold strategy which is necessary , you always need to analyze HH with tools like ICMizer. These sorts of programs offer you preflop solutions to situations that continuously occur in tournament poker. As a poker professional, you have to work on your game continually. The skills that were enough in may not be enough in and beyond , so it is necessary not to stay stagnant.

But if a player plays 5 days a week and say 20 days a month, thats about 25 mtt a day. Otherwise the variance will eat you up eventually. However, this is highly variable and depends on the number of players, the size of the starting stack, how careful players are, and other factors. But thanks to the randomized prize pools that profit can sometimes be huge. In cash games you buy-in with your own money, the blinds always stay the same and you leave whenever you want.
In tournaments though, you pay a buy-in in order to receive some chips.
