Drop the MTT's and go back to the 18 runner events on pokerstars mate. They pay first four and it is beatable consistently. Yes you don't pile up huge amounts of cash, but it is very satisfying having been a gambler all my life who has done my b0ll0cks on a consistent basis to finally find something i can win at, albeit in my case at a miniscule level because of my previous addictions. Football bets on who will win the title and stuff I can have a nice few quid on, but I play poker pretty much everyday so I have to keep it tiny.

I have had the old ROI over 20% but went through a suck out period where it almost dropped to break even point. It's climbed a bit now, and I reckon I'm making about 20p an hour which is absolutely awesome Check me out on Pokerstars/Sharkscope-Mickthemunch. King of the $1.50 tables 

I think 20p an hour is beating me atm, Thats one thing I have never done as a poker player is work out my expected hourly rate and all the major books and systems tell you to do it. I just didnt think it was viable if I was moving from ring games to SNGs and MTTs and so forth.

By the way Mick 20% ROI is a very good return and is usually a sign that you are ready to move up stakes, it referred to as "beating the game" at that particular level. My stats are awful this year! Sayin that my 5-9 player stats are between +25-30% but MTT is a disgrace, havn't had a decent lift all year, never mind a win.

You can check me out as burjennio (Im one of the few who gets to use their own nickname without 10 numbers at the end of it) playing at Full Tilt on a sight called officialpokerrankings.com its a site that can keep you up to date on your winnings and overall online ranking (I was in the top 99.01% overall last year  or 8,518th of 862,428 total tracked online players) I made a modest profit but sadly I didnt keep strict bankroll management and started chasing when I was on a cold streak, and you gotta know how that usually ends. Now Im back grinding at the micros, losing my mind when people call my all-in bluffs on a 2 pair board with a f*cking flush.

Now I know how Stu Ungar felt

My placings from my last eight tournaments of 18 particpants (I say "tournament" safe in the knowledge that as it costs less than a packet of 10 fags to enter, it's actually no such thing) are as follows. One first, two seconds, two thirds and three nowhere's (all of which were the result of coming off on the wrong side of a beat). My worst beat in htere was tempting a numpty all in pre flop, like a firely to the flame he couldn't leave it alone. I re raised his raise, and his re-re-raise with an all in push. Like a fool he shoved and imagine his anguish when he saw my AA dwarfing his A10. Course it all looked a bit different when the flop came J Q K, and though I couldn't actually see his finger pointing provocatively through the screen in my direction, nor hear the song he was singing, I knew the title anyway.

He was singing "YOU'RE NOT SINGING ANYMORE!!!, YOU NOT SI-IN-GI-ING ANYMORE". He was right too, I wasn't.

Anyway, apart from that fecker , still just about about managing to beat the game. I am tempted to go up into the heady hieghts of the $3 entry fee, but may instead stay where I am and start playing eight tables at once as opposed to four. We'll see.
