So far so good

OK so i've logged about 6 hours of sngs between yesterday and today. Here are my stats for my first two sessions:

Since last post
# Tournies Played: 78
Buyin: $6.50
Total Buyins: $507.00
Total Prizes: $572.40
Profit: $65.40
ROI: 12.9

The sample size is obviously beyond insignificantly small. Just posting these stats makes me cringe a little bit because I know they really don't represent anything. Oh well, I'm only two days into phase 1 here. Hopefully in the next few weeks i'll have logged a significant sample to really see how i've been playing.

Six tabling hasn't proved to be too much of a problem. I started off a little slow and I think i played my first session really way too loose early because I wasn't used to the 6 tables at first and was rushing a lot of decisions. By the end of last night i was down 7 buyins over 30 games which is pretty awful. But by that point i had pretty much adjusted to my new setup and was pretty confident going into my session today. I ran hot for an hour and won 4 tournies and didn't stop rollin from there.

I really think these games are super easy. The only problem is they are very very frustrating. I'm having a lot of bad beats put on me, and i'm also having to suckout a lot more to win these bubbles. I'm seeing players making -EV calls with hands like Q9, JT, or A2 against my bubble pushes when they should be only calling ~10% or less due to stacks. This is probably going to increase my variance in these a lot but makes them even easier to beat, i just gotta adjust my push/call ranges a bit in SNGPT to account for the loose donkeys.

There are a TON of loose/aggro donkeys reraising me preflop at 75/150 with junk hands way more so than i'm used to in the 16s. I have raised with AK in middle position and gotten reshoved on by QJo and A4 sooted in spots where the villain really has NO reason to be making these plays. Oh well, these are easy players to exploit it just takes some adjustments which i'm in the process of making.

Tomorrow i'm going to try and play another 30 sngs and then review my first 100 tournies in SNGPT for a couple hours. I prob won't update this again until the weekend.
