...
If you try gus or daniels style in a Online SNG, then your reslults will dramtically drop, trust me i know because i tried it out a few months ago. ABC poker is the only way to go with the faster tourneys.


The Pokerstars Deepstack tournaments are slower than almost any other tournament on the planet - they might be a good place to experiment if you want to try and bring elements of these 2 styles into your play.


Yep or the APAT tourneys! Word of caution if you wanna play the stars deepstackers- they are VERY VERY VERY deepstacked!!!

There is an interesting thread on 2+2 where Jimmy Fricke (Gobboboy) gives his account for some of the hands, particularly when they were HU.  You need to start from about post #133.  The thread does deteriorate unfortunately in true 2+2 style as people start trading insults.

That"s one helluva thread on 2+2 - almost as long as the book itself!!

... and how much of a pounding does Gobboboy take ... ?

Fair dues to him though, he sticks with it (as far as I"ve read to anyway).

I couldnt get over the number of posts many of the regulars on there have..... loads seem to have 4000+, and a handful upward of 15000. Perhaps they are professional forumites, or more likely they have little else to do....

Puts Kinboshi to shame!!

just to echo what george2loose said about how deep stacked the pokerstars tourneys are.......

i played in one not so long ago, on a saturday night.

$20 +$2 buy in....450 players and it started at about 11.15 pm.....i went bust at 6.30 am and came in at 24th i think....

there is so much room to try different styles and tactics, and get a feel for you table. I reckon if it was not so late (or early) i would have done better.

As a side note, iv also seen chris moneymaker playing in these.....lol.
