I've been playing Zoom. Its a great game, extremely addictive though.
Tough to imagine playing on a platform without it.
I Figured it out pretty well thx to some good coaching and common sense, been calling the NL100/NL200 games home (4 tabling sometimes and 8 others)
Have had some pretty big swings, but the games are pretty straightforward, although they get pretty tough at times.
WSOP's are 10 minutes from my house in Ottawa circuit events Nov 13-Nov 24th (16th/18th/20th are the 1.5k bi) other days are 365-580)
doing mostly nl100/nl200 + mtts sundays (do a few random ones here n there too)
oh, im on my own etc too which is cool
graphs so far....today was brutal..happens though. good at handling it by now.
I imagine this can get some good controversy going on. Come sit with me if you dispute me. 
(unless ur a hsnler!)
I lost like 25k in MTT's for John after a 2 week break, (was sick)...it was the most brutal time of my life (felt like atleast!)...
Good ol CG's have been semi decent, so I'm just working there stayign up here, doing a few mtt's til things get flyin there again I imagine.
Playing Zoom has been something I been waiting to do anyways - although stars not getting into the states on the 26th sux, I will be here til February, so gives usa more time for the platform. IMO thats where all the $$ will be made during the boom..if/when we get Cali etc 2 grind w/ the 3 states...
Lifes been fun, I'm a lil tilted, be better when i wake up, you guys know how sick some of these sessions are... I haven't been posting hands, cuz I wasn't sure if i was going 2 be at NL200 and I don't really want to share my lines yet in most scenarios, like my edge... I'll start posting some interesting hands tomorrow though.
I'm gonna dedicate myself to this and keep getting as much coaching as I can, I think I can be a top nl100/nl200 zoom player very soon.
Run good play good, game change rant, so fucking sick of 15 hour mtt days, although will always do em sometimes. I've been beating online 6m cg's since 2009ish, was always just too greedy.
stoned.......movietime
Sunday - lets do a teamviewer MTT session, I'll 6 table all day most likely and explain things. PM me for my skype; one time coaching gift @ MTT's for the LPers that want to be good at them/understand them.

Problem is we all knows cash games are way more enjoyable than MTT's. You can quit any time, your profit is immediate, your perceived winnings are greater, you get to see the results of your work every hour, etc. Lets be honest, nobody says I want to be a MTT grinder when I grow up. I think what makes a good MTT player is someone very adept at shorter stack play. Someone good at reading your opponents intention, fold or shove, lot of preflop meta game stuff, your ability to exploit their likely reaction to certain table dynamics. Cash games seem to be all about deepstack play, understand ranges properly, how to get max value on the river instead of preflop or on the flop. I think thats why you excel in MTT's and not CG's. Thats probably why you're doing ok in zoom. It kinds plays out like a MTT in a way. You have a lot of standard lines of play you can execute to manipulate the hand in your favor, putting people in situations where they just opt to fold instead of play back like they would in a normal ring game. It's just not worth it to them, they'll look for a better spot, like in a MTT. I'm worried man, 16k hands is a lot. You're going to get hooked on this thing and even if you start losing you wont want to quit, you'll just want to try harder to plug your leaks and stay in the game. Money runs out, backer gives up, and off to busto-ville. Make yourself a promise; set like an overall stoploss goal. If you lose 4k then quit cash all together and go back to purely MTT's until you win it back. |

Good luck. Zoom can get kinda tilting in a weird way though but that's probably cause I play it on anon tables and nothing runs above 100 |

Or it's probably just me cause I have more fun playing PLO HU SNGs |

And newb is spot on about the folding thing. Especially on anonymous tables |
