SNE estimates for personal references

what stakes are you playing and how many tables?

1/2 figures starting at supernova
I'm playing 15-18 tables right now

lol kevin.

this has to be a level.

troll plz
Now help me come up with some motivation techniques. Some of us can't just visualize the whole field of wheat in June or whenever summers are in Regina.

do you think you'd be capable to move to 3/6+ if you 6-10 tabled instead?

Doubt it

I think if you can be realistic and evaluate that even if you spend the time you'd b mindlessly grinding 20 tables on learning, pre-sessions plans and session reviews and thinking harder about every spot, but still not be able to move up at a decently fast rate then I'd go for it.


Its a thing hard to admit though, and feels like giving up If you do have the potential then the obvious would be working hard on moving up to 2/4-3/6 and then going for SNE, as it will be a lot easier to make it there.


This doesn't apply if you are a beast nanonoko and can play a billion tables, make SNE, and learn+improve at the same time, but from what I have seen the majority of SNE grinders tend to lock themselves to their limits.

That's actually what I struggled with, the notion of giving up in poker and succumbing to one of those mindless grind bots I used to look down on. But the facts seem to be that I'm for the most part, undisciplined and unmotivated. I don't seem to want to put the time in to improve, and by maintaining the status quo, I'm actually falling behind my "peers" sort to speak.

theres still tons of room for improvement even if youre playing a ton of tables at the same limit.

Im grinding my ass of next year as well. I plan on grinding 50PLO and eventually 100PLO with a target of 600kVPP's. Obviously the VPP rate is much higher at PLO so it will be less hands for me. I also work full time at an investment bank tho. I plan on making a schedule and grinding about 2 hrs a day during the week plus a bunch on the weekends. GL to both of us!

thats bs, its 2.5M+ hands at fr and you get less vpp/hand at 6m

I think you got your figures crossed there dogmeat

But my plan was to compensate with more hours/tables if after January, I'm not getting 600vpps/hr. We'll see I guess
