HUSNGs on Global Poker
Starting a new blog as I switched the games I'm playing. My goal for this blog is to basically just record the ups and downs as I attempt to climb the stakes and eventually reach the top of the HUSNG ladder on Global Poker. I think this is doable, but time will tell if it's something I can achieve.
My screen name on Global is zayd88. If anyone wants a game feel free to sit me and let me know that you saw the thread.
My progress so far has been stunted by busting a roll playing blackjack, so I blocked Casino games on my account. I basically bought 25 SC for $5, grinded it up to 190ish, experienced some variance that brought me back to 150ish then experienced some more and took my roll to blackjack. Bye bye bankroll. It was probably normal variance (the type I'll probably be experiencing a lot), so I just need to get better mentally.
Anyways, I'm playing the $3.21 games and will be shot taking the $8.56 games once I have 33 buy-ins (a 3 buy-in shot, rinse and repeat if it doesn't work out). I used the same shot taking structure when I played on Stars years ago, hopefully it works out.
I don't know what else to put in the OP other than that I hope Global Poker lowers the rake on HUSNGs (it's 7% right now, for turbos) and starts doing rewards for SNGs. I don't know if they will do SNG rewards, but it would be nice if they did.
Well I guess that's it for the OP, gl to anyone reading this.

Well that's over with. I busted my bankroll chasing my losses. Won't be doing it again, the HUSNGs were driving me nuts anyways. Seriously glad it happened though, $25 to see the nastiness of poker. The only way I play again is if I deposit on Stars or ACR again and grind micro cash games. As successful as I was with HUSNGs I clearly don't have the mental fortitude to grind them.
Ok, so you're putting up an ROI of 15.1% (if zayd88 is you), but you're also busting your roll. Something doesn't add up.

I chased my losses when I was grinding micros and busted my roll. Don't know what to say man. I haven't done THAT again, but I did bust another roll playing blackjack, lol. I don't know what you mean though?

I put it in the wrong thread. Meant to reply in the HUSNG regs one. But my point stands.. you claimed to be basically the #1 husng reg listed on Sharkscope, despite busting at the micros? Doesn't add up.

No I didn't... you misread what I wrote. There are most likely better players than me, lol.

Looks to me like he wrote that he was #1 at the $3.20 stake. Not overall
You can easily have a high ROI overall and lose it all in a few high stakes games. I used to do that all the time in HUSNG around black Friday

Nope... I was just writing that I was one of the biggest winners on sharkscope or something (just to give information, I wasn't bragging).
