STT Strategi

[Penelopeys]

Hi. The steady dollars I make online is playing stt on Sporting Odds. Since I started out last summer, I have raised my buy in from 5, 10, 20 to 30 dollar stt. I often get in the money, and I play very patiently and wait for the good hands, and for the cowboys to fight eachother. BUT... I have found out something... recently I tried playing 50 dollar stt and in that you start with 2000 chips..... That makes a huge difference for the patient player... In the last four 50 dollar stt I played I got in the money, and yesterday I tried out a 100 dollar... patiently I waited and came in 2nd. So, if u play stt... try to attend the ones with a 2000 startingstack!!! ...and then be patient.... ;)

Re: STT Strategi Pene I did ok in the SO 5 player tables where the starting chips was 1500, often finishing in the money (top 2). But I was only playing $3 games, so no great profit. But my account did go from $17 to $61 before I withdrew it all t'other day. I definitely agree that because you start with more chips (1500) than in similar STT's on other sites (e.g. 6paks on Cryptologic sites or Turbo games on Prima sites - starting chips only 1000), it does favour the patient player. And you can afford calling the BB occasionally with a slightly weaker but still good hand without the fear of your chips dwindling away. Unfortunately, I never tried highering my stakes because I was afraid my luck would change and I would lose everything I had built up. With regards to the 2000 chips, on the cheaper tables you only got 2000 starting chips on the TV table, 1500 elsewhere. Do all (not just TV table) greater buy-in games start with 2000 chips? If I ever do get back to playing online poker (gone a whole 36 hours without playing so far :ok), SO may be where I restart because I did do well there... and, of course, that is where the DU is :notworthy . With regards to the TV tables on SO, does anyone know where they are televised? I could never find them. And why did the TV tables always take forever to fill up? Is it because players were scared that everyone would see how crap they play? :D
