Looking to be a SNG Pro?

**curtydagreat** · 02-16-2007

Hello,

For those who wish to improve at poker, namely beginners or people who break even or are losing, I will offer free lessons. I am looking for people to add to my referalls through Full Tilt Poker, so this would be for people who have not yet played on Full Tilt. I would consider those who have played on Full Tilt but unfortunately there would be no benefit to me unless I charged a fee. I am a proven player and my records can be viewed on the bottom of this page(livinitup) from sharkscope, additionally I have worked with two of my friends who have also enjoyed success (dafigs, bigslob100) and as you can see we all have the same ratio of success. I mostly play live now but have taken a great deal of note and poker theory that would help someone who is looking to improve. To hear more details email me at curtydagreat@yahoo

Also note this is not for high stakes players, this is for those who play in the $10 - 30 range

livinitup 461 $4 $22 22% $1,998 - FullTilt
bigslob100 905 $4 $19 18% $3,438 - FullTilt
dafigs 785 $4 $20 21% $3,227 - FullTilt

I do not want lessons of you, but just wondering what you would actually teach in these "lessons"?

If it is someone with a little experience that is struggling, everything, would not try to overburden but the basics...SB,BB, button play, position play, who is limping, raising, how to play mid pairs, low pairs, high pairs, reading the board and the bets, hands like AK, Aq, etc...it could go on and on as you know. Additionally the concept of a SNG is very important as well and how to approach the SNG effectively

ok then, for example im playing a 6 man sng, could you give me a brief explanation on how you would go about playing it?

**curtydagreat** · 02-16-2007

Alot of factors to discuss here, although I like looking at each game individually but generally play tight in the beginning and keep pots small and avoid races unless need be (even If I double up in the beginning off of a race and finish in the money 75 percent of the time after on such double up that puts me in the money on avg 37.5 percent, not bad but I could do better). The goal of course is to have all the chips at the end. You do have to consider taking the blinds when the oppurtunity is there though (position and not getting any hands) even in the begining for the simple fact the blinds will be coming to you more often than a 9 player, and this hold true especially at a tight table, but as Phil Gordon and many other poker pro's have said, you need to have patience to be good or great at poker. Go to war with great pots is what I have been doing for a long time, inducing bluffs and how to keep pots small with good and medicore hands although at times it is neccessary of course to go to war with good hands.

I am by no means claiming I am the greatest poker player or even a great, but I have 20 consective months where I have not lost and alot of experience in SNG action

Curty, try to whore your services when your sample size is bigger.

At least he was honest in his first post "I am looking for people to add to my referalls through Full Tilt Poker"... still pretty lame though

he messaged me asking for me to pay upfront + % of win, a serious rip off if you ask me.
