So I need 145 more VPPs, meaning 18 games or so tomorrow at 33s. I played 16 33s today and went 11-5.
So far I've ran pretty well at 33s, going 21-9. A 70% winrate at these is almost certainly not sustainable for me, so I should expect some variance to kick in sometime. If I am a 60% winner or higher at this level though, I should not experience too bad of variance.
I think that's all for now, I imported my last 45 matches into PT. I did well at the 22s as well, I went 45-26 over my 71 games at that level for a 63% winrate. I didn't feel I ran insanely well there, so maybe just a little above average and I am something like a 61% winner at 22s and a 60% winner at 33s. That would be nice.
My plan is to get silver star tomorrow, if I run insanely well early, like win my first 5 of 6 or something, I may game select a few 55s and play that by ear. My overall plan is to keep playing 33s until I've played at least 100. If my bankroll is at least 30 buyins for 55s by then I will probably start taking controlled shots at 55s, game selecting, etc.
I've noticed at the 33s if I sit first, I play very profitable people often. This annoys me because tonight I played games that last on an average of something like 20 minutes. Because I've been playing fairly TAG at the 22s and 33s, if I do not get into a good situation with the cards early or my opponent does not have a hand in his calling/raising range, these things last awhile. I am not giving them an inch for the most part, making a lot less mediocre/high variance calls that are tough to determine where you are at. A lot of players at these levels are also checking down and overbetting rivers. I think this is strength a lot of times and have done a great job avoiding it. I feel I am really not allowing my opponents too much profit with their strong hands.
Anyways, silverstar tomorrow, 50% extra vpps and some OK freerolls/sats!
Also, I am thinking of making it a goal to get Goldstar in the month of June. If I feel I have some kind of shot in May I will go for it, but I'll wait to see how I am running at these higher limits over a larger sample size before I know for sure if this is possible in May.
Bankroll $1,333.78

yeah sometimes it is tough but you have to stay patient with the semi-fishies.
You will easily make Gold Star at the rate that you are playing right now. I only played 30's the last week of this month and I made it with 2 days to spare. I probably played close to 500 sngs in April though.
I hope so. 9 more to go today.
