Thanks everyone.

I want to give a few details of what happened over the last couple of days.

First, the sprint finish. Basically, in order to catch up to MouldyOnions at the very end, I had to play $60 hypers as well. This was pretty tough and I ended up 50 tabling. If you look at PS steve updates I was getting 6k vpp an hour. This is completely insane, if you cough you are done. (It cannot be compared to tabling hypers in the past because PS has changed the time to act and other rules so it is much faster than it used to be.) Also, I think I had a log file thing too, or something similar. I lagged out of 30 tables with 2k vpp to go. I was very flustered, lol.

In general, for high-count tabling there is extreme stress induced on the body, I think my practice with exercise before hand has helped me sleep and play more comfortably (and feel less anxiety) even though I am still getting used to it. I probably sweated an entire bucket through my hands over the last couple of days -- talcum powder, gloves, and many towels didn't help.

I am happy for this challenge and for MouldyOnions in particular because it allowed me to test myself at the hardest level and rise to the challenge. If you had asked me 2 days ago when I would get SN, I would never have guessed now. Also if no one was close to getting first SN, neither of us would have played as hard.

Facile ! 50 tables en continu sur des buy-in entre $60 et $714

Je pensais qu'il n'était pas possible de multitabler plus de 24 tables sur Pokerstars.
Ils doivent quand même louper un paquet de mains vu que c'est de l'hyper-turbo?? non??

Pourquoi ça ne serait pas possible ?

Je ne pense pas qu'ils loupent beaucoup de mains (même si ça doit arriver régulièrement), mais ils jouent un jeu de "robot" très très rapide et ne jouent pas bien au poker, du coup. Et puis en hyper, c'est très rapidement du push/fold, donc ça aide au multitabling.

C'est sûr qu'ils font bcp bcp d'argent à la fin de l'année, mais leurs compétences pokeristiques ne doivent pas augmenter énormément en pratiquant de la sorte.. En tout cas moins qu'un "thinking reg", ça c'est sûr. (Ceci c'est un avis personnel)
