Assani's Poker Thread (1 Viewer)

Assani, I just looked up your Sit-N-Go numbers and saw that you had lost $29,833 in SnG's. I also noticed that you virtually stopped playing (at least under your main SN) in mid 2007. My question for you is, do you find SnG's to be nearly impossible to consistently be profitable? I've tried my hand at SNG's with very little success. What I am perplexed about is your ability to cash in these larger tourneys but an apparent inability to cash in SnG's in which I assume there is a smaller field? Or has your play just really come around since mid 2007, or are the numbers that I see complete rubbish? This is not at all an attack on you nor your play, you are obviously on top of the world at the moment, but I am attempting to get a better grip on this crazy game of poker and trying to figure out WTF happened here. Thanks and keep those Icy Pots coming!

LOL @ this profile...

Assani Poker Player Profile

"Although extremely proficient in both No Limit Hold Em, Pot Limit Omaha, and Pot Limit Omaha high low Eight or Better, Heads Up Limit Follow the Queens is the game in which Assani is truly considered 'world class.' Many will even go so far as to say that he is the most accomplished HULFTQ player in the world"

 
well done Assani!

quick question.. in the 109+r you were down to just about 90k in chips with blinds at 10/20k, you were essentially blinded down (there were 4 left). What are you looking for to push with at that stage? IIRC you pushed with J8 and hit a J to double up.

Just wondering if you were extremely card dead for a bunch of hands there or what.

Shark Scope. I was wondering this, too. I've noticed those kinds of numbers even after players have won big tournaments like the Sunday Million. Just a hunch, but I believe that if you pay for the service they may take lengths to shield your stats? Most successful poker players probably wouldn't want the IRS to have a record of hundreds of thousands in wins? Just a hunch.I'd rather have a record that said I lost $30,000 than I won $200,000.
Great player or not, you can ask them to block your stats. There are several players that have stats disabled. Also, I believe SharkScope only tracks games considered SNGs (which I believe means less than 45 players, at least that's how Stars seems to list them). I don't know this with certainty, and am at work so I can't check, but I recall something along those lines when I did some checking on their site.

On Full Tilt (and I assume P'stars), there is a difference between Sit & Go's and Tourneys. Assani has been playing tourney's, and not the sit n go's that Sharkscope is showing the $30k loss on. Of course, I could be wrong on all counts, looking forward to AF's response.

Right before my senior year of college in 2003, I turned 21 and started playing online. All I played were SnGs. I started on Paradise, then moved over to Party because you could play two tables at once there, which was a huge deal at the time. I ran insanely well to begin, and got better and better. Plus it helped that the competition was just horrnedous in those days. Eddie and I have often said that if we could go back in time to 2003 with our current poker skills that we'd both be millionaires easily....it was just sooooooo soft.I do think that nowadays the SnGs have gotten pretty tough. Nearly everyone who plays any level above the really low ones knows the proper push/fold ranges and calling ranges. Moreover the whole "play tight early and let them bust out, then use your tight image to steal late" that worked so well in 2003 is pretty much useless now as everyone understands that.With regards to my big losses on sharkscope, I'm afraid that was yet another one of my poor bankroll management decisions. I had some MTT successes once I got into them, and for some reason with only about $70K to my name I thought it'd be a bright idea to play in the $5000 buy in heads up SnGs. I remember playing The Takeover a bunch, and in those days he was really highly regarded(perhaps still is, I dunno). As you can see I lost...but to be honest a 5 or 6 buy in downswing in heads up tourneys is pretty much meaningless....its just the stakes were ridiculous. I was pretty stupid back then, but then again you have to realize that when a kid grows up in a single parent home(dad never paid child support) and his mom just does day care out of their house to pay the bills....and then all of a sudden I'm given $70K in a matter of months....its not easy to make good bankroll decisions. Its like those boxers who end up broke despite making millions. Its very easy to critisize, but the money really did seem like millions to me at the time and I thought it was invincible. Thankfully, I've learned my lessons(the hard way) and am back on my feet doing well now.

Yeah I was pretty card dead. I basically was going to push any decent hand when I had first in equity(another played hadn't raised before me), but I just didn't get the chance until that hand. I'll post the HHs later, and I'll comment more then

Sharkscope only tracks SnGs, not MTTs.

This is an awesome story to put in here.
 
Thought I got in tomorrow night at 6, turns out I don't get in till 7 or 730 :wall: I guess I'll be hauling ### to my hotel to catch the end of the Laker/Celtic game instead of drinking during the second half and enjoying it from the book.

That last hand was majorly sick. For those who missed it, flop was KQJ. Bet, reraise, reraise, push, I believe was the action. Assani had K8, shooter had KT. Turn brought the miracle 8, but Assani still had to dodge 17 outs on the river and did to win it. Was a blast watching both final tables. Congrats on the win!
Assani had the K of clubs, there were 3 clubs on the flop, and the 8 on the turn was also a club.Edit: flop was QJT.

No you're thinking of a different hand. I flopped top pair and check/raised pretty much all in. Spoofy is right except that 6 of the 17 outs I had to dodge were only to chop, so I only had to dodge 11 outs to lose.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. You were in control and had the whole continuation bet thing going one. Even if he thought you were bluffing, you bet pretty big preflop. You couldn't have been bluffing with garbage.
 
OPRed villian from that hand and hes the best kind of opponent: A guy who was a small stakes player and hit a big tourney score and is now jumping into the big tourneys....God thats great to see.

Btw, I mentioned to Eddie a while ago that I seem to run great at Stars and horrible at FT, and thats continued time and time again over the past few months. Just seems crazy to me. Sample size is pretty large too.
