Playing For BadBeat (Month 1)
Playing For BadBeat
I promised my followers that I’d write a blog about playing for BadBeat so here it is. First off, let me tell you they have a great team and I felt very welcome from the start. After setting up the following:
-
Pokernet Player (BadBeat’s Tracking Program
)
-
Skype
-
Teamviewer
-
Ladbrokes
-
Mansion
-
Hold ‘Em Manager
I was able to start. Note that Skype and Teamviewer are used for mentoring sessions, mine is named DAZ. Very nice bloke who comments me on my play when playing as Teamviewer enables him to see my holecards. Requirements per month include playing 400 tournaments (SNG’s & MTT’s combined), having 1 hour a week session and playing tournaments up to a max of 5 % of your bankroll. I started playing MTT’s on Ladbrokes and SNG’s on Mansion.
The level of play on these sites is far worse than let’s say Full Tilt or Pokerstars. Players aren’t familiar with 3-betting for most part and some are just give their money away calling all-ins with A3 or 25. The structure of MTT’s are a lot better on Ladbrokes, deeper stacked and longer blind levels. That’s the reason I avoid playing MTT’s on Mansion for most part. Mansion on the other hand offers a lot of SNG’s.
I’m playing the Jackpot SNG’s (1 or 2 tables SNG’s). Basically you need to win several in a row to win a huge jackpot. This is very difficult, but fun trying nonetheless!
I had a decent first month, netting some good scores. Especially on the Ladbrokes (= Microgaming Network) I had good runs in the MTT’s winning two and getting 2
nd
place. I’m trying to put in a lot of volume on Ladbrokes so I can compete with other players for the weekly and monthly leaderboard. A portion of the rake on tournaments is put in a prizepool, giving rewards for high finishers on the leaderboard. I’ll also play some qualifiers next month for the Easter Festival (sort of like Mini FTOPS).
If you’re interested in railing look me for on both sites as ‘CPoort1’. Take a look on my BadBeat profile
