Full Tilt Cash Tables

Playing FT cash 05/10nl 10 players on 2 tables.

My buy in was $10 on each table.

Played 501 hands, and made just over $8

This seemed to be little for the length of time, and amount of hands...

Question - is this a good session (winning one yes, so good in that way)  or is this grinding beyond grinding!

table amount went from around $4 upto $13 on 2 table, and the other didn"t really fluc beyond $8-14

i mean it is a 40% increase for the session. and if i reapted this for the rest of the week, weekly total would be $150.58 profit

Don"t worry about other peoples opinions, if you are happy with the result then that"s all that matters.  ;D

i played a few sessions recently in janruary on fulltilt totaling 6.3k hands at 10-25c......was a real swingy few days and i broke exactly evan.

i was up a few hundred, then back down then up and back down....but paid $115 in rake. pretty annoying, i just never put a consistent run together untill the start of Feb. as long as you get your money in good often and play well, the variance will find you the middle ground and sort it-self out.

Something to consider is increasing the number of tables. At this limit in particular, you only really need to play ABC poker - the meta game just doesn"t exist here - and can therefore bump up the tables to 4, 6 or even 8+. OK your ROI might slip from the 40% you just achieved.... but 25% across 8 buy-ins is more than 40% across two buy-ins, and therefore a significantly higher earnings per hour. 

There"s a really good article on this in the current PokerPlayer, and although it was written specific to STTs, the mechanics also apply to low limit cash.

simple logic being volume of table, meaning more cash....good point, but I would lose the ability (wot little I have) in seeing patterns, and players who are that little bit worse than me....so not sure I"d be any good at multi-ing more than the 2 i do.

I"ll re-read the STT strag - ty.  always good to learn from better players, so cheers for comments...
