I've just seen IDONKCALLU's scheduled graph. It's a grinder's wet dream!

Nice one.

    Its not quite as it seems.

    It seems to be mainly the frenzy sats that he plays. Sharkscope doesnt include the rebuys in these...

    hence the graph is ridiculously flattering

    cheers but my MTT graph is getting quite embarrasing its ridic!

    fwiw about 18 months ago I was basically busto and had to grind my way back on 20nl and the 5.50/11quid tournies on here.

    work hard and you'll get there I'm sure

    Ah. I feel violated now!

    Maybe including rebuys is an improvement Sharkscope needs to make.

    Very interesting indeed! I saw this graph with Emma and thought it looked mighty tasty but I didn't know SS didn't include rebuys. On the bright side, I never play rebuy tournies, so mine is as bad as it actually looks ;)

    Yeah, there are quite a few sharkscopes out there that have been manipulated (intentionally or unintentially) by the lack of rebuy tracking.

    Heres the scenario on the frenzy's.

    £1.65, each entry into a £33BH frenzy sat i think. Now if you can guarantee (yes I know, you can never really guarantee anything in poker) that you'd get a seat, then you could rebuy 20 times and be exactly even (£33 spent, £33 credited), the result of this on sharkscope? Oh hi there £31.35 profit.


    Not sure how many frenzy's run daily, but if you could get a seat in 3 out of 5 frenzys and spend a maximum of ~40 rebuys (could be higher/lower, variance is going to be big I imagine) then you make a profit of at least £33.

    Surely it's a sad sad person (and a foolish one) who would go out of their way to do that and lose money, just so their SS looks nice

    My graph dosnt look too bad on mtts but my stt is awful and cant understand why its so bad. I may just stop playing stt and stick with mtts as im more successfull. I dont know if its because ive entered a lot of satalites and havnt cashed on these or not that are included in the stt stats. Anyone else have this problem?

    So if you satalite for say 2.20 into a £200 mtt buy in and lose in the main do your stats show you lost £200 or £2.20 this has always confused me.

    Nah, they used to, but now the satellite will show £198 cash profit or wahtever so it all works out properly

    The sat will show on your skope as +198, the tourny itself will show as -200, so overall will be -2, which is correct.

    but if you make it that far and go out you lose and dont make any profit so it would be decieving. Surly it should only say you lost the 2 quid on your stats that would make more sense. Otherwise your stats could look like you have won thousands and really you havnt won anything just a lot of sats lol.
