Best games for us fish to play to have a chance of winning in the long run?

[FredW]

Great post Dave, agree 100%.

Btw, even as a "pro" when I was trying to get to know a certain someone I would often play at DTD if I knew she was working, or go to Gala if I knew she was going there on her day off So it's not just recs who think like this!

creep alert

Haha, I spotted this as well. No means no Alex and when she says she's going home after Gala, you do not have the right to follow her

I'd agree with what Dave said before about recs having different motives for playing and aren't just looking for the softest games. That said if a friend of mine said they loved the thrill of cash games, but couldnt get to a casino to play live, but wanted the chance at winning decent money, i'd still strongly advise them against playing mid-high stakes cash online as although very short-term they could win a bit and have some fun, long term it wouldn't be sustainable to play in such games unless you had a lot of expendable $$. So either you want to find a soft fun game (like DTD stuff, or maybe playing on a small site - still not mid/high stakes cash) or find a form of the game which is very high variance, so at least you've got a shot at doing well and being able to sustain your hobby (like smallish stakes online MTTs, or live MTTs)

Grinders gotta grind

Going back to my original question, I still don't think there is a better option than playing the small DTD sats to bigger events. I reckon even pretty poor players would not be much -EV in the long run if they set themselves a small budget to try and qualify for all of these and grind from the bottom sats up. They are bound to hit a few scores eventually

Woodsey you can kill the thread by posting the Grimsby pic in here. Then all the fish will know which games to play to maximise their 'ev'!!!!!

Does make me smile how often in these type of threads you get recs/fish saying what they want from the game, followed by pro players saying no no that's not what recs think.
 
Erm...

To use a sports betting analogy isn't that a bit like saying you should only bet accas?

I think as a few people have said already small field, low-mid stakes online tourneys seem like the best bet.

Dtd says are literally the best way to bet an acca playing poker.  You always have the best of it. The numbers are stacked more in your favour than ever.  Accas can be value. Don't listen to tikay all the time.  Most of the time they are not but used to your advantage they are profitable tools to get on long term.

Ok, but specifically for people like me who are interested the best chance of a bigger score for min outlay and living 10 mins from DTD.

I suggest Grimsby for a big score with min outlay!!!

Failing that, suck it up, or change hobbies
