About the Author
Marco Sandrini is a professional poker player focused on MTTs and PKO tournaments. He is a partner at Bagapool and a Twitch streamer. Throughout his career, he has developed a strong analytical perspective on tournament selection—a factor that, in practice, directly impacts the monthly results of any regular player.
This e-book is a collaboration with Lobbyze, a platform for managing online poker schedules and tournaments. The idea was simple: combine the practical knowledge of someone playing at a high level with the tool that puts it into action on a daily basis. The material is free—no trial, no hidden upsell. Download it, read it, and apply it.
For a long time, any player with a basic level of skill could achieve high ROIs without putting much thought into tournament selection. The fields were soft, information was scarce, and making money was relatively easy.
That era is over. With the evolution of software and the boom of study groups and teams, the average skill level of the field has increased significantly.
In this environment, every detail matters. And one of the most overlooked aspects—even today—is schedule building: which tournaments to play, when to register, and how to balance risk and return within your reality.
What does the e-book cover?
Six chapters. No fluff.
Volume × ABI × ROI — and how each variable affects the others. Adding more tables drops your ROI. Raising ABI without criteria leads to tougher fields. How to balance all three within your bankroll and volume reality.
Field size, speed, tournament type and buy-in range. How each choice affects the dispersion of your results — and when it makes sense to accept more variance in exchange for higher EV.
Max late register increases profit per hour and reduces variance, but lowers ROI and changes the game you need to play. In PKO it almost never makes sense. The logic behind it without romanticizing the strategy.
PKO has lower variance because part of the prize is accessible before ITM. This changes the logic of selection, registration and how you evaluate your performance in the data.
Filters by field size, ABI and format show where your numbers are statistically reliable — and where the sample still says nothing. How to read this without drawing premature conclusions.
Automatic filters that absorb site schedule changes, registration alerts calibrated by blinds. Moving away from Excel isn't just about organization — it's about not missing a registration by mistake.
