Default Re: i quit...for now.

Don't quite just because you're down a couple hundred. You need a better reason than that. (Assuming your bankroll is still above 250BB for your limit)

I've been playing at Full Tilt the last month or so. The players there are generally tougher than at most sites. I see way more turn raises and check/raises and much less just calling down and donk bets than any other site. An average table would have just 2 guys who are 30%+ VPIP and there are very few maniacs. Table position is critical there because you need to get on the left of the bad players. Also, it's hard to switch tables to a better one because they only have 3-5 2/4 tables going at any one time. If the waiting list is short, I leave the table and try to get back on in better relative position to the weak players.

If you can turn a small profit playing you're doing ok at FT. Throw in bonus and the unmentionable and you'll be making just as much as you would at Party without either of those.

My suggestion would be to take a short break to relieve the stress of the downswing and play at one of the weaker sites like the Action Poker Network or iPoker Network for a while.
