Did anyone else notice in the AP email today, they have some program for paying 9% interest on your account balance, if you're Elite?

Special offer or for good? I'd be a sad panda if it was a one time offer becaus eI just started a new account and I'm only back up to 38K vip points

9%? for elite, that's pretty cool..not sure I like the one deposit for 20% bonus. They still better let me make my two b2b $500 Epass deposits for the full bonus.

[Zach6668]

No details. I emailed VIP right away, just waiting on their reply. I'll post the details when I get them.

[ZOMG_RIGGED!]

Hawt.

[Zach6668]

Beast, they'll still let you do the ePass thing, I'm sure of it.

All of their reloads have been "one deposit", but they always give you guys a break.

[ZOMG_RIGGED!]

I've never had a problem making two or three deposits for reload boni and I'm not wont even make elite month sometime this month depending how much of my poker I focus on to AP

Zach and Palomino..you two both play goot, but dont listen to me cuz I cant beat this friggin 3/6 game either. Only person I win monies from is Palomino. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Zach-
BKSSB on Absolute - play for side income so the bankroll part will probably change if I feel it's safe to keep a decent roll online (from US). I'm now on SYR as of a couple days ago. Yeah the benefits are nice but the old RB program was alot better for US players and now with contributed and them taking out bonus/etc it's about a 50% hit for me. Still good money if I can breakeven...

Nina- was this a blind battle? if not I'm not sure what I was thinking unless you were running bad at the time or I had some sort of other read on you. Obv don't usually make that type of play OOP.

Nina- Do you table/seat select well on Absolute? I think this may have something to due with my -300bb month as I have become lazy and usualy just find the higher average pot and sit. Actually do better when I decide to just play 2/4 and sit in just the good 3/6 games. Will probably go back to that for Sept. and just count on bonus/rb for a month.

I just avoid tables with like 5 well known tags, and leave tables that suck. I do my best to get position on lazarus06 and Tarcadrs but nothing extensive. Heres the 69 hand:

Absolute Poker
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $2/$4
3 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (3 players) Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
Button folds, SB calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, SB calls.

Flop: 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4SB, 2 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, SB calls.

Turn: 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3BB, 2 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">SB raises</font>, Hero calls.

River: A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (7BB, 2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks.

Results:
Final pot: 7BB
SB Shows 6s 9h
Hero Shows Kh 9c

Bluffing in limit is funny. I probably would have raised you on the flop instead of the turn if I decided to defend with that hand.

Also, remember when you didn't have table select at 2/4 (someone can FMP and probably replace that with 10/20.)
