January sucks so far at 25NL [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
But tourneys are bailing me out [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

[Corrupt Rose]

kabouter: It will turn around [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Thats what I am telling myself seing how everyone flops set against my overpair on dry boards. Of course all vs shortstacks so I have to call and I keep on losing those 15$ pots. Quite an effective way to cut down on my winrate. Gah. Running breakeven for about 4k hands now at nl25.

kazana: You could always try out a Crypto skin. I play there now and I find it enjoyable. The unmentionable and bonus gives me a nice extra profit. Took me only one day to clear the bonus at nl25 6max. The bonus was 100$ btw.

sputum: Atleast you are in the green [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] up almost 2 buyins over 4k hands isnt what I consider to "suck", but I know...

Good luck in the tournaments.

One hand. I never fold this right? I would estimate he does this with QQ too.

Don't worry, I think I'm gonna start taking shots at NL 25 next week. I'll donk off some chips to boost your winning rate.

Is it possible to get rakeback at Poker Stars?


EDIT: NM found out for myself. What about Party?

Does the rakeback at FT cover for that massive rake they take at 10 nl?

[/ QUOTE ]

How much do they take at NL10? I haven't played their yet.

[/ QUOTE ]
10% Which I find weird since like no other site does that

[/ QUOTE ]

Hard to make money when your getting raped...er raked that hard. UB does this also with their NL2 tables. I guess with rakeback your only paying 7.2% rake.

[kabouter]

Finally I made some money again:

But how would you rate my reraise here? Good or just plain dumb, the guy on the button is quite a good player, 21/11 or something.

Hero has Ks Kc (full house, kings full of twos).

This stuff is why my winrate is 4.24PTBB/100 over 14k hands. The problem is, I don't want to have to play 100k hands of 50NL before I get a decent winrate.

I'm 0 for 6 in shortstack-induced all-in situations this week. One time the shortie already had a straight when I moved in. The others where like this.
