Do you have Moneygram there? I think it's a flat fee of $10 on any deposit.

Yeah, I'm sure we do but I'm gonna give my VISA a try. I've heard some Canadian credit cards are are usable. But I've gotta dump some money on it because the whole trip went on there and I prolly don't have a ton of room left. Fortunately there's plenty of time, unlike say, FTP's last deposit bonus...

Otherwise I'll prolly just bite the bullet and setup a Moneybookers account.

I had to use Moneygram once. It is a $9.50 charge, and you deposit anywhere between $25 and $2,500. You will have your money within an hour of completing the transaction.

Did you guys see Stars 10 billion hand promo yet? There is a $150 deposit bonus plus we get double FPP AND VPP over the next 12 days.

What this means to me is that I get an extra week off this year! Heck yeah!

So excited..needed to get Nova and needed to clear the 1500 bonus by senior trip time and now i will get 125(I didn't have all 600 on Paytru), plus I will prob clear this all within the next 12 days..awesome!

[TheProdigy]

Plluuuus I get out of school soon, and can double my daily hours, so I might as well try to get two 1500 bonuses :P

Didn't play any poker. Actually, the only bet I made in Vegas was on the Sens vs Devils game. I wound up stuck at the show throughout as an emotional security blanket because it wasn't going well. When I saw which way the wind was blowing I decided this would be, "The time I went to Vegas and didn't gamble".

Well, SOMETIMES marital brownie points >>> poker $$$. Glad the end of the trip was fun at least. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

hey everyone just thinking of the bot thing on full tilt. I have Chaser232 13/7 over 5k hands, and have seen him on since 12pm to 5am mulitple times, and the guy never reloads. He is currently at the nl100 lvl.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have him at 12.88/5.81 over 25k hands.

But if he's a bot, then so are MalPerdedor, Tixmaster, MinorChord, raisinchips, mowne, NaMoo9, the list goes on. All are ~14/7 (database filtered for players over 20k+ hands) [and for those wondering, MinorChord edged out NaMoo9 for $$$ won in my database despite ~2k less hands played!] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

EDIT: And I edge (emphasis added) you all out with 30k more hands. sad. i am NOT good. i am good NOT. i am good pause not. i am good.......................not!

Tixmaster is my buddy, but yea i don't believe there are any bots that i have noticed, just super duper nit miners, like me................................................ ...............................................

NOOOOOTTTT!!!!

Im gonna try to clear 2 of them as well. Already like 1/3 done with the first. Yay stars!

[Cry Me A River]

Yeah, I'm gonna try and log a ton of hands the next couple weeks to cash in on double points...

The last time Stars held a billion hand promo a lot of 2+2'ers got together to fill up micro tables and auto-fold every hand preflop (ie fold to the BB every hand regardless of cards) in order to try for the key hands.

This time the award varies according to the buy-in level. Would it be worth it for a bunch of us to get together and fill up a dozen high limit tables? Not that I have the bankroll to sit at a dozen $1K NL tables. But if you're Supernova sitting at a medium limit table ($200NL will do) it's $2200/$880 (Winner/everybody) for playing in each millionth hand. And of course the actual 10 billionth hand is a nice chunk of change.

I dunno, is that worth it to sit around clicking fold all day? $880 would be a very good day for me...

Don't you think they would frown on that...

They may look at it as chip dumping or other form of collusion and not pay you/suspend account
