wtf, I go away one week, just one week and when I come back, my preferred site, UB, where everything is rigged for me has badbeat tables all over the place and cant even find regular game anymore....wtf wtf wtf, I dont want to play that damned FTP and even worse [censored] like stars without rake....

[/ QUOTE ]

LOL Im tilting and I did not even logged one hand of poker, the only non BBJ tables are so tight, all the donks are on the BBJ tables, man that 0.5$ per pot is killing me. That huge for raise/c-bet type of play at 100NL.

Ok where should I go next. Im done with UB. Any1 know a software with RB and 100+ hands/table/hour. Damn I liked the fast action so much. Ill miss those tables.

What stakes do you play, and how many hands/month. TBH if you play enough to easily be platinum star on PokerStars then it would probably be worth it so long as you devote the entirety of your FPPs to buying bonuses and playing the satellites to the Sunday Million. If you wouldn't accrue VPPs fast enough then it would probably be a bad idea.

I play 100NL and around 25K/month with a 4tabling ratio. Bought a new screen and I will prolly 8-9 table star/ftp.

I think Im leaning on Stars and become supernova in 2008.

I think that Stars might be your best bet in this case. Four tabling 100NL you should easily make platinum which offers the $650 bonus for 50,000 FPPs, and that's if you can't win more playing the 5400 FPP satellites to the Sunday Million. These tournaments are easy money. The top four get one entry which you can unregister for and get $215 T$. Everyone plays really tight early on because they are just trying to outlast their opponents and this makes it really easy to pick up some small and medium pots to gain a little advantage in stack size. Then when the blinds get big or you get down to about six players, people start to go overboard playing push/fold preflop. If you've done a decent job getting some cushion in your stack earlier you pretty much just have to sit back and wait for them to knock each other out. I figure that if you can get enough FPPs for ten of these a month, winning 40% on average wouldn't be to hard. That's basically $860 in rakeback right there.
