Nice post Caine.

My story of the night - log into Party and see a free bonus of $15 which they have put in my account, I can play with it but can't withdraw unless I clear the points requirements. Decide to donk around a bit, play a $2 tourney and bust out with AA (see above), don't like FR and so decide to play some 25NL 6max on party (with a roll of $40 yey BR management). Get stacked with AK (2pr -> FH - see above), and go on tilt a bit. Take a short break and sit down with the remainder of my party roll ($17) at another 6max 25NL table and find a 78/23 sitting opposite me. Stack a shortie for $7 with AJ giving me a full stack, then get it AI against the 78/23 with a flush and stack him, ship it-------> made an overall total of $6 playing 25NL, but here is the cruncher..... since I gambled the $15 party gave me and lost, but then made the money back again I don't have to clear the 200 party points to cash it out.... I guess this means that if ever you get given a cash bonus by party, play HU with your mate, loose the money and then win it back from him and you won't have to clear the points in order to cash it out.

Anyway - its nice to donk around a bit at 25NL, but its back to 10NL now - off to Paris on Friday for the weekend, so not much poker from now until Tuesday, but will be back next week to dig myself out of the crater I created over the past 2 weeks.

Thanks man.

Well, I didn't post this before, but when I lost those 8 BI's on Monday I was mega-tilting and there were no good 10NL games at UB, so I took the rest of my roll and moved up to 25NL. I was gonna' blow the rest of my roll and reload somewhere else. Right out of the gate I hit a huge suckout that that made me look like a complete maniac and then a good run of cards (my AA vs QQ, my set vs KK, etc.) and I was able to weak-tight (yay for 0.85 Turn AF) my way to 20PT BB/100...so while I dropped 8BI's at 10NL my roll is still where it was before. The money is not a huge issue for me (I have a really good job), but it was still funny that my delta is only like 1 BI now.

For the record, I am not counting the 25NL experience in my current Poker Tracker Database as it was all good variance imo.

I am back at 200NL .. and good thing is, that I don't need to cash out this month, last time ever I have to build up from 500$ again

Perhap I'll be less grumpy now (that is if I can find my calcium pills)

Hehe ... started off the session by getting two pairs of aces and a set cracked (boo hooo hooo, life is unfair, I'd better whine in the brew .... BASTARD!!!)

But ended up 230$ over the 670 hands the session lasted, which is a decent winrate ... life is good [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Is party still really that weak? I would have figured that after they embargoed US players the amount of fish/borderline retards would have dropped off considerably.

No it is 25NL ... it is not like the nosebleeds (party isn't particulary soft)

[Student Caine]

Any US players able to give me some insite into the best deposit method for Full Tilt? I have credit cards, bank accounts, etc. so I can use any method of transfer. Just wondering what is the least hassle.

I would like to start playing somewhere besides UB.
