screenname?

I recently started grinding away there. I've found the games to be fantastic and have put in about 12k hands there in the past couple weeks.

Sucks that they went to this crappy contributed rake MGR thing though.

Best,
Bill

Same. Not sure how I feel about it so far. It's just different that Stars: less peeling, more stupid donkbets, more random bluff river raises, everyone bluffs the river after turn checkthrus. Lots of nitty 20vpip tags & sane 40vpip lags, not a ton of the 30/20 variety. Overall not bad. I don't like the lack of tables, and the HH thing has got to be the most annoying thing in the world. I've never had RB before though so we'll see how that goes.

You're in luck then....The aforementioned "contributed" rb deal is making me spazz.

One -250BB in 2 years? That must have not all been short handed then. I've had multiple 300+ (both ways) in just over a year at short handed.

played .5/1 -2/4 my first year, now playing mostly 2/4-5/10 but yeah have only had two 200-250bb downswings. Really running bad though the past couple of weeks...IE losing a lot of big pots to runner runner and losing A high flushes and trips left and right...it happens but this has been the worst. I did showdown a lot with A high but probably vs the wrong opp as they always seemed to get a piece...my image probably suffered too and having Tags and Lags always c/r the turn is frustrating.
