wpx changes rakeback

[Kvacke]

well, I wasnt to satisfied today when I oppened up my wpxclient, realizing that the rb went down to 75%. I Have been playing there becouse of the full rb, but this is going to eat into the profit when u play a lot. If the games is not softning up as a result of this I think I will be off to try some new sites.
Whats do you guys think of the wpx rb change and how will that affect the games there?
Guess I will spend the time today looking good rb deals and good games on other sites instead of playing...

ive been so depressed about this all day, im definitely not playing there anymore since it decreases my profits monthly by more than 25% since Im a slight loser pre rb.

hopefully it will work out for the best since wsex was probably a second rate option for sites anyways profitability wise (or so ive been told forever but never listened).

its just such a pain in the ass to get money on sites tho and i just took half my roll off wsex today and wont see that money for a few weeks, so am stuck playing there for now and seeing how much less rake I accrue is annoying as [censored] since I see x dollars raked and know it would normally have been x dollars + 33%.

anyone wanna help me come up with a new poker plan? i guess i should ck out the internet forum and figure out what the deposit bonuses and rb deals are and PS vip program and what not. PM me if u think u have any good advice.

edit: to add how sad it is this was my 3000th post [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I still haven't decided what I'm going to do. I think this means that 5/10 and below is pretty much unplayable for me, unless I really change my style. While I think I could settle into a tighter style pretty seamlessly, I'm far more concerned with my results at 10/20+, and I think I may jeopardize that if I try and re-make myself for 5/10.

In terms of 10/20+ on WPEX, I think I'm actually going to have to use some table selection (particularly if I play 2-3/4 handed). I've been doing ok pre-rakeback, so I don't think this will be all that damning, but I need to stop playing in bad games. So, no more playing da_enigma HU to work on my HU game, etc.

Ultimately, I understand their reasons for dropping the rakeback. I can't reasonably expect a company to continue along a path that costs them money, but at the same time, I have to put my interests first. I really hope this leads to bigger and better things at WPEX, since even "just" 75% is still pretty damn nice. So, I guess it's now just wait and see. I might cash out most of what I still have on WPEX and try and re-build while learning NL, while shifting most of my LHE torture over to PS/FTP for the time being. I've been considering it anyway just to get more hands in. Who knows. I wish I could afford to leave enough on WPEX for 10/20+ while moving enough to PS/FTP for the same limits, but that'll stretch me a bit too thin.

Of course, this happens just as it looks like the year is finally turning in my favor. Bah humbug.
