i had been grinding out the .01/.02 on stars getting ready to move up when i checked my ftp account and my rakeback hit my account, so now my br more than doubled. i had been crushing the .01/02, .02/.05 and the .05/.10 on stars and built it up to $150 then i got tilted/tired one night/early mourning and played $1-2 6max LO8 and lost it down to $37. very stupid i know, wont happen again. i built it back to $73 and now my rb hit on ftp.

Depends on how easily you can move money back and forth between the two sites, or redeposit when you go busto.

Go ahead and play .05/.10 if you want, though your roll is slightly on the low side. I'd say stick to .02/.05 until you have $200 total. Also remember that FTP's rake at .05/.10 is 10%, where Stars' is 5%.

[/ QUOTE ]well i think .05/.10 is the lowest game on tilt so what if i play that and .02/.05 on stars. it is realy easier for me to have it all on one site but i like the rb and also i like the tons of options on stars on tournies. i'd think of consolodating it to one site via the transfer thread but i dont know where to chose.

Why not play on stars, build up a bigger roll, then move some of it to FTP? So long as you learn quickly and play disciplined, you should have no problem making an extra $100 or so that you can then deposit onto FTP and be well rolled for the .05/.10 games.

Aside from that you could also try the cap games on FTP, or try playing SNG's/tournies on FTP.
