Re: Absolute Regulars Thread
I can't believe how many of you play on AP. I'm assuming if I've been unable to get rakeback there, it's not worth playing there, correct?

Games are not bad IMO. Not worse than FT or Stars. Just fewer tables. Their new cash for VIP points is pretty sweet. They made a huge upgrade and for elite members in particular its worth a lot!

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I get rakeback at every site I play at as well: FTP, WSEX, UB, and PokerStars (I consider the FPP $ bonuses rakeback). I don't play at Absolute, because I don't have an account with RB. I was just curious if I was missing out on some juicy action at Absolute since it seems everyone is a regular there.

Re: Absolute Regulars Thread
Not sure everyone is a regular, just another site they play on when the games are good. I would not play on ABS w/o rb.
The rb/bonus used to better than it is now before it went to contributed method and 75 pts per $10. There are only a few big sites available to US players so you know Abs will have some 2+2ers on it. I don't think your missing out on something major. Some people like to have a better wr and prefer Stars and FT, while Abs you make more on pts,rb,bonus.

Re: Absolute Regulars Thread
It's true there are a lot of 2+2 regulars on AP, but there are also a lot of really bad regulars too. It's pretty easy to find a good game there. But no, I would not play there w/o RB.
EDIT: Also, it is tough to keep up a high WR at AP 5/10 and below, but the bonus/rb/arp system makes up for it. I don't really care what my BB/100 is, only my overall take home at the end of the day/month/year.

I know I am tighter than the 30-20-2.5 lagtags that abound, but that style doesn't work for me. over 100K hands at 3-6 and up at AP, I'm in the black, and I'm running at 24/17/2.00 I think some of the difference can be attributed to game selection. Think about this, some 30-20 run of the mill lag tag is on the button with K4o. He is sitting in a horrible game. For example, I opened up this game in the last few days. seat 1: bellbam 2: unconscious 3. syous 4. some mid fish 40-14 like 5. mills 6. whoop Now, in this game, if you have K5o in the button, chances are it might get folded to you, then you raise. In the games I play in, it doesn't get folded to me on the button. two mega fish limp in, and i fold K5o. So without game selection, I'd probably be like 26/18-19 regardless, i know my weaknesses in the AP game, but honestly, with rb/bonuses/poker, I haven't had a losing month all year, so it works for me. For the regular thread, I forgot Unconsc1ous, and I definitely remember PP [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Absolute Regulars Thread
Besides preflop in hand 2 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Both these hands were expertly played every street IMO. Hand one looks like Kobe Bryant taking on one of those Mcdonald's kindergarten kids in that commercial that came out like 4/5 years ago.
