Default Now what? (LC)

Through I'm sure what can only be called stellar play and being variances beotch this month I've managed to turn my 330BB for .5/1 on party into a 30/BB bank roll. 11k hands at -2.7BB/100 sucks.

Anyway, I think 30 bucks is the min withdraw from Party and I'm not sure what to do next. I don't have any spare cash to re-deposit and Party doesn't have micros. I have the remenants of a deposit I made on Stars for a KOTKP tourney a while back and could move it over there and start over at the lower limits that I'm rolled for and see if I can stand grinding out for nickles and dimes (no offense if that is where you are playing). Or I could single table and try and get it back on Party. Either way I'm taking a while off to read some more and get over this craptacular month.

Any suggestions?

Wook, if this is too low content shut er down.

kerowo, that sucks. Sounds like you need to drop down and rebuild.

if you wanted to grind back up you could try UB 5c/10c tables. I know Ive been seen spruking UB 5c/10c tables before but when I played there the 5c/10c tables would clear UB bonuses at 7-8BB/100 so really you cant lose. Those tables are how I built a $70 BR into a 25c/50c BR

If $300 isn't much to you, then redeposit & play. If you are truly grinding, then drop down and tough it out.

Good luck.

Uh, find the brakes sooner next time?

So, I just double-checked myself, because I've had so much trouble with being wrong this past week, but I was right. Yer effed. Min withdrawl for any forms of transfer from Party is $50, a couple are higher than that. That means your options are 1) leave the money sitting there until you can put some more on top of it to get back up to 300BB; b) find $20 somewhere, deposit that somehow, and then withdraw the whole thing and move to 'Stars; or, iii) find some way to grind that money into a big enough pile to withdraw and move to 'Stars.

Options 1 is pretty self-explanatory.

Option b, it should be noted, will require you to play some hands (Party gets pissy if they look and see that you've deposited and are trying to withdraw without playing). I've found that 100 hands does the trick, usually, but that means it's going to cost you, minimum, 10 orbits worth of blinds to get the money back out; adjust your deposit accordingly.

If you go with Option iii), might I suggest $5 + $1 NL SNGs? Good ROI, and your normal FR TAG game is very effective in the early rounds. You'll need to let it out a bit once the table gets down to 5 seats or so, but by then you should have figured out who you can pick on. If you don't like NL or SNGs, then I have two words for you: 15BB Challenge.

oooh maybe another option.

can you do player transfers on party?
You could xfer to someone on party & have them xfer to you on Stars.

But I don't think you can do player xfers.

That's a good idea, and in fact you can on both sites. I did it for a fella from another forum about a month back.

the obvious answer is, $30, one hand, party BJ.

if you win, cashout and play a paradise 10/20 cent.

I think the $5+$1 SnGs are a great possibility, but you could also nut peddle the NL25 game for a bit. It is usually pretty nice.

Of course, Miles always has the best answer!

I think stars and grinding is going to be the best option. Yea, breaks would be good. I kept thinking I wanted guys drawing to 5 outs or so and I could get them next time... There has to be a stop loss amount between 12 and 40 bb that isn't weak, I just haven't found it this month.
