So, I've decided: I need to get supernova before the month is over. That means playing about 5k hands a day (ok so technically I don't have to, I can get away with a bit less, but there'll probably be days - ie christmas - when I don't feel like playing, so 5k sounds good), which when 9 tabling translates to about 6 hours of poker a day.

Cleared 4k FPPs.

Playing NL100 until I get all my money from rednines onto stars (although I'm kinda rolled for 1/2 again on stars, despite cashing out 2k

).

How different is 1/2 on stars from .5/1 btw? I kinda need to 9 table at least to do this, and 9 tabling .5/1 on stars is pretty easy (it feels so relaxing compared to getting 3bet every hand when playing 1/2 on prima).

Just a little heads up, Pokerstars last year doubled earning of FPPs and VPPs from the 25th to 31st

Well, software = #1. Longed for some 9 tabling

I also need to eventually find another site (probably crypto in january), and stars is the best place to have money at in the meantime IMO since cashouts are pretty much instant, same with cashins.

Also, I wanted a Wii so I originally deposited a couple of thousand to grind up enough VPPs for goldstar, so I could use my FPPs on it. Then I ran great and realized how much I'd missed the stars software. Decided to reach supernova, whic would also be a nice way to finally start grinding again. Ever since I moved to Rednines I've produced all these really lackluster months, hardly ever breaking 30k hands, which in part can be explained by me 4 tabling, but also because it's just not as enjoyable to play due to the software.

If stars was tax-free I'd probably want to play here long term, but since it isn't, I guess InterPoker is where I'll have to go. Their software is basically a slightly worse version of stars anyway, and they have rakeback.
