i have this thing for pokerstars, sort of a heater/cooler high variance type of rng usually comes my way, so I try to stay away from it as much as I can. I've crushed ftp,ub prima evt at the microstakes before but never stars. I once had a very good run, dep 600 turned it into 1700 in a month playing aggressive br style(20bi) then just bust out at 1 400NL table when things turned to shit, since then, I never had a consistent br growth. Only last week I decided to make it a personal challenge to myself to finally beat this non-rakeback monstrosity. won 200 then lost the 100 at 25nl (4bi for 2 days). I withdrew then cursed lee jones to hell lol. I tried a diff approach this time and played fr instead of 6max. lost 5bi in one session playing 6max, then decided to nutpeddle fr with a 450usd br playing 12 tables. things are pretty good after a 4 days, won back my 150 then won another 100. Playing a ton of hands (4 to 5k) a day, just to prove to myself that i can beat this site no matter how tired or up I am, I'll just go with the variance here. and after 12k hands in 3 or 4 days, I've finally gotten over the "tilt" that has plagued me for so long. I just play properly and stick it in if I believe it's +ev, seldom bluff big pots, and steal small and medium ones every once in a while. My personal goal is to reach gold status by december, or maybe even platinum if possible, just so that I can reach supernova by june. thanks and goodluck to all.

im really tempted to go back to ub though, coz of the rb, but the eventual 70% rb at supernova status and since most players here play ps and consider it the most fair rng ( i dunno about that though lol) |

I've played FTP and PS. I've stayed with PS for the past 3 years and I can tell you the FPP's are unreal. The PS VIP reward program is the best, I don't care what rakeback you're getting. I hated my time with FTP in terms of software and ther store. Stick it out with PS and you'll be happy. |

gee thanks man. i really had a hard time making this decision. no more hud problems and tracker fuckups as with some other sites, rakeback is the only problem i see, but since the dollar is really screwed now and that microstakes rb is really not at all that huge in terms of currency conversion in my country, ill give it a shot. thanks again for the advice, anyone else second his opinion? |
