It was more an exercise than a serious attempt. it was fun!

would like to see whats going on in ricestuds head lol.
joined same time, he never wants to chop with me, whats def ok and then i just open a random game where he plays vs. pokinho18, a player i usually sit cause hes def one of the worse regs, and see ricestuds asking him to chop.
fml. i dont really care about it, its just weird lol.

it's gotten way worse than a year ago. i have to practically to go down to the 20s reg speeds if i want to get in more than 4 games an hour (and i'm multitabling).

wtf. I wanted to grind 50s for a living, is that impossible now?

There used to be plenty of action iirc, and that was last spring

i just started grinding the 50 sngs in november and putting in a heap of volume in last 2 weeks of november

i made what i did at my full time job working full time in a boring office...

so average atm for me is 550 a week, no tax, just enough for rent, food and going out occasional, which is fine by me until i build up roll when bills are paid

pm me for msn of you wanto talk

like today its 630am and im still grinding! sigh sigh

GL with it anyway

I wont be doing this for a while(next fall) and I will have unemployment and disability as well. plus the fact that 2200 is plenty of money for me

Action is ridiculously slow.

It wasn't that long ago that you could keep 4 tables running at the 200 level on full tilt, and still get sat by fish very frequently.

I don't think I've played a $200 in the past month or so that wasn't a reg sitting me, and it's hard to keep 4 tables going even sitting both $50s and $55s.

Also, it makes me cry to see 8+ people sitting in line at the 50s, with only 1-2 games actually running. Time to start sitting regs more often I guess.

Action was already declining before the addition of superturbos, but it seems like maybe the addition of the superturbo started nailing the coffin shut.

wow thats insane.

I guess multi tabling a HUSNG and an MTT is the way to go, or I could play cash, but god I hate cash games online

This is what I'm going to be doing. 2-4 MTT's with 2 $50's hopefully.

yeah we should not have adviced FTP how to change STs to make them profitable for regs ;-(

but now STs are more profitable as from 110s or so up ,.... but as i hate variance...i will rather move to hated PS isof STs on FTP

This regfish is doing good business against me. 8-0 and counting (Graph is from his perspective.)

I feel sorry for you.

How often you get rematched by these guys? You shouldn't really get your hopes up.

Hmm I got 0 chips in that FullTilt husng-leaderboard despite having played like 60 games - do I have to opt in or are just those numbers on their website completely wrong?

i have like 430 on ftp i want to get rid of onto stars

if any reputable poster wants to do a tfer pls PM me, ill send first and no vig ofc

thanks

lol thats really strange, pokinho18 is def one of the worst regs, and ive played you and you are much better than him. Maybe he just doesnt have enough volume with you, but still really strange he would chop w pokhino.

these guy rematch more than anyone

Fish were already playing the old STs, so I think pushing FTP to get rid of STs at the time would've been the only option (which I really doubt they would've done).

FTP traffic has been stagnant lately I think. Some of it may be due to them cutting affiliate (people that refer players to them for rb, etc.) payments by more than half in most cases, so sites that refer players to them have much less incentive to do so.

But I think an overall lack of growth lately on FTP has been the major culprit. Also realize that regular speeds are now the 3rd most popular husng structure there, so jump into some turbos or super turbos if you can't stand the regular speed traffic, Stars regular speeds also take awhile to fill (the turbos on Stars are also more popular).

FTP also has deep stack games which probably take away some regular speed traffic as well.

anybody know krab42 aim/skype info? i wanna see if he wants to do a friendly rematch, but hes not sat at any tables yet and i really dont wanna wait too long.
or you can just give him mine AIM:sublimetate

yeah - reg speed is disaster - however also turbos get there slowly but surely. sometimes i wait 10-20mins for a 33$.
i guess also due to -france -italy players - especially france had quite a few to play me before.

best would be if FTP would buy PS :-)

Lol no. Competition lowers rake and improves bonusses. If one site has the monopoly, we will probably pay more.

he goes by the name of barewire over here

yes this would be probably a significant downside for the more action :-(

also the new HUSNG LBs are great on FTP - however again - STs have an edge, they get half of the points where as it should be about 1/4 to be fair compared to reg/turbos.

so i think i will never make it up itm in the LBs with my volume. but still nice to see LBs.
