I got caught opening up a new account just for rakeback. Id won about 6K on the new account and they never mentioned anything about keeping my money. they just shipped it to RIVERH8SME, close my other account, and told me not to do it again

ppl who time are pretty LOL


I agree. I've been dissatisfied with people sittin me before when I thought I was friends with the person but timing down is so friggen amateur and weak. Only makes the person wanna keep sitting IMO

Re: ***HU SNG REGS THREAD***

Yeah i tried it, i made a second account. I got caught once i made a withdrawal.

They suspended my second account immediately. Then after 5 working days they transferred all the funds i had into my original account > and that was that.

i did this and they moved funds but they didnt transfer ftp points, guilty as charged :-p but then again i made a mistake of sending them an email on the wrong email account about the wrong account, i'm sure this was a red flag for them, it's what i deserve.

Re: ***HU SNG REGS THREAD***

Hypothetical Question

What ROI do you think one of the High stake Regs could achieve over say a 300 game sample at the lower stakes, like 20-50s?

Would it be something ordinary like 10-15%, or would it go through the roof, because of the extra-ordinary skill difference?

Hero (BB): t1830 M = 61

Pre Flop: (t30) Hero is BB with J T
BTN/SB raises to t60, Hero calls t40

Flop: (t120) A 7 3 (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN/SB bets t80, Hero raises to t210, BTN/SB calls t130

Turn: (t540) 5 (2 players)
Hero requests TIME, Hero bets t200, BTN/SB calls t200

River: (t940) 5 (2 players)
Hero bets t1360 all in, BTN/SB requests TIME, BTN/SB calls t700 all in

Final Pot: t2340
Hero shows J T (a pair of Fives)
BTN/SB shows Q 3 (two pair, Fives and Threes)
BTN/SB wins t2340


on one hand im like yo sick call.. but on the other im like wtf cause hes like yo we used to play a lot on my old account back at the 30s. hes a reg and an unknown isnt usually gonna call that but if we have history then wtf, thats bs. like im not gonna report him but in a way it kinda pisses me off. on a sidenote, wtf, who admits to having a second account in public chat.
In my experience these kinda of call downs can be hard to read of a hh after, because often when I make them they are very much based on timing and dynamic of the actual game. You only have to be of a sec or two on every barrel compared to other hands for this being a pretty easy call.

I went from the 100s and 200s down to $6.25s at the start of the year, I have a 12% ROI over 67 games and I have not killed myself.

12% ROI over 67 games at the $6.25s lol?

So it's just a case of moving up and getting out of there, rather than the win rate being excessive in comparison to the higher stakes..?
