Now that it's in the graveyard of PG&C, it's not going to get nearly the amount of "general" traffic.

id say now is the worst time in history of online poker to switch to cash games(learning curve +extremely dead games), especially since your a winning mtt player and could be doing that instead. (mtts are not nearly as dryed up as cash games)

All depends on hourly, I guess. My ROI in MTTs blows cash out of the water, but then again, I can't 20 table MTTs, so I make more playing cash.

Maybe play mainly MTT's and when you don't have enough tournaments going on play some cash on side? Will take longer to see if you are winner on cash but this way you will be playing where you know you are good.

What kind of bonuses would one get playing around 1.7 million hands of 1/2 NLHE 6max based a standard TAG style of play?

Around 800kvpp. If you are planning on doing this, I would strongly suggest getting SNE. It would be about 400k more hands at most, but the $20k bonus plus the next year of having SNE would be worth it, imo.

when i play really sick volume i don't check for weeks sometimes...

Tim you really go weeks without looking at anything? Like no HEM or when u buyin to tables etc to see how you are doing? Even if you aren't worried about it because of money it seems odd to me you wouldnt every once in a while be like, "Hmm wonder if I won that session or not"

Sweeeet... If you want you can buyout of that $100 bet for $99 45k for me. Still only at 100nl? That's a hell of a grind.


Unfortunately I proved my last post right today. Yesterday was one of my best days ever and I felt good but slightly annoyed because I went on a $240 downswing before closing out.

Then today is probably my worst start to a day ever, I'm down $1,993 at worst point only about 5 hours into my day. Then I go on a nice run and finish the day up only down $400 or so. And I gotta be honest, I can't get this **** eatin grin off my face. I was SURE I was going to lose my whole profit from yesterday back in 1 day, seems to be the way it always goes after a killer day.

1 day of not looking at the cashier and im sold. it felt so much less stressful than usual, i cant believe i never tried this before. ty all for discussing it or i probably never would have.

[urDONEson79]

Yeah not looking at the cashier helped me a ton too. As long as the sign doesnt pop up saying i have insufficient funda. Lol
