It was 100 points last time they did jacks or better , no? or was that the spin n go promo? (maybe both)

Seems like it is not even worth it to play almost 1k hands for this when my main game isn't NL cash

Yes, could swear last time it had a different point set up - and this one seems like this one might be taking a bit longer?

Have been wondering myself if it's still worth it

Because stakes, points targets and prizes aren't shown on the website but in the challenges window, i assumed that these are again personalized based on play history.

With that said though, i have the same offer as Sam.

Yes last time it was different points setup - 100 point target but it was pairs 2, trips 6, full houses 14, etc. The minimum cash prize was €1/$1 i believe.

Sounds about right.

Correct, they are again personalised.

I have a much higher minimum stake buy-in than Sam for example (mine is in the 'dollars' and not 'cents' range). My minimum reward is also a lot higher, as are all my scaled rewards underneath the top $5k, which is the max for everyone no matter what stakes you play.

yeah i play HU PLO SNGs but it's nice to take a break and play Zoom holdem.

That said I'm well down playing and most I've won is a dollar. Usually 20 cent is what I win after losing a couple of $2 buyins.

Wanted to check how much rakeback this promo is worth, but I made a quad yesterday for the first time in ages, so that totally mucked my sample ...

Guess if it's going to take about ... 600 hands a day to complete the card (?), would that be about $2.50 in rake at 10nl? So ... is that maybe about 30% rakeback? (less than last year)

It's tough, because you never seen people posting winning graphs of 10nl for hundreds of thousands of hands any more - feel foolish asking this, but is it even possible to play 10nl profitably any more, as like a Chrome/Silver Star?

Could *very well* just be me who's struggling Am sure there must be people who are doing just fine - but maybe not nearly as many as there used to be (?)

May stop playing soon, will see how things go for the rest of the month ...

If you need help with your resume...i know a guy

5% of Chomp's posts have been directed at me - and what's especially stalkerish about your post percentage is how you seem to be looking for reasons to post about me. Like my last post points out that am a Chrome star, which would indicate that am a recreational player - and instead you make a post intended for a pro.

Also your posts about me don't have anything to do with the topic of the thread. The question of whether anybody's still able to turn a profit at 10nl is important because we know Amaya's been trying to make the games unwinnable by lowering edges even in the face if increasingly harder games with finer edges. And the reason they're able to do that is because of the high variance of cash games, with it being difficult for recreational players to gather meaningful sample sizes.


My graph in 2014 used to look like this:




My graph for 2016+ now looks like this - and having trouble beating the rake with the decreased size of the promo bonuses:



Guess there's *a chance* it could just be variance, but guess the potential reward is too small to be worth the risk? And also, really don't want to be that person that is participating in a system where the only one making money is Amaya

Will probably just stop playing at the end of the month, which is a bit sad. Have been playing hobby poker for 6 years now - but there's lots of other stuff that's just as fun ...

Have you tried other sites? If you can live without a hud Unibet is good, softer games, decent promotions etc. Stars field is definitely the toughest field (even at $10nl) and the promotions are barely worth doing now.

Thanks so much for the post Imp - guess have been lazy about checking out other sites ... to the point where had actually sort of forgotten there were alternatives

Guess would prefer to play fast-fold with a HUD - although was playing without one on Bodog (Bovada/Ignition) for a bit last year, and it went okay.

Everyone sounds so happy with Unibet! Since Stars doesn't seem to be working out for me any more, maybe it's time to give it a go. Will maybe try to play some freerolls go get used to the site, and see how things go?

Thanks Imp!

^ Considering your graph just off a 40% less in rake paid at 10NL you'd be up a few K. Not to mention the bonuses would actually net you some decent change. For the last week in this month you get 25euro just for seeing 125 flops in that week at 4nl.

Attacking, [not for the first time]] one of the nicest people on 2+2, speaks volumes about you. Please stop.

Thanks quarantined

If Pokerstars could add Telesina I would be a very happy spewtard

Is it just me or is the place to enter a bonus code gone from the deposit area?

I Just had a look and the box to enter the code has gone from my deposit area too. Having said that though, I currently don't have any deposit bonus code offers showing in my cashier (it's blank) so, that maybe the reason it's not currently showing as an option when making a deposit. Perhaps when a new deposit bonus code is showing as available, the box to use it will re-appear as part of the deposit options again.

If you don't fall into the same category as me above and you do happen to have a deposit bonus code showing in your cashier, then there should definitely be an option to use it when depositing. I would email support and raise the issue with them, if this is the case.

Thanks, my offers are blank too.

I'm constantly scratching my head at the stupidity of websites that have an "Enter Bonus Code" box on their deposit page when no deposit code is currently available. It's just certain to discourage some punters from reloading.

Ship it baby!

Won $5 on the jacks promo playing 2NL zoom - %1 shot

Nice one LOLNH!

That must have been a nice change from the usual

Congrats!!

Cheers Sam.
