so pissed at the rake situation, anyware else that offers more than 35%? Being from UK only reaosn i gambled playing on the US accepted site was becuase the rakeback was epic.

I know its not blackchips fault, but merge management suck ballz, I was getting used to my Kushy rakeback

but the main point of this post, anyware else offer better deals?, i dont mind if its shady i'll just be carefull

i meen 1 month i might stick on it till fulltilt opens...i wonder what they'll offer though

UK why don't you just win more money to make up for it?

well pkzzz I love the merge regs to much to bust them man- you know this, I gotta keep the games goin jeez. I'm such a nice guy

some of us would kill to be able to play on pokerstars right now, f u for coming here and complaining about merge

+1, go play on stars such a no brainer it's not even funny

maybe the pool is softer on merge. I mean... you guys are on it. heh

merge is so soft though, these europeans are so good compared!

All jokes aside though since fulltilts opening up in a month for me it makes no logical sence for me to jump ship to pokerstars for one month, the months prior of me playing on merge was just becuase 50% rakeback man!

Pokerstars may be reliable and have a larger player base, but its hard to turn away such a crazy good deal, I think on poekrstars as a bronze star u get 14% rakeback (probably way off) I think in the longrun playing on that site makes more sence but I always hated the software was always a fulltilt guy in that aspect, and merge has great software in fairness. But they've really pushed away some reg grinders with this recent move. I was thinking of staying on merge even if ft opened since the deal was so good, now i guess not.

I would think that with the volume of traffic on stars you could just table select wisely and still be more profitable.

just one of those special days today. First 1k hands <30% wwsf <45 w$sd, somehow managed to only be down 1 buyin in EV (3 buyins total) when I said f it after 2k hands

also the fish running like god vrs me HU (potting every street basically) cracked my top set tiltttttttttttttt

some days you're just supposed to lose

kinda what happens when all u do is nit around til u u flop top set! lol

^made me laugh. what's your sn pokerarb?

Anyone know why the 10NL FR games have been lame lately? Only 4 tables running right now.

Has everyone moved up to 25NL? 17 tables running at that level.

No one starts tables at 10nl. And they break really easily cause everyones terrified of playing short handed for a little.

what the **** is goin on at carbon 4nl and 10nl???? I run towards the fish, and all the tight regs run the other way??? table with HUGE whales cant hold, but u guys r at every other table playin against each other, just feedin the damn rake! makes no g*% damn sense! Ive heard of nitty, but give me a break!

theres only like 8-10 tables running, bro. most of the regs, including me, are just posted up at every single table for the entire day, so not sure what you're getting at there.

Start tables, play the fish hu/shorthanded, ez game

yea, problem is, when table get short these fish get up?
what I'm getting at is the table was full of regs, but once this 1 maniac starts doin his thing, all the regs jump ship! I understand he makes it a high variance game, but most of these regs are stuck already! Guess I'm the only 1 who loves the action a maniac gives??

what is your S/N sir?

Where is everyone on merge. Only 1 baja table going. No yellowstone. What up?

I've been saying it for a while, merge games are slowly dieing out, they didnt help with the screwin regs on rakeback also but its being going this way for a while, I used to play 16 games easily, but now if i'm lucky if i can get 5-6 now, pokerstars is calling me i think...

No clue why you wouldn't play on pokerstars anyways if you could, you do realize Ukprodigy at 25NL, just because you'll get technically a smaller rakeback percentage, Merge's ridiculous rake structure capped at $3 vs Stars at $2, that extra $1 in rake savings=100% Rakeback for that dollar. Since a 200bb pot will be raked at $2.50, you're saving .50 cents right there. Not mention the ridiculous amount of tables at stars....

yea to be honest when i first played on merge it was due to a stakign deal i had after blackfriday went to **** and 50% rakeback but, I've just been alittle to comfortable on merge i do actually think i would be alot more profitable on stars thank you for the post also wasnt aware of that rake structure, still kinda naive to all that jazz

You had to get staked to play 25NL?

el oh el.

lol no i was playing 50nl and dabbled at 100nl, when i split from staker i played 25nl for conservative bankroll management, i'll play 50nl if its gets real fishy but thats pretty rare these days most good games are at 25nl 50nl is either dead or reg infested but i have very stringent bankrolll requrements...also i just bought a new graphics card liek an idiot

but i'm rolled for 50 and coulda played 100nl if i didnt splurge on that card when i think about it, but, battlefield 3,walking dead,sleeping dogs.....yea it was worth it lol

although ft paying out soon....nearly rolled for 200nl, dick is hard
