How tough are the games on Stars compared to Party these days? I left Stars a while back after the rake changes but I'm considering going back.
I'll be voting aye. Know loads of people who voted no last time that have since changed their mind. Feeling positive about it.
Games are good on Stars at certain times but when they're more reggy they're pretty tough. I get asked a lot how easier/harder Party is, and best answer is they're different. Equal levels of toughness but for different reasons. Hope you're right about indy, I really do.

Haha yeah A4s hand is golden, will post it here. As for losing days, I have been a bit all over the place with updating recently, especially with such a stupid sleeping pattern. Will try update after every day from now on, but lately it's only been after big rostuckos etc that I update.

That'll do. Not much else to report. In September I dabbled with a bit of sports betting, turned my £1,000 starting roll into £2,200 within a few weeks with my own wee strategy and strict BRM. Had a tough poker downswing and withdrew it all to focus on poker, but decided to start it up again over past few days. Off to a dire start after deviating from my 5% rule and putting 10% on a Germany & Scotland double last night. Will update itt about the sports betting stuff should you all wish, but only if there's an interest in it!
i would keep them separate, because sports betting is such a hot button issue and generally ruins the blog. Sort of like anything related to lifting weights.
