I dont know if its because I'm grinding more than I usually do but these coolers are getting rediculous

My soul was crushed in my earler session today after some bad hands and just now in my second session I grinded well for 2 hours pretty card dead to lose a BI back flopping a set v runner flush just cant avoid these session destroying hands

Not getting as much VPP as I was hoping last 24 hours but I've got my mind on the next few days when I'm away so I'll have to commit to some serious grinding when I get back to get back on pace

EDIT after half hour or so more of grinding the **** wont stop: Its amazing how many sets ive flopped today that have gone down by straight/flushes seriously ****ing incredible i cant understand this ive never seen it before in my 18 months playing online it is absolutely amazing how many times ive flopped a ****ing set and people chase gutshots or something I really cant believe it I'm in shock and my stress levels are at never seen before heights

I am getting .15 vpp/hand pretty consistently so maybe you have just had some nitty tables or something.

My last seven sessions - about 6500 hands - have all been -EV. After being pretty firmly sure I was/am about a 2bb/100 winner at NL50, I am now down for the year. The only reason I'm showing profit at all is due to stellar rewards.

/sigh. It feels like such an epic climb to log sessions where I'm up six buyins in EV, but ending down that far is a snap.

I'm in despite starting a little late. Won't have a ton of time before february 8th. If I can keep myself away from FTPs super turbos I might stand a chance.

VPP count like 70

Ps. Can you add Super Turbo PLO HU SnG? Pretty please.

came back to Stars after spendign a few months on Ipoker, and my god the software, I've missed it.

Is Supernova possible at NL10/NL25 on the 20-50bb tables, Ive done calculations taht it would take me 80hours per month at NL10. which is easily doable, however FPPro seems to be off with the 0.116vpp per hand, I getting 0.09 at best :\

Could their 0.116 be for 100bb tables?

Hmm I used to paly 10NL on stars before moving and the 100bb tables were nit infested. (hence my original move (and rb%)) surely the 20-50bb generate more rake since its almost always all in or fold by the flop?

In my experience that doesn't have to be the case.

But I can definitely see the idea behind your thoughts. Some people at those tables are playing like you suggest. But often times I see people with 50-200bb. Of course many of them makes many random calls against short stacks.

I haven't calculated my VPP/hand but I think I'm getting them at a decent rate at 20-50bb tables, so you might be right.

Aye, to echo the other sentiments, this move pretty much makes no sense at all. Some clarification on how the double standard came to be would be nice. Logic dictates there's more SN than SNE, but apparently the SNE whines carry more weight?

Agreed. I don't understand why they moved it in the first place. Now having the SNE and SN in two different forums seems even more bizarre.

You don't say how many tables you play but I'm 12 tabling 20-50bb 10NL just now and its 7-8hrs per day to stay on pace. I'm finding VPP per hour is very changeable during the day (I live in the UK). For example over the last hour it was just 13!, but late night I get as high as 40 VPP ph. My take on this is that the US players are either looser than the Europeans or there are just more recreational US players. Whatever the case I try and play 8pm-2am GMT for max VPPs

Last year around late April and early May, I was pursuing double nova but after Stars changed their structure FROM 20bb - 100bb TO 20bb - 50bb, I left the site then @ 72k VPP's or so short of Nova and played at Full Tilt. This year under the current structure I am playing enough on Stars to cash in FPP's and then probably go back to Tilt. The only mitigating factor is I'm not sure how the new dealt rakeback method will affect me.

However, I'm posting here now because IF a structure change is made by February 1st, which is the latest a change would be made IF a change is made, AND if that change includes eliminating 50bb max tables or at least not having them be the default table fish go to like they don't on Full Tilt, I'll probably be able to get back in the fray in 2011 and go for SuperNova.

Ouch I was thinking it was going to be a few 5 hour sessions a week . Im from UK as well, and mygod at NL10 the players are so bad, made me wish I had played these tables last year instead of the 100bb+ ones.
