I'll give 24h a try, will deposit some there and play HU and SH PLO prolly from 50 to 200 whatever table I find interesting..

At least there I have 30% fixed rb immediately whereas pokerstars introduced 30% capped max rakeback for 2016 (i think i need to make it to supernova to achieve this 30%) meh..

Yeah, I wouldn't play on stars, operation rake trap

Do you play cs?

CS93, it depends on what the new mobile poker variant 'with elements of social interaction and engagement' will be... Fran is quite social so he might like and crush it; I'm afraid I'm too asocial to look forward to it (which means that my expected profit will fall by 30%+ because I'll have to stick to jackpots SnGs, which will get tougher).

I hate it so much that Stars are a market leader by such a big gap; the fact that they're going to essentially expel me and, what's worse, a ton of other button-clickers has too big an impact on the overall poker economy.

I used to play fulltime but not anymore, I still played enough to keep supernova until this year, so I got ****ed pretty hard by the fpp devaluation

Play 235 FPP Sunday Storm satellites en masse (they take about 3.50 minutes on average per table to finish)... then don't forget to press Ctrl+R, unregister from all that **** and sell T$ on poker forums.

Yeh i used to play tons of 235s

Im not sure I unerstood this part about social engagement tony, but I can feel you laughing

You don't to have a 'positive ROI' there now... even if you get only 90% of the average tourney equity from the grind, it still gives a better rate than $0.012 per FPP.

My worst fear is that it might be similar to 888's webcam tables and that Stars might ban me from the game for giving out depressive vibes.

Don't worry, you'll only have to show your face then.

Im tired of all these points labels levels coins stars etc, thats why i want to play on a site with a fixed rb for a while now, im not playing full time either way

Whats your poison, what do u play

Stars' RB will be as close to fixed next year as it has ever been. Sliverstars will get like 20% + freerolls, Supernovas - 28-30%... that's not a big difference.

What I'm more afraid about is 'The New Dawn' coming to PKR, it might be the dusk for my sweet girl avatar there (especially because she can't really crush jackpots on that laggy software).

I used to play zoom 100nl fr back when it used to run in 2012-2013, I went back to university after that, cos I realised my earning potential at poker was capped and the days of poker millionaires were long gone

Well, the reason I was sucked into poker was that it promised easy money, not necessarily big money (I hope you feel the difference)... in fact, it still does.

The heroine of the first episode of metza's donkumentary pretty much sums my attitude up:

you master of science now?

Im the weirdest one, i play poker for a challenge, no fun in pure making money for me

3rd year computer science student now, so almost there

I guess it started as a challenge for me as well, I mean I've been playing poker on my moms account since I was 15, and when I went to uni for the first time I was playing a lot online, I made a lot for a student at that time and got carried away, plus I didn't do well in my first year(in my defence, it was math at Cambridge) so I dropped out and played fulltime for a year and applied for uni again(in case I don't make it) a year later I realised that The industry was in decline and games for harder by the month, so I went to uni again(luckly my grades were good enough to get into a prestigious uni again(and they didn't mind the year of poker at the interview)not as prestigious as Cambridge, but I couldn't say no) but this time I'm a lot more dedicated to studying, I still play poker cos I love the game, and I try to play 1.5hours a day to keep my sn, until I couldn't do so during exams this year, so yeah I see poker as a challenge too

Tldr;

Which is why I like rakeback, its easier to set up a goal for a challenge in rb... Im quitting stars bcs Icant dream of SNE anymore

gl CS

I might go back to chase that black thing on ps

I love this song

Thx friend, gl to u too!

interesting cs, seems that you have a similar mindset to me, just I didnt graduate in computer science
I am investing in similar industry these days though..
