Official 2011 Supernova Elite pursuit thread, with related chat - Page 224 - Internet Poker

Hey guys, i might want to go for elite next year and supernova this year because FTP is bull**** as we have seen recently.

How do i get stars to up my limit from 600$ a day and 2k$ a week? I have played a few hands before and i explained to them that i was a professional trying to move from FTP. They still told me to send 600$ per day untill i hit my 2k weekly limit or they can't do anything because i might be a degenerate gambler. That sounds way more stupid than anything FTP support has ever told me.

How can a grinder play with 600$ seriously?

Send me a PM with your username and I'll see what I can do.

Yeah, just thought it pretty funny that exact bit of info was the only omission from the earlier statement about presidential eligibility, and obviously I immediately noticed.

Brag - knowing that exact piece of info was worth low six figures to me ten years ago. I offer it to you for free.

Beat--I am a political science major and I forgot about that.

better question can we split up those 14 years? (moving around to play online poker then come back later and become president when turn 35)

This is actually fairly stupid. Now that people who go to WSOP from start can't play on Stars, there aren't that many chances to qualify to main online. I have no idea why super satellites are only few weeks before the main. You should consider that it is more expensive to book hotels and fly to US if you book flights only week before flying. I know I'd play WSOP sats if they started today.

i emailed 4 times and i was told that no one could get their limit upped before they hit their monthly limits which takes 5 days to hit.

probably this is not the best place to post this, but I figured the Supernova Elite community is one of the most helpful so here goes.

I'm a SNE having attained it last year, and I'm a cash grinder having played NL 6-max, full ring and CAP. As I have a WSOP Main Event package and also the WCOOP Main Event ticket, I'm looking to start learning MTTs and adjusting to live play.

The only live tournaments I've played are a couple of small rebuys in Macau a few years back, which don't really count. Can anyone provide me with some direction, which books or video series to watch, or what type of online tourneys I should get started with?

thanks in advance

+1, would be nice to hear some sort of update regardless of the lack of info. Don't get me wrong, Stars is doing great already allowing cashouts, that's ridiculously wp on their part. But I got lots o FPPs.
