I think I'm primarily going to use it when I need to get full tilt points fast because I don't have time/don't feel like playing

I like it because you're always playing hands but its more about self control than it is about using your brain or being creative

also, **** is so rigged

I once e-mailed support@fulltiltpoker.com for all my hand histories for a few months. Obv they didn't do that because they aren't stars, but they gave me the last 3000 or something.

I think you can access hand histories through the "My Promotions" button in cashier. Not sure how useful it is as ive never used it. But it may be worth checking out.

i duno if this has been asked elsewhere/easy to find but does anyone know how the rakeback works for rush? to me it makes sense if it would be the same but i remember some people saying it was less than they expected etc. for example how much $ could one expect for 1k hands of 200nl rush?

@ that 98s hand bvb, i think raising there is borderline bad, and def not standard. calling with position is much better.

It makes a copy of your original notes file first, then creates a new one (so none of your other notes would be available until you restore your original notes - and thus losing the Rush notes).

You could probably manually copy the contents of the new notes file into your original though. I don't think its a very useful solution, but I think it will get improved.

I don't disagree but can you expand? (especially since I make small flop raises like this with a variety of holdings, balancing that with a monster draw seems ok at face value...but I wasn't sure obviously which is why I posted!)

the only way raising is profitable is if he is 3betting that flop light, which i don't think he is, other than that you are often stacking off with pretty meh equity when you can just play a strong draw in position. If he has air here you are taking the pot down later and he can easily represent the cards that improve you.

Hey guys I was looking at the ironman details since I never really realized I could actually get things by doing Ironman and earning bonuses through medals, etc...anyways, I read this:

Quote:

If players continue to qualify for one of our four Iron Man Challenge levels over consecutive months, they will earn Medals at a faster rate.

My question is, how much faster? I didn't see this and Full Tilt takes days to get back to my emails.

EDIT: Nevermind, found it!

meh, i disagree, we can....

1. win the pot outright with our draw
2. get more monies in the pot when we hit our draw later
3. get 2 free cards

and assuming he's not ******ed, he will only pay off one of our disguised 6 outs when we hit....I think A7ss is like the worst hand we can be up against, even vs. TT we have 14 outs

also, saymond gets the credit, but you should be mostly raising when your perceived range matches your actual range and flatting when your perceived and actual ranges are different. it'd be better to flat this flop with AsQ or something....
