so how do you calculate approx. # of VPPs earned by # of hands at a level? Gonna try to make a push for platinum but only if it's a reasonable # of hands

Lego, was going to use my VPP's to get the 1500 bonus, but you saying it's hugely overpriced is kind of changing my mind. There's nothing really from the store that I'd ever want though, and I'm not an MTT player, so is it pretty much the only way to go or is there some other option?

I figuired I'de finally get on the 2+2 bandwagon.
May has been my first month at stars so this may be a commonly asked question.
Is there anywhere I can check the top winners by week, month ect. I tried realpokerrankings.com but it's down.

My SN is TboneMunson any thoughts appreciated?? Pretty sure the word nit will come to mind.

See how many VPPs you have. Play for some time. See how many VPPs you now have. Do some math.

Generally for 100NL it's something like 0.3-0.4 VPP/h and at 200NL 0.4-0.5 VPP/h.

iirc it's based on table rake right? an 8/5 nit playing on the same table as a 67/22 fish get the same VPPs right. I think I have ~40 hours of play ahead of me as I can only 4 table 100NL aorn and need ~5300

his play isn't horrible there is it? he doesn't want to double barrel and get blown off his draw, so he check shoves, and any strong 1 pair you have here would be hard pressed to call that C/R. on that dry flop you have 3 possible strong hands, 66,99,J9.

table selection?

you are one of the best players I have ever played with and likely one of the best players in the world..why would I sit at the same table with you when there are a ton of NL 100 tables running with players that aren't world class?
