I need a wrist rest solution, PUK rest is too high, I'm using a razor mouse and oversized large pad, any ideas?

Sometimes when I have to much online, I just can't control myself but hopefully can contain this in the next year.


I could do the 16tbling plo100 and get sne pretty easily but I would probably end up getting really bored and want to move up. The tentative goal for next year is actually 2million vpp minimum and depending on how the year goes, potentially 2.5-3million. (The Victory Poker contest is in Feb so have to see what comes from that) This probably means I will end up playing a large percent of PLO so I really need to most likely stick to 200-400 and like you said take a step back from the shottaking. Even if I win nothing really good comes from it because eventually I will lose it back



But I do think you could do it if you really wanted to! Just depends on how hard you want to work
have you ever tried restricting your table limits?

I've been grinding FPPs playing Rush poker on FT to get the ironman yearend bonus, but I've pretty much shot my bankroll as a result and now I find I can't re-deposit any more (eChecks don't work any more).

Since I like Stars anyway, I'm wondering, is it possible to get enough points for any of the stellar VIP bonuses by 4-tabling 10NL for 2-3 hours a day on Stars? Or do I need to move up in stakes to be able to do that with that limited time available?

Yes and it worked rather amazing but I could only keep them on for a few months before I gave in!

if you play every day for 1 year 4 tables 3 hours per day you will get

300$ in stellar rewards
and around 38k in fpp
with the fpp you have 2 options either get 325$
or register at at some fpp satelite 6 max 280fpp to register
2 first get 11$ 3d gets his fpp back

dam, wants for GT 5 game. But it's better to take the 28k fpp, get the 300 dollar bonus for 25k, and use that 300 to buy the ps3 with a game off newegg or something and you'll be ahead 3k fpp.

Probably it is true. But I have never used sites like these and I have smaller risk and headache when I use Stars store.

I have been using newegg for years and they are #1. Don't know if they ship international and am sure the shipping would be high as hell.

yeah... could also do with some advice

honest advice is to always move up. once you get used to the level above your winrate will start to increase then when you have a decent winrate at that level you can move up again to get the sick hourly.

don't be fooled by the top regs who crush lower stakes, most of the time im sure there hourly will still be higher each level up they go. (im in this boat also although fpp/rakeback boosts my 100nl hourly more than 50nl winnings.)

also im pretty sure that when you move from 50nl to 100nl your game will start to improve as even the idiot regs (of which there are many) will pick up on weaknesses in your game forcing you to improve/re-evaluate your game (yes 4bet bluffing is common at 100nl, not so much at 50nl, betsizing is important too (the old natisfinest/greg tell) ).
