4 days, I suppose you could email the VIP support of whatever skin you are on and ask them to hurry it up but I would just wait.

I didn't realize SSFR players beat the rake and need to withdraw

They don't. They get transfers

if you wanna beat ssfr then you gotta hit bbjs. the best regs i know win at 0.00ptbb/100 but they have super nasty 6.42ptBBJ/100 winrates

On top of 2 months straight of breaking-****ing-even, I find a picture on my desk today of a cute girl I met on a poker show back in 06' that I had been friends with since then, talked to her last week, go to see what she's up to on FB today, and she defriended me. I hadn't even hit on her for like, 2 years.

I gave him a cardrunners shoutout? does that help?

but who is him

Because he has AA.

well why would she stay friends with you if you don't even hit on her?

Because I'm levelling her?

Temporary fix for MergeKeys:

Please let me know if there are any issues with this version.

I wonder how many memberships ended when FT went down

At least mine, because I was using my FTP points to buy 3 or 6 months membership.

the training sites really went to **** after BF.

Bought my first stock today, I finally feel like a real grown-up for the first time in my life. A person who is wise with his money, owns a piece of a solid company, a sophisticated aristocrat gentleman who can say, to another rich sophisticated gentlemen, while sipping some Johnny Walker Green: "Yes sir, I'm a share holder, I have a portfolio, mostly comprised of large-cap stocks".

Feels good bro.

Now it's time to play some video games and drink cheap beer and get high.

I'm looking to sell around 8k carbon manies at 90%... if anyone is interested. Obv selling pieces of it if necessary and only reputatable bros who I have heard of please.

how are you planning on receiving money? like paypal or something?

Isn't it trading mostly at 70% now? Good luck.....

oh is it rly? well that wont fly.

and ya, paypal would be preferred.

This isn't working for me. It downloaded/installed, but it just tells me i need to update to 1.61

im still buyin at 80c, pm if interested

If it's trading at 80% or whatever what's the point in playing if you are planning on trading it? After rake, taxes, and losing an additional 20% just to get your money out with the further risk of losing everything on the site it would seem hardly anyone is making a profit.

yep, merge impossible to profit, regs should stay away.

If you get it on at a vig too it's the same and you just have to play higher. Also each of those are taken off one at a time not combined and everyone in life pays taxes. So it's just a question of whether it's worth making 20% of what you would have otherwise made. A lot of people here who probably couldn't get a job much above minimum wage in real life were making 100-300k/year post rake/rakeback but pre-tax. I think 80-240k/yr is still well above the alternative. Add onto that the fact that it can just be a side hobby/job and it's actually pretty easy to see why people would play there if they thought there was a low risk of the money being seized.

Yea I mean I get why people keep playing but it seems there are better options. Playing live for instance, even though it's much less hands/hour a winning reg at .5/1 online should be able to beat 5/10nl, so you are playing 10 times the stakes against worse opponents which should more than make up for the loss of volume. Also it's pretty nice to be paid in cash at the end of your session as opposed to waiting 6 weeks for a check.

I also really doubt many ss players were making anywhere close to 100-300k a year pre tax, unless they spiked the BBJ.

Edit: PTR has the top winner for the year at .5/1 over all sites at 38.5k....

Don't get me wrong, I still play on merge myself, but my volume has gone way done. Hopefully this super committee comes through and we will all be playing on harrahs.com soon.
