I joined a $7 step 1 Sng at Stars, just for the fun of it a few hours ago.
I am now on the last step (Step 6 - $2000 buyin) and I dont even know what to do with it. Montecarlo? Punta del Este?


nh, sir, and good luck.

Holy crap, I'm posting in teh Limit section only to tell you that Monte Carlo is the place to be!

Holla!

Basically, find a Step 6 where you will not find Johnny_Fish, shaundeeb or mig.com sitting and you'll be fine.

Wow, tough call with the Step 6 prize. Do you play for the best package or play the odds? Monte Carlo is a sweet $18K trip and buy-in but that Step 6 only pays out one package. Conversely, Punta del Esta pays out three packages and $500 for 4th but who the poop wants to go to Uruguay?

(Actually, I do, but I'm goofy and that's just not as funny as "who the poop wants to go to Uruguay".)

There's a $2,100 SCOOP NLHE tourney, which is the same price as a Step 6 ticket, so maybe they'll give you that option. Stars Support is really good like that.

I think i'd rather play the odds, wouldn't feel nice to blow it in the last step and have nothing to show for it.

Uruguay is also a good option for me. It's the birthday of my friend Pepa, and I promised her i'd try to make it (she lives in Buenos Aires), so it would be like killin 2 birds with one stone.

On the other hand, i've always wanted to play in one of those big stars COOP championships, i'm really interested in the LHE 6max and limit OH8 events. We'll see.

Subject: EU items not there?
To: Full Tilt Poker - Support <support@fulltiltpoker.com>, customerservice@fulltiltstore.com

Hello,

I had been saving my FTP points to get a new monitor.

It was still available for 115000 points a couple days ago (It was the 2nd Samsung on the list). I now have the points but see the monitor is no longer listed under EU items? Sad

Pleeeeeease tell me you still can get one? I only see the ultra-expensive 30" and a 19" one. Since I already have a 19" I have no use for another one of those, and I wouldnt want to wait for another 300k points to get a monitor. Man, this would suck big time...

I see there are less and less items available for Europe, is there a reason for this? should I expect this trend to continue?
I cant find anything useful in the store and there's nothing else to do with my points... Please help!

Kind regards,

Juan Martin

FTP points really do suck large. I suggest selling them in the 2+2 marketplace or something.

BTW, stars support would not exchange my steps 6 ticket for any tourney entry. I had to play it.

long time no update

celebrating 1year since my last LHE losing month (march 2008, -$136.35)

Ran GOOT these days at 3/6 (6max). Smile
Ran BAAD these days at Ongame 1/2 (5max). -$500!! Sad
I dont know why they have 5max instead of 6max.

So, i havent lost focus on my set objective of moving up to 5/10, but i'm trying to build that confidence along with the roll. I have become much more conservative in BR management after realizing how big my StDev is. And I would like to log at least 50k hands at 3/6 (6max) before. 33k so far. 2k hands at 5/10.

The 5figure month was almost achieved on Jan.
Feb was the flipside of the coin, tho, with big losses at Bodog, and compensating winnings at FTP (+RB).

In the meantime, i'm grinding the Ongame $1k Bonus, and logging enough hands at FTP to keep the iron man thing going.

Done with Bodog, after so many many many problems with them. And after the big february downswing. Overall, it was still profitable. Close to +$2.5k (rb and Bonus included) in 2months.

Should finish grinding the Stars $250 Bonus i've got going, and i think i'll get the Stox DVD with the FPPs.
I know most here wouldn't buy a poker dvd ever. But what can I say, I'm a fan!

Anyways, just keeping this alive until I post my stats update (when I reach 400k hands). Coming soon!

In the meantime, keep on truckin! And GL to u all!

Holy Guacamole! I ran bad today!

looking at my biggest lost pots...
boat vs quads
str8 vs flush
3 overpairs vs sets
the list goes on...

lost about $600 at 3/6 today. Good thing all those big pots where just coolers and account for about $400 in losses

for the rest, it was ok, a little micro-tilt, but ok.

ordered it today, its back in the shop. The other items should all be available in Europe, but you can look at the link at the bottom of the opening shop window: view items available in your country

I know i'm a douche to all u americans, but one thing...
the fact that it is not allowed to be a leftist in your nice "capitalist democracy" doesnt mean you should censor the internet. Calling for demonstrations on May 1st is IMO totally right ANYWHERE!

PS: not that i'd be a leftist, I say "kill all hippies"

i dont understand what the "start a riot may 1st" thing is all about. starting a riot just to start a riot would be pretty dumb. but, if a protest has some sort of significant meaning, then so be it. however, protesting in the US is a bit different....amendment 1, "right to peaceably assemble." ...or something close to that. riots are NOT peaceful assembly, and, therefore, are against the constitution.

i agree with anyone's right to protest something, but i dont agree with getting in my face about it or disrupting the general flow of a day (blocking traffic, for example). i know you would feel its the only way to get noticed, but i still dont think its fair to get in my face about something i likely dont give a shit about for your personal agenda.

i am right-winged, but not too vocal about it. i know you, asd, are left of me to be sure, but it doesnt have to make us douches towards each other (which we arent). so, i dont get why someone would jump in and slam the proverbial door on any thread for any reason....other than spamming or ruthless flaming.

start any thread you want, in the appropriate forum, and if it grows legs, it grows legs. the ultimate bitchslap to censorship is my right to either view/participate or avoid/ignore.

for instance, alcohol and smoking taxes. i dont care. i drink, but i dont smoke. i pay taxes on what vice i participate in. if it bothers me too much, i avoid that particular vice.....and therefore dont pay the tax. no big deal. toll roads are another great example. if you dont like the toll, take another route. (of course this is provided the revenue generated goes to something remotely related to the subject matter that generated it in the first place.)

i dont understand where you think it isnt allowed to be a "leftist" over here. we have a rather liberal (prolly not by your standards) government right now, with a president that is on the same page. and, they are spending us deeper into oblivion, imo. plenty of people voted for all of them, not just Obama.

and, i dont see anything wrong with capitalism, like most of you Euros. its not evil. it provides incentive to earn what you want and set the bar as high, or low, as you want. it gives choice and opportunity. sure, with that some wont feel that they are treated fairly, but thats life. its not fair. i would rather government just stay out of my way and let me provide for myself. but, things arent as much that way as they were just 50 years ago over here, either. oh well. nothing i can do but keep voting the way i vote.

however, i dont punish you for your thoughts, or spenda for his. thats the beauty. we can all get along......if we keep an open mind to the fact that WE dont know all the answers....or best way of doing something....ourselves.

oh, and that goes for poker, too. thats why mature people in forums provide an outstanding learning ground for the average player. and, thats also why a democracy provides an outstanding opportunity for ALL. and, if someone doesnt like it, like a toll road, they can go somewhere else.

You weren't censored, you started multiple shitty threads with no indication you were thinking or trying to make a point.

And you are rocking a swastika in your avatar. How is that not free speech? You are saying you believe in a totalitarian government that committed genocide based on prejudice and hate.

And "kill all hippies", wtf? I hope you are just failing at comedy, because otherwise you are a fucking biased racist idiot. The hippies are decedents of the french, everybody knows this.

multiple? yeah, i guess you can call 2 threads, multiple.
making a point? how many comune threads actually make a point?
I will add how my last post here about FTP store support has been deleted (don't know why, and i do call that censorship).
