| I tried playing FR 100NL on there and it was a goddamned rock garden. On top of that support would not recognize the affiliate that I signed up through, so I left. |

i'm thinking of heading there to stack some fast clear bonuses - playing FullTilt for Rakeback+fish may not be optimal EV.
what's it like there? Bonus clearing looks pretty good - I'm thinking 10-15 tabling 50 or 100nl |

people don't 3-bet much here huh..
and they like to see flops! limper's Paradise
shame the tables aren't very adjustable - limited to 8-tabling at the moment. If i figure out how to play more tables i may become a reg here...
shortstackers aren't so bad cos they aren't very good... |

Hi,
I'm a German student, playing NL200 SH at Everest. Want to move up to NL400 soon.
Do you get r*k*b*ck too, or only the Bonus?
best regards |

There is no Rakeback (yes you can spell it) on Everest at all. But the Bonus's are stackable and they are plenty if you pay attention.

I'm Nuckin_Futs on Everest, I play exclusively on Everest. I get $500/month in bonuses, i need to accumulate 10 000 SPs/ month to clear it, i can usually clear 500 SPs/day with ease, and 2000/day if i have to. I just started doing MTTs there, i missed the first week so the other players got a head start on me on the May tournament leaderboard, but I've clawed my way upto 6th. The winner of the leaderboard gets 160 000 SPs which is equivalent to $600 in tournament buy-ins. Between the leaderboard and the Bonus I can get $1,100/ month in extra cash.
I might put $600 on Full Tilt but clearing my monthly Bonus and winning the leaderboard will be my priorities. Full Tilt will be for the days between when I clear the Bonus and I get the next one.
Another good thing about Everest is the Gold Token(GT) system,1 GT = $100 tournament buy in. You can play qualifiers for $100 events, qualify and then unregister and they give you the GT. I have even used a GT to play a sattelite to a WSOP main even qualifier worth $500, won and unregistered for a profit of 4 GTs. My Sunday 100ks are payed for for quite a while now.
The only drawback to Everest is that I have to wake up at 9am and play until 6 or 8, any later than that and it gets very slow, since most of the players are Europeans.
http://www.EverestPoker.com/en/tournament/leaderboard/multitable.html
If you look closely you can see that i got an extra $500 this month, they mailed me a letter saying they were giving me an extra $500 to use for WSOP qualifiers, I guess they want me to represent them, I am going to keep doing the $3500 package qualifier because it's $2,000 in travel expenses, mostly which will go to my bankroll . I've done 1 qualifier and i was very very close, I don't tell bad beat stories but it did come down to 1 hand and that's all I'll say. They really take good care of their regulars!!
b.t.w. If you're opening an account they give $50 refer-a-friend bonuses, so you can use SN: Nuckin_Futs Email: ky_ace_76@yahoo.com  |

If anyone signs up, remember to use the links on FTR when you go to download it. I missed out on the $200 signup Bonus (v's standard $100) because I went straight to the site myself without following links.
Playing 25NL 6-max and its a dream. Every table is at least 40% VPIP, lots of folding to 3-bets, lots of folding to c-bets and very little 3 betting. Main risk is the 70% vpip guys calling down with 2-pair instead of middle pair when you're taking them to value town.
As for the bonuses, is it just a matter of keeping an eye on your email and when you login, or are there tips you can give for finding them? |

| Anyone figure out a good use of these summit points? I have around 10K and no Bonus to clear at the moment. Either I make some extra cash with them or I am moving on to a new site. |

The Summit Points tables are donktastically spewy. It's easy to build them up to get higher dollar tournament entires, if you're into that sort of thing. That's about the only use for the points. |
