In about a week I will have my epassporte account loaded and looking to move from UB's paultry table selection.

I will be playing $50PLO.

So, my 2 choices:

1. FT
2. Stars

I'll have bonus/rb at FT and the amount of tables looks OK. But, if they are anything like their NL games then I don't want to have 3-4 regs at every table.

Any suggestions? I think Swigg and Goat play at these sites. Also, I know Fnord has played on both sites and Im sure Salsa has some good idea of the games as well.

Thanks for the help.

i think FT is more easily beatable than stars. Although I did destroy stars 50PLO. A problem you'll find is that you can't seem to get enough games of 9-max. Most tables you find are 6-max.

FT players seem to be more gambooly and there generally are more fish (though less than what I'm used to). That and the rakeback would make FT my choice.

Yea, I play 6max salsa.

Should I be thinking more about Full Ring?

Thanks for the advice, I think I'll go to Full Tilt first for bonus/rb while grinding the roll up to somehwere respectable for PLO100 (~$3k)

One more question, you say you killed 50PLO. What is a winrate for killing the game?

If you don't want every1 to see it I understand. You can PM me.

Winrates are lame and PLO is a really swingy game.

You're killing the game when you can read hands, get it in with the best of it (or at least drawing live) and notice your opponents making lots of mistakes.

Thanks, any opinion between FT and Stars?

Just dropped $900 in 3 hands in 3 minutes playing perfectly. Turn all in with 2 pair against a known fish with overpair, 8 outs FTW. Then flop all in with 2 pair + flush draw against the same fish with 1 pair, and he gets a runner runner straight. Then my QJJT sees a KJ5 board with a 2nd nut flush draw in a raised pot, goes all in on the flop, and runs into a KKxx that makes quads. GG

Kills the fucking win rate. I'm so pissed off. Words can't describe how pissed off I am.

I think you'd be killing the game if you can achieve a 8BB/100 win rate at low stakes over 50,000 hands.

Statements like this make Baby Jesus cry. Defer to my prior post.
