I was going to start this discussion when I got back, but I figure that might be a bit too late.

I'm heading to vegas for a few days for a pool tournament. I'll probably spend more time playing poker than pool. I withdrew $1k from my PS account, leaving about $200 in there. When I get back, I expect to have more than I left with, but that might not be the case. I play more live than online, but I'm not sure I relish the idea of a month of grinding just to get back to where I was before I left. Also, I just got a 50% reload bonus for FT via email. How would you do it in my shoes?

a. regrind
b. split winnings/losses between live and online rolls
c. send $600 to FT and grind there till bonus is done and move back to stars
d. go to another site that has bigger bonuses, then move back to stars

any suggestions or insight welcome

Id deposit at a site w/100%bonus. And use stars for tourneys.
On the other hand splitting roll between sites is not nessesarily a good thing...

If you have rakeback at FT I'd play there for the bonus.

Otherwise, redeposit a comfortable BR for the last stake you were beating unless you need the money for something else. I keep my online and live BRs separate, but I don't play much live.
