I decided to visit a site I hadnt played on in a couple months since I've been out bonus chasing. Site is Fortune Poker. So I deposit $50 a two days ago just to have someplace to play during the times when the B2B network is empty. Decided to play 0.5/0.10 tables so I could play 5 of them. Usually I only play 3-4 at the 25NL and 2-3 at the 50NL.

Anyhow one table I join there is a guy sitting there with $115 at the 10NL table. Either I missed the other guy who had $104 or he entered after I had played a few hands and had to sit with that big a stack because thats what he left another table with, I dont know. Also there was another with $65. So thats 3 pretty big stacks for 10NL.

So I'm playing on one of the other tables when I see the $115 stack through out a $5 bet, and then $15, so the other stack must have raised him and he called pre flop, so I go back over there to see who he's playing against and its the other big stack that was over $100. Flop comes and the bigger stack bets $20, the other guy calls. Turn and big stack bets $70, other stack calls and is all in. River comes and big stack wins pot with QQ, smaller stack was chasing a heart flush with 3 hearts n the board and he had one heart in his hand which was the Ace. So he lost $104 chasing an almost impossible flush, probably hoping an Ace would hit the board.

Big stack takes down $200+ on a 10NL table.

No bonus on Fortune. Just a lot of players that really value top pair, and alot of times high card. I've had them call $2 final bets with the board showing mid pp and them hoping they have high kicker. Fortune will probably be my home when bonus hunting slows. Plus I have rake back there. But thats not much value to me right now, since I'm not playing there much. I put $50 in two days ago and its up to almost $100 now and thats just nut camping on the 10NL for about 3 hours total in those 2 days. Thats 5 tabling also. I'm basically playing 10NL there so I can play more tables and improve my multi-tabling.
