Rebuilding a roll, any advice?

Over a year ago I started an operation thread where I was going to make a run at 200NL for the start of 2008. The day I posted the thread, I got sidetracked with life and basically stopped playing poker until just recently. A few weeks ago(before starting up again) I decided to withdraw most of my roll to pay for a trip to vegas and to keep the wife happy .

So here I am, starting with a $200 BR(upto $270 now) and I was wondering if there is any advice out there for rebuilding a roll? I did the bonus whoring way back when so I don't think any of the "good" bonuses are available to me anymore. I really enjoyed/enjoy playing at Everest as it is very soft, but feel I need to either be clearing somekind of half decent bonus or planning for rakeback. Only two sites that I have RB on are Absolute and I think Eurobet??(sad that I can't remember )

Edit- Forgot to mention that most sites would be available for me to play on as long as they accept Moneybookers(if anyone has any site suggestions).

Any advice would be great, thanks alot.

once you get $600, move yer roll to full tilt and get rakeback + bonus. It clears in a reasonable amount of time.

Sup Trash. hope life is better?

Id probably go for volume of you feel your game is ok for 10nl 25nl, so where you can get the most hands in per hour is best (easily stars and FTP these days)

if you can play euro sites, pokeroom and its skins are super soft and id recommend those as the best games out there right now

This sounds like something I might do in the future, but is it worth it to sit there against the rocks just to clear bonus/rakeback?

euro sites are good to go for me as long as they accept Moneybookers, I'll look into whats available at pokeroom and skins. Is the software/support decent there?

I've played 60k+ hands at both FT and stars, and my less than professional opinion is that neither site is harder or easier than the other.

You want fish, go to some tiny network that no self-respecting player in their right mind would play on. Like ultimate bet

To paraphrase "I'd play 10 year olds with $200 BR's if I could". It's all about building the roll as quickly as possible. In a perfect world I'd clear a bonus, get rakeback and play fish at the same time obviously.

Ohhh...your goal is to make as much money in the shortest amount of time possible. Why didn't you say so?




if ongame is as fishy as miffed suggests I might have to move back there. They do have decent rakeback. Better than FT's but not as good as RB + bonus from FT.

yes

play start to $600, go to ft and clear the bonus, then go to noIQ

Well, I want to play sphincter tight like poker to get my roll back to what it was so I can actually play a little poker again was the idea.

Moneybookers is fine, Neteller is still cool if you can use it also.
RB deals are all crap these days, but still worth getting (easily find some for pokerroom and skins) plus sites will do you lots of bonuses (not easy to clear in small games so it may be worth looking around)
Pokerroom still have that shitty software, but if you can get 12 tables of fish up, then id hit it

so i take it you got lucky in Las Vegas but not at the tables?

Trip isn't until next month, but there wont be much pokering going on anyways . There could be some poking though

send a PM if you want i was there a few months ago for the latter reason

have fun!!!
