speaking of ftp points, can one transfer the points?

they accumulate as you play in raked games or tourneys.

Takes a looooooong time at the low stakes to get anything decent

Kinda what I figured. One of these days I'm going to have to make the switch from play money to real money there. I haven't seen you online in a while, Brian. You still playing at FT?

yes but I switched account names so I could use a rakeback site.






(and so pacino would stop shark scoping me and making fun of me... )

That would certainly explain it.

yeah the rake back sites are a good deal, it's turned me into a winning player, lol

My poker game reminds me of War Games - "the only winning move is not to play".

What rake back site do you use?

Havad Khan = what a geek

Ive been using rakebrain, but theremay be a better site, I get 27% of my rake back so that amounts to about 20-30 bucks a month

Cool, thanks! I'll have to tell my Dad about it (he has been playing $$$ games at FT for about a month now).

Saturday's looking good- we may now have 6 bsgers (pr98 and alt still up in the air)

and one to rule them all

I truly hope you come in 2nd

3 tabled .25/.50 NL tonight, just for grins. Started with 50 on each table, lost all 50 on one table to a 2 outer, and I'm winding down on the other two tables now, 220 on 1 and 160 on the other. I guess I'll take that return.

I'm currently in a dollar rebuy with about 40 people left. top 80 cash and top 4 get at least 100 bucks. good ROI

I just got my ass handed to me by Bigenfun's gang.

just got knocked out of the game at my place tonight...got it all in with 77, called by 55 (by TRT) and AK (by another guy) ... i had the lead until the river King.

i flip so bad when it counts this year.

just got home, got 2nd. the guy who won seemed like he really wanted it. i stole a lot of blinds 4-3-2 handed from him and eric. congrats to him though


housh, i never knew what you had, so you had me fooled the whole time

and dan is pretty unlucky, considering two aces were folded in that hand and there were really only 6 cards that could knock you out

Congrats Pacino.

I actually was feeling alright until that hand where my queens got beaten by his aces and my stack was destroyed. Then I felt I had to get maybe too aggressive to get back in the game and that last hand just didn't work out. Not too bad for the first time, I suppose.

I thought you did fine, but I have to ask...why did you never raise with your pocket pairs like kings or queens, etc.?

Im still in good position to win the TOC points. If Eric wins I have to come in 6th or better, so I should be in good shape.
