Ok cool, think I'll sign up now.

Is there any sort of referral thing that one of you guys already on there wants to use on me, where you get something in return for getting a member to join?

Pokerstars doesn't really have rakeback so I don't think there are many advantages to being referred by someone but I signed up through http://www.raketherake.com as sometimes they have some exclusive freerolls and you still get the standard Pokerstars 100% bonus.

If you look around there may be other offers that give you free software (HEM or Pokertracker) or free gifts when you sign up.

Cool a new gambler!

I haven't played for a little bit. Yesterday was at thorpe park but last time I played I managed to grind up to £873 playing $20NL then managed to fall to £767 in one session. It was terrible. I was only playing HUGE fish who seemed to run super super good. No point even going into it but you get the idea. I don't think any of them failed to hit when we got a big hand going. I seem to make more money out of "good" players right now than crazy aggressive people. Perhaps I am playing them wrong?

I might play a tournament or something later today or some $20NL. Not overly in the mood though after that downswing.

Is slayer sorting this GRSOP out then?

I'm going to play 4 $1 SNGs at once in the attempt to get some sort of winning streak on the go. Hopefully won't concentrate on one game too much and donk off my big stack.

Cashed 2 out of 3 so far. On the bubble on the last one.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Red Devil** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 7:17 pm

2 wins, one 2nd and one no cash. Not too shabby. 8-)

Tommorrow. Me. My Team. The Southern Challenge Cup. Its on. I bought a captains armband. Is that wrong. I don't care.

DML, if it's wrong I don't want to be right.

Thought I'd try playing again now I actually feel like a poker player again. My reads seem a little better, even if they probably make no sense looking at them after.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Rex McGee** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 10:43 pm

Hand makes no sense. :lol:

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Psychic** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 10:47 pm

It really doesn't does it? :lol:

All I can say is that we'd played about 10 hands HU, he'd min-raised every time he had the option and I felt he was sick of me pushing him around when it was 3 handed. All I can say is that I am a massive spastic who listened to the voices in his head. :lol:

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Nova** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 10:56 pm

Hey, it worked! :lol:

I'll just gonna leave mine until I get back in September. I didn't help myself by playing some FPP satellites where my wee downswing combined with the complete spastics who play them led to bad results

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Rex McGee** » Sat Jul 25, 2009 10:32 am

Yeah it might have worked but it seems a bit odd still. I just open fold still probably in a SNG.

Yesterday I made like £15 playing 7 card stud lol. That's all I did, I don't think I can bring myself to play HU until I am in the right mindset.

8 sngs, 4 bubbles I fail.
