February Fever Poker Chat

feitr · Feb 11, 2009

Ok thanks. Yea it will be a little while before i would bother needing 2 sites (600nl+ is very sparse at party) but i definitely think i need to look in at playing somewhere else as well (will probably go back to stars as well once my exclusion ends - yea i'm dumb - and deposit a little and use really bad roll management to try and run it up to something...unless they ever increase my deposit limit) so i'll have some options to get games. Coz right now even at 1/2 most of the day there isn't even any point in trying to play coz there are like 10 regs sitting waiting and they auto sit out if you try to play them and it is even worse at 2/4. And since party has a max # of HU tables taht can be open at once in a particular stake, sometimes you can't even get a free table to sit in and in any case i don't have the patience to wait 30mins to get 2 tables going.

I just was not impressed with titan at all. The bonus cleared so slowly that i just left after clearing like $30 of it (i think it was <20% clearance rate). But yea i've heard if you know ppl you can get some insane ipoker rakeback deals.

I emailed in just now ... what sucks is that Western Union is the only way I can deposit on Stars and the fees are ridiculous. $750 deposit requires a $56 fee for WU. Nuts.

Jagsti · Feb 11, 2009

Do you have to put in a deposit bonus code for stars or does it just automatically give you the bonus?

Crystal Blue · Feb 11, 2009

bash25 I think, though not certain.

EDIT: It says it in that link somewhere

I hav'nt really checked out the HU tables since my last free $5 on Titan (ran it up to $400 playing HU plo ) I am playing the FR tables mainly the 8 player ones.

As for the deal i got on Paddy Power, its a 150% deposit bonus, which is clearing pretty easily, and a level boost in thier VIP programme. The VIP scheme seems better to me than stars, the equivelent of gold star nets me $120 in straight cash without any clearance, and I get to keep the points, which can also be transfered for cash.

I don't have a rakeback deal, but once my bonus is cleared im gonna whore another skin until PP offers me another reload bonus.

Edit : Oh and seriously there is so many more fish on i-poker than on stars, the shortstackers are so bad that I actually don't overly mind playing with 3-4 of them on my tables. (Raise QJ UTG, and stack off to a 3bet type bad)

Any idea how long it would take to clear 1000 padddy power points playing 25NL?

Hello Sean,

Thank you for your email.

Unfortunately, the deposit limits for Western Union are set by our
processor and we are unable to increase them.

But then I realized the max deposit for WU is actually $1800 so i am getting that confirmed now by support.

OK really not sure for 25nl, but for 100nl 6mx, I easily get 1k points for playing a few hours 4tabling.

Jurn8 · Feb 11, 2009

can anybody recommend any DC series to watch. I am a FR player + have downloaded all FR vids but any to do with mental game or general poker concepts.

I have got the +EV series, any others? I have downloaded like 35 vids in the last 20 mins from there.

Thanks for your help

Its kinda stupid, ive sent over 3k for things non poker related with WU. Why would the biggest poker site in the world not get a bigger limit... 3k...5k or more?

It makes little sense that they cannot process over $1800, its going to take me 3 days, and 3 extreamly high western union fees to get my deposit onto pokerstars.

BelgoSuisse · Feb 11, 2009

Wow, pity you US guys. Reloaded $1k already. Took money out from FTP to neteller (instantly), emailed stars to upgrade my limit to $1k (took 2 minutes), got the upgrade from PS (about 3 hours later), then moved the money from neteller to PS (instantly). No fees at any stage apart from a $30 MGR hit on FTP that will translate into $8 in lost rakeback.

Richyl2008 · Feb 11, 2009

This was kinda freaky imo. Same hand vs same player in the blinds, different tables but less than 1 min apart.

No, when I want to brag, i post a "month so far" update...

... Although tbh, the volume is kind of a beat, imo.

zachvac · Feb 11, 2009

Yeah they upped my echecks limit and I got 1k on there no problem. Just about to request a cashout to get it back into the bank account lol.

Tygran · Feb 11, 2009

Gotta love stars support

...

If you would like to take advantage of the full bonus, we suggest you make
a deposit for $600.00 which would be the maximum you can deposit today and
allow 24 hours to be able to make a new deposit for the remaining $400.00.

It is important to keep in mind when making your deposits that you do not
enter the bonus code. Please email us back tomorrow when you have
completed the full $1,000.00 deposit and we will apply the bonus manually
for you.

If we can be of any further assistance, please let us know.

Regards,

Christina

Why do they let some players up the limit to 1k and others have to deposit spread over 2 days?

With that winrate I think you can take the minor 7k hands beat

No idea... unless it was that I didn't specifically ask for an increase in deposit limits whereas I believe whoever it was who posted earlier did?

Either way...don't really care so long as I can get the full bonus with no problems

Slacker! I've played 11K. Of course I guess moving to HU is cutting into your hands played.

Still shooting for 500K and your $100.

I was playing someone the other day and was dealt pocket aces. He bet it up and when it got to me I raised. By the time the flop hit we had it all in and he showed me queens and lost.

Two hands later, I was dealt AA again and sure enough, AIPF the guy shows me QQ again.

My aces held again. He didn't rebuy. LOL
