Don't all the pros table select between 5/10 10/20 25/50 (and up)?
Maybe you can make enough at 1knl to eventually table select between those 3?
Yes, I guess that's what I need to do. Grind it out until 25/50 becomes an option as well.

@those who (have) play(ed) both on Fulltilt and on Stars: is Fulltilt any good (software, support etc.)? I think I have registered an account waaaaaaaaaay back in the day, so does that mean I can't get any sort of rakeback if I choose to play there?

I actually prefer FT's software over star's, but that's a matter of taste, i suppose.

Support is decent, although not as fast as pokerstars'. But tbh, the only trouble i ever had that required support's help was a couple of items from the FTP store that got lost in the mail, and they did resend them asap without any problem.

Concerning RB, it's sometimes possible to retag an account to a RB affiliate and sometimes not, depending on how it was tagged initially. I guess since you're playing high stakes, you would have some leverage to negociate with them.

The 25 billion hand was an epic fail by stars. Mega server problems, hands getting disconned in the milestone hand, and a whole load of controversy!! Seriously an epic fail!

Well if it's surprising that he's floating, then it seems like you expect a stronger hand range from him more often, and if that's the case then you should really be getting this all in by the river.

I probably just bet/bet/bet, but if you're check-raising the turn it should be to at least 10 or 12 or whatever.

Isn't that just a built-in PS deck?

Apologies, forgot I'm not on my own pc lol.
The fozzy deck actually looks very similar. The backgrounds are a bit different and so are the letters/numbers, but only slightly.

Anyway I still like this one :)
