Is it possible to 24 table on any of these sites with the ease that you can on Stars? By getting the 300k Milestone bonus this year I'm going to be up over 35% rakeback at stars.

Prob not, I can just about 16 table on I-Poker, but its way above the amount of tables I usually play.

6 Tabling on I-Poker atm, prob around 15K hands per month on nl$50/100 and my RB is ~52%. Get where I'm coming from ?

On Paddy I got a $600 deposit bonus (150%) and a VIP level up boost (which you need because it takes 3 months to get to your level otherwise). Which basically is a points multiplier like stars, except you can sell your points. The bonus releases in $5 chunks as well which is nice. The VIP levels also give you straight cash on the 1st and 15th of each month which dosnt need to be cleared.

TBH check it out there is loads of I-poker skins around offering lots of nice stuff. I am also getting what seems to be a bottomless 100% reload bonus (well so far anyway).

Don't go posting poker site linkage here guys :) I will get onto Nick later on and see has he any nice deals for us.

On another note...

If you are into PC gaming, left 4 dead is a fantastic tilt/stress reliever.

http://www.l4d.com/game.htm

Although I've had two positive sessions in a row so hopefully will end the month on a high note. I should end the month on the positive side for money won but that's only because of tournaments cashe (a $1k cash tends to do that:D.. and I'm 4 for 7 on being ITM in tourny's this month)... cash games have been a disaster.

... and all this talk has me wanting to move to Europe somewhere.

I have some friends in Prague, and very nearly made an attempt to go over there about a year and a half ago on a possibly permanent basis. I love that city. (obviously, I would be doing this for many reasons far greater than poker)

Stupid, hypocritical American poker policies lol.

Yeah, it seems to. I think if you go for SNE it's like 40-50% rb at 200nl or something.

If you decide to go for 2/4 LHE it works out at like 100% rb if you play crap loads of volume.

I think Platy works out at like 20% rb!?

My confidence is entirely shot right now. I have ~broken even for over 100k hands and I have no idea whats going on. Every donk on this planet shows up with the absolute top of their range every time i have a hand against them. I've nearly broken my hand on my desk about 15 times in the last week.

:(

ugh, ever had coaching bw ?
maybe not necessary but could be helpful if only for the sole fact that someone who knows their stuff tells you that you're doing the right things.

or get sweated and get the same result ? :)

Oh and milestone I guess.
Although it's kind of skewed with bonus and rakeback and stuff:

Anyone got any coaches they recommend? Might help me get my head screwed back on straight.

I've had a couple sessions with terp from deucescracked in the past but looking for someone new.

If I was to write a summary of April, this would be about how I would put it.

I doubt you need a coach. Just take a week off and don't think about poker, then come back when your head is cleared/confidence not so shot.
