max is unfortunately m.i.a... he refuses to talk to me. you might have to just get a deal from somewhere else. if you can wait another week or so, i'll obv try him again, but it might not amount to anything.

let me know how u feel



also i got half-life 2 today!

What are you guys talking about? RB? >35%? I want in! I WANT IN!
 
where do you want RB chuck, I know somebody who maybe able to get you something. What site?
 
noiq looks good. Maybe carbon or betfair or something. I just want somewhere I can multitable 100-400nl 6max with good rakeback and an otherwise decent site. I can get on any %30 deal from any rakeback site but if possible anything bigger is HUGE. Not propping though, that's too much work imo.

I think you really, really need to bet the turn when checked to. It doesn't have to work often at all to make it +EV. Something like 25% if you bet a little over half pot, depending on what you assume he will call with (the key point being whether he'll call with a hand that will also call a river bet).

Why not just do FTP and actually have decent software/table selection and get 27%? Or if you can keep up nova on Stars that amounts to like 30-33%. I guess if players at the other sites are worse it may make sense, but for an extra ~5% rakeback is it really worth doing a site with much worse software and probably less game selection?
 
I heard about a change on ftp that would let old non-rb players get rb, but not sure if that's true. Plus 27 isn't really better than stars.

It's not just the RB though, it's the player pool like you mentioned. Regs on anything other than stars/ftp are just horrible. I was dicking around at prima on like 25nl and seriously played 80/75 near profitably, it's ridiculous.

u have to email ftp for the rb but less than 1% of ppl who apply will actually get it, so u really shouldnt count on that

Maybe that % goes up if he tells them he is gonna play 50-60K hands a month a 400nl?
 
Also tell them you are confused as to why a friend of yours got a mail telling him that tilt were dealing out rb to old players and you didn't.

It seemed to get me into the 1% 🙂.

I figured he'd ch/jam a lot of draws on the turn forcing me to fold and by checking back the turn it looks like I have a hand with showdown value that I am now trying to get value from on the river after he checks.
 
Shippidy a 4th place in the rebuy.

Unfortunatley not enought for a vegas trip, but meh €1K+ evenings are fun.

Last hand was my reshove with 66 vs 44, he hits his set. Dont give a shite though, lovely score, cash feels so much better than online chips. ( i got paid in €20's)
