Yeah, same here. Last year I was thinking at the end of this year if all goes well, I may be able to pack in work. This year has certainly opened my eyes to what variance really is .

Pokerstars had cut the prices of the security tokens - but it is still no bargain for us lowly bronzestars - some of whom have a healthy bankroll there:

I don't understand, I think that the more money you want to protect, the more you should pay.

 

[Debi]

Hehe - I can go for that. I was all set to get one last month til I saw the difference in what it costs each level - then I said to hell with them lol.

 

[eNTy]

play like 20k hands of 25nl and u should get one easy...
im def getting one next month, 2k fpp is nothing for security

5k fpp away from $1k bonus, should get it easy, that was a big grind started the month at gold with 0 fpp

I know you are not talking to me since I don't play cash games...

And speaking of playing every day, I just played some 50NL 4-tabling, like I've been doing every night this month to get the points, but this one was WEIRD. I've never been dealt so many premium hands in such a short time, even multi-tabling. In one 76 minute session, playing 4 tables and a total of 327 hands, I had AK 11 times (and won with 10), AA 3 times, KK once, QQ twice. I've gone for hours without seeing a premium hand before, and tonight they all catch up with me. Too bad it wasn't during a big tourney, but hey I did end up $74 for the hour or so. 'bout time too, I've been on something like a $200 downswing over the last 2-3 days.

Following up last night's hit parade of premium hands, of course tonight makes up for it -- a 4-table session that is dry as last night's was... wet?... er, whatever. However the abysmally cold deck did warm up briefly when I got dealt AA 3 times within 7 hands on the same table, and the last one got it all in against KK on a blank flop and won. Yay me. On the downside, a bit later I flopped a full house and lost to a bigger one on the river. At least I lost the minimum due to a slowplay that planned to cash in on the river (especially after I knew he hit the A on the turn), but then the river came another A and I realized I was sunk. So I just called him down. Still ended the session up a little more than a buy-in, so I'm happy. That's the second boat over boat in about a week though, I've got to learn to stop slowplaying them EVERY time.

Im a newbie to ring, so this might be wrong to ask, but why did u not reraise him pf sindri?

Villain was a ridic aggro fish that had a huge 3bet % and 100% cbet and the original caller was a huge fish aswell.
Usualy i would just 4bet here to fold out the caller but in this case i was sure i could stack atleast one of the villain if they hit any pice of the flop since neither of them has a fold button but the 3bettor had folded to 4bets in the past.
Worked exactly as planed except SB folded prf, unfortunetly the poker gods decited traping was wrong and beat me up for it .

 

[eNTy]

either u want an rsa token, and play like 20k of nitring which is over extremely fast

or u dont

 

[switch0723]

yawn, this year i've been late to 75% of my lectures, and have failed to turn up for the other 25%. Probably going to need to fix that sometime

 

[vanquish]

the RSA token thing seems so useless

 

[Jurn8]

Iv shipped 2/2 switch!

tailored my timetble to suit my needs, mondays off and friday finish at 12

 

[vanquish]

i've binked like 85% of my lectures this semester (started sept 1st) so ship me the titties plz

granted all my classes are super hard so i pretty much have to go to all my lectures unless i wanna get another F

 

[WVHillbilly]

the RSA token thing seems so useless

How so?

 

[vanquish]

it's like paying $20 for a special butt cover that saves you in case you're getting raped

like yeah, it would suck to get raped, but i still wouldn't buy the butt cover

 

[switch0723]

agree with vanquish, the stars security code thing you can get for free is like super awesome protection. the token is just being OCD
