Stars bonuses

[sfer]

bdk3clash pwns short-handed low-limit Stars games. That is all.

I RUN GOOT.

Seriously, you guys should do their current reload bonus if you haven't. The $3/6 6-max games seemed really, really soft, but I might be biased because I ran good and all.

Stop that loser talk. You pwned them, plain and simple. I want that win-rate over 10 BB/100 by the end of the week.

That statement would have been even better if you ended it with a strong "or else".

About to start that reload soon. Full tables are probably tight as ever... /images/graemlins/frown.gif

If you ever wanted to mess around with shorthanded play, you should try it out at Stars. The games certainly aren't as retardo-aggressive as on Party, but for bonus clearing purposes they rule.

That's probably a good idea in all honesty. 6-max scares me, because I don't think I'm comfortable pushing the marginal hands that you need to push, and I'll admit that I probably sacrifice some EV at full-ring to somewhat limit my variance. So, maybe some time at the $1/$2 6-max is in order.

I'm a little short of the BR needed for 3/6 (only have $2K right now). Are the shorthanded 2/4 games as soft?

I haven't played Stars since my micro micro days, but I'm intrigued by this bonus. I just deposited $600 into the site -- I guess I have to leave it for 48 hours now before I can withdraw it. I'll have to try their shorthanded play sometime; I beat up on Party 1/2 6max all the time, but really, who doesn't? Today was a fun one -- swings of 75BB up and 75BB down, to end the day 10BB down. Ugh.

They are.

In 700 hands since depositing for the bonus I'm only down 50BB, which is about half my usual loss rate.

At Stars $1/2 6-max, you get an FPP about 1 hand in 5. The pot has to reach $15 to get the point. You're talking over 3000 hands to clear the latest bonus. The game is pretty soft though. Just let me know your screen name so I know who to avoid /images/graemlins/wink.gif.

Did you punctuate this correctly? (http://www.slate.com/id/2111172/)

You will never find me on Stars, I'm too well disguised. My screen name is the same as on here, and my avatar is the same too. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

It takes $15 in the pot for it to be raked?? That doesn't sound right. Guess I'll stick to full table ring.

If the 2/4 6-max is similarly soft, it looks like it would be a bit faster, since the pot only needs to get to $20 to hit the FPP rake limit.
