Im having a terrible time trying to clear the Pokerstars reload..

ChoicestHops · #1 03-16-2005, 04:40 AM

Im currently -10bb/100 hands after almost 1800 hands. Ive only got about 500 fpp's as well. I've had everything possible happen to me. Ive split full houses, had AA, AK, AQ, KK, QQ, JJ, etc all cracked many times each where Im showing no profit with any of them. Been rivered out a many times.. everything.

I wish I'd never come to Stars 1/2.

Edit: I know Im complaining on only 1800 hands, but after all the hot cards I have gotten I would need them again and not get the bad beats, but I can't see me getting the cards I need to get me to a break even point. That is all.

Maybe wait until all the other bonus whores are done, and then come back to stars and finish off your bonus when the ratio of fucktards is higher.

I've been playing the $3/6 and $5/10 6 max tables to clear my bonus and they are pretty juicy.

I lost money this reload too. At least when you collect the bonus it will help offset your losses.

I cleared it in about 4 hours Saturday night, about 60% 2/4, the rest 3/6. The 3/6 game was much looser. You're almost there, though, why not play a few sit n gos? You get 5FPP per $1 of rake.

I've also been playing the 2/4 and 3/6 6 max tables, and like someone said before me, they are juicy! I was surprised as I had always read they were tough.

You playing full ring?

Try the 6-max. Bonus clears faster and it's way softer.

yeah, I've been utterly raping the $2/4 6 max...it seems to me Stars is always fishier when the bonus is going on.

ChoicestHops · #10 03-16-2005, 04:17 PM

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I might try 6 max in a bit. I just dont see what Im doing wrong. My other position pre-flop is about 16% and with the blinds it is around 21%. Ive got about a 40% showdown win rate. I could just be getting a bad run of cards with my EV+ cards..
