Where to play?

mwilli31 · #1 05-11-2005, 12:17 AM

I just bought PokerTracker and have a bankroll of about $400. Built up from $30 at Pacific .10/.20 and Paradise .25/.50 (3 table) and a couple blackjack sites. I'm wondering where I should take my play at this point. Start at Party or Party skins .5/1? Pokerstars? And is rakeback worth pursuing? Any help would be appreciated.

do the sign-up bonus at empire, and just keep on doing their reloads without playing in between

I can't tell by your post, but are you playing blackjack with your bankroll? If so don't do it. It can get you in trouble.

He's (hopefully) referring to casino whoreing, and getting bonuses by wagering a certain amount in house games, least -EV being BJ

I think its a great way to boost your roll, I'll be hitting up some casino bonuses soon.

I actually did play BJ with my bankroll, but it worked out OK and now I'm concentrating on poker. I'd like to focus on working on my poker game with PokerTracker and reading SSH and others. A couple of the previous posts suggested bonus whoring at Party skins, but as far as playing .5/1, which site would be the best? Party, a party skin, PS, or Paradise?

Edit: Sorry I didn't specify. The blackjack was indeed casino whoring, so no significant risk to my BR.

Unless your just bonus whoring at the casino. Playing blackjack to clear casino bonuses is an easy way to get some extra cash for your bankroll.

i think rake back is totally worth it. i dont whore, since...well...im kind of lazy i guess and like just playing one site. but rakeback, for example on .50/1 on empire for a month i get about $150 back. awesome.
