Agreed. If you haven't played 50-100 or above, you really wouldn't understand. It tests your mettle. It makes you question who you are, how good you are, and everything you thought you knew about yourself.

It results in you playing 84o. It is very, very challenging mentally.

He rules nothing. From what I hear about Clark, he's kinda like W . . . . All hat, no cattle.

SORT of on topic but a bit of a hijack...

Is there anyone on this board who has a substantial number of hands at Party Poker PLUS at least another site or three all at the same stakes with substantially bigger wins at the non-PP sites...?

It seems from how most talk (and from my own results) that PP really is the place to be. EVEN if you're playing micro-limit $1-$2, aren't you giving up profits by chasing bonuses...?

Random early morning tangent complete.

As an aside, just remember, Chris, next time you starting losing on UB, challenge anyone to a heads-up Solomon draft.

Yea, you certainly play better than I do. But I left BOTH of these sites for the same reasons lol. The 80-160 on UB is like crack and I got killed at it. 3-tabling 20-40 and 30-60 is much less stressful and plenty profitable.

You realize that posting you think you have horrible gambling problem is just going to lead to jokes or this post being pulled up in anywhere from one week to a month when you are back at both ub and stars [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img].

I don't think you'll be missing much. The 1-2 games (especially at Stars) just aren't that good. Anyone who says otherwise is full of it and just running good. Yeah, there's moments where they are sweet, but they are few and far between. The games are usually very tough, and not worth playing.

It's a good move, and not one to sweat at all.
