How do you like Stars system and play? I think with as low BR as <1000$, FTP is better to increase BR.
That first one aint safe anyway

If you have rakeback FTP is probably better in terms of bonuses, but i'm not eligible for rakeback so I went with Stars. I like the client a lot more than FTP and there's always loads of traffic. The support staff are really good as well if you have a problem. And with a first deposit bonus the bonuses are pretty good

Hi,
nice to meet u.I can only wish you luck because I think u are really gonna need it soon ♦
I think you should do more things to get better as a poker player but should not think much now about bonuses,reaching PS gold status and etc. .Rakeback is always good addition to BR but I would recommend not to go to FTP until you have good skills and sufficient BR for NL25.Then you can use full first deposit bonus without much stress.Also multitabling on 12 tables is not helping to analyze situations properly and you missing table dynamics things.I think u should cut your tables at least in half.When you study those articles and videos think about those situations while you play or do session review (is it possible when you play 12 ?).I think you really want those homes ( I like that first unreal ♦ ),because without skills with aggressive BRM and multitabling you can end in that NL 25. IMhhhhho aggressive BRM is for good players or for ultimate gamblers.Of course you can be not so conservative like Leatherass suggests (100 BI ) but should have at least 40BI.Not much I can tell about you from those graphs, you can post your stats every month instead.
Ok goot luck

Good morning,
just had a small session in Party, since i need to make MB deposit, to allow me withdraw, so it will take some time.

Had quite nice run of ~700 hands, somehow i there running behind red line EV :/
as i can see, last hand got EV$Diff to zero, so u ended not below EV. Anyway +4 stacks per 700 hands is awesome result ♠_cool:

Discuss hands.
Good morning guys, just moved to FTP. Had first session. First impression, things doesn't change much, i'm getting bad beats all the time and allway arround zero or minus. Lol i know it doesnt say much, but what can i do, if preflop ALL IN with AA is only like 30% W$SD. Was pretty funny tables, more fishes that i could imagin at NL10. Gonna post few hands after graph. Btw got a nice first deposit bonus, and it's easy to clear, plus rakeback, so even i make [minus 10-20$] i will basiclly make profit. With FTP i tryed PT3, so far as i go, i guess it's a bit better then HEM.
First session graph:
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
As in graph, all the time when i get close to plus, i get bad beat and drop to 10-20 minus. Anyway, i'm quite happy with my session, since a game was a bit difrent, and platform difrent too, i was not concentrated enought.
Few hands:

Nice beat down, villian was guite agressive, so i didn't play slow, and it went pretty good.
So i'm gonna keep updated guys. Btw, i have all tickets to snowball freerolls at party at october 3,4,5,6,7 i guess, gonna play those, since in a SUM, it's $100k up for share. ![]()

Nice Blog, Noticed at some hands you had less than 100bb. There are settings at FTP that makes it autobuy as soon as it is below 100bb.
Good luck at the tables
As i read in russian forum from someone from coaches, maybe BigGOGI, downswing doesn't depends on room or limit. So the best u can do - move down to limit where u feel the most comfortable and can let yourself to lost some BI and it won't affect much ur game or BR and sit there until bad beats end.

Well, i feel quite comfortable at NL10 with ~40 BI, and not like loosing a lot, just sometimes it looks like i can't get up. Everytime i'm near zero line, i get full stack bad beat with some fishy players. Either way, this was the first session, and i used PT3, witch i needed to config at the same time. I hope next session will be much better, since FTP really have more fishes then party poker from my view of gameplay.

lol, i will the same at NL25 for last 3 weeks ♠_cool:
And since i'm used both, i think HM is much better than PT in analyzing hands and your playing at all.
Hey guys, little update.
Just had a session, well got my self back to HEM, since i was with it for alog time, and i can analyze myself better with it. Well things started pretty good, had dead hands at the middle, and some sick hands at the end. You'll see at graph. Anyway, cashed $20 bonus part, and i think i have about $10 rakeback, dunno there to check it. You know? So, second session was better and i really played my game all the time.
Graph:

So increased br by ~5 BI i guess, goes pretty well so far, plus i will get Rakeback, that i don't count as BR for now. ♠_love:

I don't know if they will evolve, maybe it can help if you post them for evaluation. Anyways, I just started playing NL week ago and I'm also playing NL10 FR. Would you ever care for a nice sweat session ? I know I still have a lot to learn & improve.
Good luck
