Hey all,
I have had a terrible run playing SnGs on PS and decided it was time for me to take a break from them. I figured I'd head down to the casino and play some FL 1-2. I bought in with $100 and within 4 hours I was up to $421. This got me thinking.
The next day I jumped on PS and opened 4 0.05/0.10 tables. I grinded out over 1000 hands with a 3.76BB/100 and was quite pleased. Unfortunately my friend downloaded Elephant from my PS account on my computer over a month ago without me knowing it and so when i went to use it my trial was over (I'm 54 points short of unlocking it).
The one thing that struck me as funny was that, when i finished my session I hadn't gained ANY FPPs. This doesn't seem right mainly because everyone says FL gives the most points and strategy points. If i'm not getting any points for .05/.10 I wont be able to unlock Elephant without grinding out ~120 more 3.40 STT SnGs. I dont really want to do that.
So my question is, is this normal? Is there any way I can get my Elephant License Trial redone? Do you only recieve points for FL from .25/.50 and up?
I like the feel of FL because I'm a more linear and mathematical thinker. I'm good at running numbers through my head fast and I'm very proficient with pot and implied odds. I have alot of troubles with the low buyin SnGs and dont want to grind out another 120 of them. The way people play there gives me a headache. Its Bingo not poker.
Also my poker bankroll is about 1300 but thats live, i only have 50 on the net. So if necessary i can play .25/.50 but dont really want to put my successful live poker money into bad internet play. I want to prove to myself i can be successful online as before I dump more money in.
