Well the first week of stars has been interesting.

Red line took a massive dump and there doesn't seem to be much I can do to revive it. Not sure if I want to give out my Stars ID now, I think I'll keep that private for the time being. It's been a bit weird to adjust to the Stars games, I HOPE I'm starting to get the hang of it but they're definitely different than FTP. Whether that means stars is harder or easier I have no clue, but as of right now I definitely prefer the FTP games and think it's easier there, but that's only because I've spent the last 2 years playing those games and know them very well.

I think the problem lies mostly in that I refuse to play non-50bb games at 2/4, but the only people that play those games are regs and it's mostly fish and shortstacks at the non-50bb tables. In that case I have to play regs who all seem to be 1ptbb winners at best, which on the surface seems good for me but I've yet to really "figure" them out so to speak. Their problems probably lie in having poor turn/river play, whereas they seem to be solid preflop. Everyones spewy on FTP, so it's higher variance but it's a lot easier to play bigger pots with mediocre stuff because people are so aggro, on Stars it alternates frequently from playing with nit grinders to people who are playing decently.

If anyone plays msnl at Stars and wants to talk feel free to pm me.

I wanna get the 200k vpp supernova, but I think there'll be a pretty big dilemma once FTP does their anti-SSer thing and if Stars doesn't follow suit then all the SSers on FTP will go to Stars, causing an even bigger problem for Stars regs.

I definitely noticed a big difference between the FTP/PS games. Everytime I see someone jump on PS and suddenly have a 3-bet of 10%+ I think "Must be a FTP guy."

Now I really am a busto. Thanks FTP.
