The change

Permanent Linkby Oasis on Tue Aug 15, 2006 11:53 am GMT

Well I decided to make the change from Poker Stars to Full Tilt. I wanted to use Full Tilt when I first started playing, but figured Poker Stars was the best for its micro stakes after learning about Bankroll management. Well, much has changed since then. With my huge cash out at the casino last Saturday I decided I should start a new account on Full Tilt so withdrew my money from PS, created my account and got started.

I had big problems tracking/gathering my cash after withdrawing from PS. PokerStars made a hiccup with my transaction and put it into my Neteller account. Funny thing is, I didn't even OWN a Neteller account and was forced to create one. Cut a long story short, this created some problems with my funds and was unable to withdraw them for some time. After a few days of emails back and forth, I finally managed to explain my situation to them and a check is on the way. Yipee!!

My roll is going well at the moment, sitting comfortably on $203 and handling 10NL no problems. It's a slow grind, but I don't mind. It forces me to play a lot of poker, and i'm also grinding out those FTP's for all those delicious bonus offers.

I've adjusted my style a lot and am improving. I've been working on my cash game really hard lately, and have planned to abandon my SnG full-time idea. Once my Harrington books arrive I’ll be working on my tournament strategy a lot and will no doubt get back into them but will focus more on the MTT's for the big payouts.

In other non-poker related news I quit one of my part time jobs today. It’s a huge load off my shoulders and gives me more time to play poker, which is always a good thing.

If you want to focus on MTT's, you shouldn't have left PokerStars.
