Where to play? . . . . .

Trying to up my STT buy-ins to $20 as my roll is now just shy of £1k but the problem I am having is that i-poker only have limited traffic and I seem to be up against 50% of the same players in each game. Even though I have got notes, stats on them etc if they are doing the same on me it won't take them long to realise that I'm a proper TAG and not let me maximise my decent hands. (I think they know already).
Over $1k profits showing on Sharkscope (fuktheriva) with decent ROI and recently the profit has shot up but I could do with a site with decent traffic and plenty of fish (Couldn't we all).
As I can't get to grips with cash games the STT are where I want to stay and I don't really want to mix up and change my game as it's been profitable in the stakes I've been playing and every time I try to change I get shafted as my timing is all wrong and people call with any 2 cards and will call all the way down so bluffing seems pointless against these tards.
Any advice would be appreciated.
FT seems an obvious choice but I'm not sure about the standard. I could always stay where I am on the $10 but will feel like I'm mssing out on doubling the return. Also any more than 2 tables at a time and I don't get enough information on the opposition so I end up joining a game every 20 mins. (Maybe I'm the tard lol).

Away in Devon (Brixham) from now til Tuesday with the Wife trying to sort things out so def not going to be playing too much poker (don't want to take the piss) but with being on the beer today and then mooching around until we go home Tuesday hopefully we can just resolve a few issues as our lad is staying with his Nan. I have my negotiating pants on so we'll have to see what happens.

Anyways good luck all.

Joke -

3 men on their honeymoon are talking. Each one reckons he will shag his Wife the most that night. They decide to let each other know the number of times by the amount of toast they order at breakfast the following morning so their Wives don't get suspicious.
The next morning the first man order 3 pieces of toast, the 2nd man orders 4 pieces of toast and looks pleased with himself until the 3rd man shouts "I would like 6 pieces of toast and make 2 of them brown!!"

Definately try Full Tilt. Large selection of SNG's and softer than Pokerstars (apparantly)

Can't comment on the stt players but if the mtt ones are anything to go by I'd go for FT also.

Good recent run too, wd!

Alternatively, jib Lex off and use the code off my blog Gav ;)

Gavin said...

LOL Mr Origami. Are you offering 30% by chance. I already have an account with FT so may need to open another to take advantage if thats an option
