What's Your Edge

I have exactly 6,666 more VPPs that I need to get by the end of December to get Supernova status. I have been grinding a lot of 100NL FR on Stars and man ... has it been a learning process.

I feel like my game is full of leaks (which is why I'm playing 100NL), but I have also identified quite a few of them in the last few days and am starting to make good adjustments. I'm also starting to see clear spots to fold sets - something I could never do at 6-max.

I'm also starting to get comfortable with playing 15 tables. I have messed around with 18 and 21 but find that I just end up timing out all over the place. Meh. I tiling them instead of putting them one on top of another. I think the people that 24 table put them one on top of another. I don't think I could do that at this time.

I have two 24-inch monitors and am able to tile 12 tables on one screen with up to 9 on the other.

I do have a question for those of you that play 100/200NL on Stars and FTP. From your experience how does Stars compare to FTP as far as difficulty at the 100NL limit? I think I'll post that to 2+2 as well cause I'm curious.

there arent as many multi-tabling nits on full tilt, especially at 200nl. everyone at PS just grinds at FR to get their supernova status and whatnot.

i agree the FR on stars seems more nitty than FT

it kinda depends on what type of player you are. FT could certainly be considered harder because the play is more aggro and less nitty, but it may be easier in a sense to profit more because it's not just a rockfest. PS is less variance and easy to exploit the nitty regs, but more of a grind.
