I must agree with some recent comments. I am going to put more money on some other sites, and go in with an open mind.

I played in a $1 -$10K tournament and was 200/8600 before getting sucked out (my set of 4s beaten by runner runner runner straight)on a hand that I have no idea why I was called since "donk" was risking 1/3 of his chips with only 200 players left-- of course he was the chip leader at table so maybe not a total donk. I thought he was sucked in by my quasi-slo-play after hitting the 4 on the flop; only he must have "known" that FTP would deal him 3 runners to his crap-backdoor-drawing-hand to produce a winning straight. But maybe it was just "poker".

Online poker that is - lol

Anyway, being that I play good poker (i think) and have played for over 20 years long before the recent hysteria over Holdem and WPT/WSOP, I should try to play higher stakes and try other sites. So (mates), I will report back in a few months after I invest a few thousand and see what happens in higher games and tournaments.

Meanwhile I am going to play my FTP $1 -$10,000 tournament tonight --- see if I can't finish in top 9. It's actually better competition once you get down to 200-300 players
