Finished Full Tilt Promo

Just finished the Full Tilt Promo.

Blast.

I'm down $110 from my original deposit, and I haven't cleared any of their bonus money yet. I'd like to chase the bonus money if it was faster to accumulate at the levels I play ($50/NL), but I've played well over 500 hands there over the past 24 hours and only have $14 of bonus money in my "pending" account. It has to reach $20 before they'll release it.

Besides gwaking at SpiritRock and Phil Ivey go all-in for $20k each, I'd say Full Tilt is by far the worst place a beginner/intermediate player can play.

I was the fish, and I got caught. [frown] I'm not -$110 bad.... Couldn't catch a flop to save my life. Had tons of pocket pairs (99, 77, 33, 66, 55 all at one table), but hit NOTHING on the flop. Had tons of AK, AQ, AJ, A10, and each time, a different over card would hit the flop. I couldn't bet anyone out of the pot, and generally felt bad about each and every flop. When I did hit a flop (A7 - flop brings AAQ, turn 7, river 2), I check to the river and get $2 out of the hand.

I bet all the players there had me tagged "green"!

I'm not going back.
