    Default Rush Week

    This week is rush week on Full Tilt. Some promotion they are doing to get more people into this mega money maker for the site.

    I got hit hard by variance. I played a small amount of hands, 250. I saw the flop on less than %10 and only went to 3 showdowns.

    I got stacked all three times calling all-in preflop with a dominating hand.
    AA vs J5s
    AKs vs AQos
    KK vs AKos (this hand is closer to 70:30.. but I am still a fav)

    I suppose maybe I'll catch a few cards by the end of the week.

    Update, 1 hour later I play a few more hands and delivered a bad beat myself.

    AK vs AKs.
    We both hit Ace on flop. I check raised him and he 4bet me all-in. Then I hit runner runner to hit a backdoor flush.

    Wow this site is delivering a lot of sick hands Today

    Good that you can see its just variance. Just keep playing correctly, and it will all even out (hopefully in your favor).

    Hopefully I can afford to survive long enough to even it out. Got beat up 4 buy-ins tonight. Most were bad beats. I did lose 1 buy-in to a call with QQ vs AA.

    Time to take a break

    i wish there was a level in between silver and gold. i play 10nl rush and get the 100 ftps pretty easy but 1000 would take all day. they shoulda put like a 500ftp level for like 100 bucks

    I went for bronze, but easily lost more money trying to get just the 10 pts than the $10 they gave me. I put my money in good most the time, but FT has tagged me as "unlucky" right now.

    i got silver easily and profitted during rush week so the $50 was a nice extra bonus. did we already get the bonus money?
