Fist post

Since everyone is doing this I thought I'd jump in. Currently in limbo about what site to play on. Party is screwing me since I changed my account to £ so when I deposit it all gets converted and I lose out. Basically means all bonuses are cut in half. Its still ok there if I dont deposit I guess but Im looking elsewhere atm.

So, started a few days ago at FTP and its going OK. Played 50nl/100nl the last few days and got sucked out on and made some dodgy plays leaving my $500 dep to only $250. I know thats a really small amount but dont wanna get screwed on exchange rates. Cashed out some money on Party to neteller and seems I got an OK deal on the conversion, may do that instead - or get my account converted. Needless to say that I won 3 buyins today so am semi rolled for 100nl.

So, a fun hand that show that FTP isnt full of nits:

Dont know if I will stay though - the software seems laggy and unsure whether the RB makes up for it not being party. Will prob try stars too but have to be a high vol player to get any benefit from their VIP program.

Will try to keep this updated and make it more interesting then this little rant. Its 1 in the morning so what can you expect
