UB Advice needed...
I'm thinking about opening an account on UB and needed some advice. Is it a good site in terms of rakeback' Are the SNGs and MTTs decent enough' Do they payout in a timely fashion' Is it worth my time' The main reason I'm setting up the account is for Rakeback since I missed out on FTP rakeback and Pokerstars doesn't offer it. thanks for the help.

thoughts?
can picking up aces over and over, raising 3x from UTG/EP each time, and continuously not getting action (aka picking up the blinds) be considered running bad'

SNG decent flop how do you proceed?
Only read on villain is that he amped it up 6.5X pre with AA earlier at the 15/30 level. I raised with position to mess with him but his pot-sized bet screams major strength due to my earlier read. I put him on either AJ/KJ or a big flush draw. That said, how do you play this flop' I don't think I have much fold equity so is it +EV to take a shot and get it in' Or should I just chill and wait on another spot Full Tilt Poker $22 + $2 Sit & Go (Turbo) No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t25/t50 Blinds - 7 players The Official 2+2 Hand Converter Powered By BB: t2950 UTG: t2090 UTG+1: ...

Re:Very interesting SNG hand--weirdly similar to the recent JJ shove/fold debate
some people just don't get it i agree. and if he was calling off 9/10 of his stack with tens do you really think he would fold for that extra 648' the standard reraise is supposed to make the hand look even stronger

Re:Very interesting SNG hand--weirdly similar to the recent JJ shove/fold debate
you play a SNG to make money. period. it's not like a tournament where playing for the win is the way to go and simply cashing doens't compare. sure, play for the win all you want but AFTER you make the money. my range is def. very wide but a large amount of the time we're racing in this situation and that's assuming he's not crushed by a higher PP.

Very interesting SNG hand--weirdly similar to the recent JJ shove/fold debate
I just don't understand the call here esp. with a guy sitting out in a 9-man SNG. his call leaves him with 648 chips when folding would all but guarantee him a cash. very similar to the JJ shove vs call vs fold thread. How does he call here' did i play this hand bad' if it's me i need QQ+ to make this call esp with guaranteed $ coming on the next orbit and his healthy stack Full Tilt Poker Game #6300744877: $22 + $2 Sit & Go (Turbo) (47943833), Table 1 - 250/500 - No Limit Hold'em - 18:23:45 ET - 2008/05/05 Seat 1: word1985 (8,065) Seat 2: LuckyhAAnd (815), is sitting ...

When to move up levels?
Over the past month I have run $50 up to just shy of 1K playing strictly $24 turbos (I know, bad BR management etc. etc. but whatever). I have been 4-tabling pretty much exclusively since I hit the $500 mark. At what point would you make the jump to $33s' And then to $55s' I might increase to 6-8 tables at the $24 level but want to hold off on that for now. Any insight here is much appreciated as I don't need to cashout and just want to build my roll. Thanks
