For months now I have been playing on a great number of sites, usually to participate in forum events. As I've been completely snakebit for months in CC events I've decided to consolidate my funds on 1 or 2 sites and focus on my bankroll for a while. I know one will probably be Stars as I have my biggest bankroll there and I like the SNG structure. Not sure what the other will be, maybe Fulltilt or the site I'm checking out for the forum.

In any event, I don't think I'll be at very many forum events anymore unless it's where I have my funds. I'd normally be in the Stars game on Friday but I'll be heading towards Atlanta Friday afternoon so I'll miss this one. I will keep the Titan leaderboard up to date as long as someone posts a screenshot every week. Cashed out of Titan yesterday along with a few other sites so I won't be in the Saturday events anymore. If I can reacquire some focus, and my bankroll, in the coming months I'll probably come back to whereever we're playing. If you see me on Stars be sure to say hi...

I made this point a few months Dave, and Ive since gone away from what I've said since and deposited on poker.com/FT/paradise/titan to play different events. I think that your dead correct on this one Dave, ill have to do the same shortly.

My main site is also Stars Dave, but im starting to enjoy the format of the
Full-Tilt sit and go's more and more. So I think that Stars and FT will be my two main sites from now on (well at least after the Xmas)

I'm leaning towards those 2 sites as well TB. I'm also intrigued by the site I've been checking out for CC (they offered us a freeroll) as they offer PL draw tables and the software has some nice features. I'm not thrilled by their cash-out speed however as it's been 3 days and the money has yet to appear in my neteller account. I am going to keep a little on Pokerroom in case the team stuff gets off the ground...

Sounds like you're just getting burned out on the whole multi-site thing. I don't blame you. Maybe I should focus on my Stars account for a while also. Right before I came back after my layover from CC I was on the TLB over there. I wrote it off as a fluke. Maybe it wasn't.

I agree with you all,different sites,set ups etc. to play at and I would really like to get it down to a couple. Like brianna need to focus on one site but maybe no more than 2. I just can't concentrate with jumping from one to another all the time. Sometimes doesn't feel comfortable or fun like it use to,you know what I mean? Dave we'll miss you at the tourney and hope your trip to Atlanta is safe and prosperous.

It kinda came to a head when i was playing a CC event, prob was i was also in the late stages of a sit and go at stars. Over-bet rags on CC (won the blinds lol) But folded AA with a raise ahead of me on my stars game:mad:

Just a report on the new strategy. Played in 2 3 table SNGs at Stars last night and cashed in both. Never had the cards or the chips to be dominant but stole my way to the final table and took a third and a second. Added $60 to the Stars bankroll so I call the evening a success...

Spent the weekend playing stud and draw, added another $80 to the bankroll. Focusing on a minimum numbers of sites has helped me greatly and I'm going to stay with this for the near future. I've just about completed my cashouts from all the sites where I had a little money and my Neteller account is starting to look OK again. Kept some cash in FT so I should be there Friday night...

I dont think you`ve been snake bitten at our events at all, you`ve been on the top 10 leaderboard twice, i think, and you have won the poker.com once that i no of, cause you beat me for the win. But on the otherhand to, I wish we could contain our buyins to 3 sites, Pokerstars,Titan and Fulltilt. Like you said, i also have money all over the place and it would be much easier to have just 3 buyin sites.

No Buck, it's a totally new one that has offered us a freeroll. Nick is negotiating an affiliate agreement and when done, we'll open the doors. I've been checking it out for a week and already tripled my deposit and cleared half the bonus...

Excellent Dave. Is this because of weak players or really good play by you? I went to have some fresh fish.:) After my cash at Stars Friday I can afford to move money around again.;)

Little bit of both really. Had a great run of cards but there's plenty of fish as well...
