I play $ games and € games. I have a $ acct and a € acct at stars. (There are British pound games as well, never played one tho)

I just always did this, but never really thought about how to best approach this.

Any advice or thoughts?

I only realised that we could play euro tables when i was at 25nl, and it's probably the best thing i ever did. Euro tables are on average definitely softer than $ tables, although both are going to be soft at micros, i'm 100% on the belief that euro tables have more fish. Any reg who doesn't add in euro tables to $ tables is just stupid after finding this out imo, because like you know, you can easily convert your currency between either. :)

Basically, more table selection = more EV. Easy game.

I've been thinking about this recently...only played the $ tables so far. To set up a Euro account do you have to transfer some of your BR into it from the $ account? Or is everything done automatically when you buy into the table?

Do it asap :)

Yeah you can make it auto-convert, so as soon as you enter a euro table it just takes the right amount of $ over to it, and whenever you finish you can click on your $ account and click convert currency to USD and then just convert the euro's back. Might see you at 6max 25nl if you're playing soon :D I'm pretty drunk and don't wanna risk a ton of money ha ha

Will do, only reason I didn't before was cos I was unsure of how it worked having different currency accounts.

I don't wanna play against you dude, you'll probs take all my money even if you are ratarsed :)

But do you have 2 accounts, like I do? One in $s and one in €s? Or do you do one and convert? And why?

Yeah, you can just convert between them whenever you want, so if you do have 25 in your euro account then it'll just take it from there when you sit at 25 euro table, but if you dont it'll take 25 euro's from the $ account and put it there.
