    I play Stars and Green Joker my self, mainly just the big games on a Sunday nite. The gambling by the pros on Full Tilt is unreal at those levels Dazzler!

    Yeah some of the money is sponsored by FT but i seen David Benyamine do in over 2 million over xmas and he said he has quit online poker because the swings are too much, plus he was asking some of the pros for 50k to tide him over until his "backers" arrived with his money!!!!!

    Yea Mike and Tom are the two lads,Tom is also behind boards.ie.

    The one thing about GreenJoker on line is I am not a mad fan of the network I just cant get into it,I only have an account for playing the odd satellite.

    I did not think it could get any worse than tribeca,I used to hate the tribeca network but IPoker is a lot worse.

    Mike used to have one of thebest blogs around, never got around to playing any of their live tourneys yet but I hear they are well run

    I used to play a lot a couple of years ago, now i just go through phases of challenges of working a few bob up from nothing which generally pays for some random stuff

    Took me a while to get into IPoker but it's not too bad, i like the 180 tourneys on stars also unbelieveably soft sometimes

    used to play on paradise but that was fantasy cards example called flop with k9 suited flop comes down 99k turn is 3 river is A end up last of 3, other 2 callers had AA KK,won a few tourneys there but wasnt the same after the yanks got banned,play on party now but the tourneys are to long to many in them,thought i had finally cracked it a while ago playing limit $5/10 was doing well but sadly i sat down at to many bad tables just kept getting caught,back to the $1/2 now,just not agressive enough for nl
