Gaming Club Reload and PlanetLuck Casino

I finished the Gaming Club reload last night, and made a nice $267 profit at the tables, playing NL$100 at the Bad Beat Jackpot tables. A lot of people seem to dislike the play on the Prima networks, but ever since I started playing the BBJ tables after a recommendation from a PSO member, Prima has become one of my most profitable sites. The tables are fairly loose, but not too loose, usually with a %players per flop of around 40%, which from my experience is just about right. Any looser, and you will start to get sucked out on more often, and any tighter, it becomes harder to get paid off. Most of the people playing there tend to be gambler types or calling stations, who seem willing to put their money in with the worst of it. When I'm on Prima, I play almost exclusively on those tables, now, and only play the regular tables when there isn't enough traffic on the jackpot tables. Even during North American evening hours, however, there is usually a couple full NL$100 jackpot tables playing, so traffic is not often a problem. I plan to sign up at the Prima skin, 123Poker, for 60% rakeback at Supreme Rakeback, so that I can play these tables when I'm not clearing any promos or reloads. Anyway, combined with the $50 reload bonus, I finished with a net profit of $317.

This put me within $22 of reaching my year-end goal, so I decided to do the #3 casino on Actyper's Top 10 Casinos list, PlanetLuck Casino. I deposited $100, got an instant $100 bonus, and had to wager $1600 before I could withdraw. This time, however, variance was not on my side, and after playing $5 blackjack hands and clearing the requirements about an hour later, I ended up with a bankroll of $90. I decided to play a little more, to see if I could work it up to at least show a profit, but of course with a negative EV game like blackjack, that probably wasn't such a good idea, and after dropping down to a bankroll of $50, I decided to stop and cut my losses to a net loss of $50. Oh well, you can't win 'em all.

Tomorrow there's a $5000 PSO freeroll on UltimateBet, but I don't think I'll be able to play because of Thanksgiving dinner plans. I'll be there for Sunday night's PSO league tourney #2, though, so hope to see you there, and good luck to everyone!
