Bye bye Everest-Poker

Yes, I quit Everest. And I feel a bit sad for leaving the most fishy side on the internet. But I wanted to help my bankroll a bit, by getting a nice bonus.
So I decided to deposit at Absolute Poker. There you get a 100% first deposit bonus up to $500. That sounded too good. So I signed up there.

Absolute Poker has a great layout. I love their playing cards. They look so real. Not like these crap-looking Everest-cards. And AP has convertable Hand Histories, yeah!!!! The times to convert the Everest hands by myself are over. And AP has a good VIP-programm and a nice shop for stuff like T-Shirts and so on...But the best on AP is, that you can Buy-In for 200BB and the minimum Buy-In is 40BB. That means i.e. playing NL $0.25/$0.50, you must at least buy in for $20 but you can buy in for a total $100. That's cool. I hated those shorties on Everest, where they bought in for $5 (10BB) at NL$50.

All in all I am quite happy with AP, only the SnG-section sucks. They increase the blinds every 10 hands and the structure sucks as well. But I am mainly playing Cash-Games, so I don't care that much about this.

My first to days were pretty tough but I somehow managed to make a plus of almost $50.
(including -$100 playing 4 tables $1/$2 LHE and +$200 playing 2 tables NL$100). So all in all it was a very swingy start.

Summary: AP is tougher than Everest by far, but it's beatable as well.
