@todd3311 - you are not alone... And I've noticed one thing: as longer you play as more bad-beats you get... hate this
BTW: I've just cleared the day 8-th, playing RUSH as usual, and +$2,20 into my balance for today... Only 1 day remaining for $25 Take2 Promo to be cleared...!

as I cleraed that day aswell I can tell you one fact: I was drunk today aswelll. I lost 2 $ in two drunken days but clerade both of them. Of course it isn´t +ev to play drunk. I wouldnt recommend that. but I needed to play as I wanted to get those 25$. And for that I needed to take the risk and luckily it went good. GL
------------ hmm, my Promotion page is down... So how I know I made the day or not? Dont have much time today and don´t wanna play (and Rush Poker I don´t wanna play anyway)

It´s no guarantee, but you can check your points on your Cashir pop-up, and go from there. I had to do that today, because the promotion pages are still doan, probably because of all the trouble at FT.
I´´ll play some more Rush later today, just to make sure I have double the points, don´t know if they count it 1 to 1 with this promo. Had the impression they didn´t exactly during the week.

I've made today over than 5 points, playing RUSH (btw: they don't count to Take2 these Happy Hours double points). But tried to check it out and don't know what's going on with the fckn FTP now...

I made my 9th day today but it was my toughest day of all. I had QQ and AA and both times a calling donk hit his straight, one time on the turn and the other time on the river

I made my last points yesterday. Got 55 (just as the other day), and hit my set on the flop (just as the other day). Flop is 5JJ, two clubs. Now I'm hoping for a club on the turn, and that my opponent gets a flush. The club of 8:s! Great card!
We start betting, and end up all in. I'm starting to get nervous that he has some sort of J with a kicker that gives him a better full house.
He has got 88... He oversetted me on the turn (just as the other day)! When I thought that was a good card for me. (just as the other day)
What the f*ck are the odds, getting the the same set on the flop, getting pretty much the card you are hoping for on the turn, and being oversetted by it?!?! Two days in a row playing quite a few hands??
It probably can't be calculated, but I can tell you one thing. It sure sucks!!

Finished the take 2 last night But i have to say i had hard time getting the freaking points since most of the tables in micro limits were empty. for the first time since i joined FT there wasnt any playing micro omaha h/l
Completed my Take 2 promo yesterday. Unlike the previous ones, this one didn't go well for me. Had two disastrous sessions which spoiled the overall statistic for the promo. My results are below.
I've cleared take 2 at nl10 rush poker and was really wondering about some idiots there lol... there was an donk who made a preflop push with k-6s (he had nearly a full stack) and another hero called a 3bet with a-qoff and couldn't find the fold button thanks to these guys i've won two and a half buy ins there so 50 dollar in total with this promo
now i will go back to ipoker...looks like that even many europeans are leaving ftp and are returning to the european networks

So guys, the Promo is over. I hope this little reminder hoped few peoples to save 5 or maybe 25$.
For me this all went really good.
I mean at the beginning of this month I didn´t had a single cent on my account. But after a BRM Freeroll and winning 8$ My BR went up to 53$ and there are 25$ to add by the promo. This is nice little amount of money.
So I am pretty confident though around 74$ in about 2 and a half week out of nothing is quite okay
