~400 hands, +$24.58
So I've moved about 60% of my bankroll over to Cake Poker. After spending an hour there, my feelings on this decision are mixed. The players there are terrible. I saw lots of people stacking off with TPWK, middle pair, and even gutshots. These tables are even softer than AP. The bonus there is relatively easy to clear as well. I don't know if I'm going to stick around to clear it, because there are some things I don't like about this site, but this place looks like an ATM at first glance.
Okay, so what I don't like about Cake: I really hate the interface. I can't resize the tables, which is a huge bummer. I played 5 tables today with alot of overlap. Perhaps I could squeeze in one more, but that's about it. There are also bet 1/2 pot and bet full pot buttons. Surprisingly, I didn't see many people making use of those functions, but I know that it can be a major drawback when the fish inadvertently make better decisions. Poker Tracker is not supported by Cake, which is why I have to estimate how many hands I've played (~400). Every table has 10 seats, even 6-max tables, so it can be difficult to see which games are drying up when multi-tabling. Cake is a pretty small site without much traffic, but I managed to play 5 tables of 6-max with VPIPs over 50%, so perhaps this won't be much of an issue at my stake.
I still have another $300 floating around, pending my AP withdrawal. I can only pray that the money finds it's way back to my ePass account. If/when it does, I'll have to decide what to do with it. Perhaps I can find a more stable room with a small bonus. For now, I think the plan is to build the roll up to $1,000 and move it all to Bodog. The 10% Bonus should be a cinch to clear and I hear it's one of the fishiest rooms around. I hear people say that bonus whoring is more profitable at higher stakes, and that making money at the micros is easy enough, but I would argue that a huge chunk of my roll is comprised of cleared bonuses. I'm going to take advantage of them while the going's good.
Bankroll: $679.60
