Anyone doing any double VPP operations this week?

[Outlaw]

In case you haven't heard, Stars is giving double vpps for all SNGs (no heads up) and cash games until July 6th. Is this a good time to take shots or should someone stay at their current level?

I am at 25NL, very close to being rolled for 50NL.. I was thinking of playing a lot of extra hours this week to take advantage of the double rakeback and to make a push towards nova.

Anyone got any ideas?

You could rathole the $5/$10 tables.

I am not sure what it means to "rathole" but it sounds dirty lol

It's a less than endearing term for short stacking.

Almost but not quite.

To rathole is to take money off a table - simple as that. It is commonly associated with shortstacking, or to be more specific if you are only willing to play with a given stack size. You can leave a table and rejoin the same table with a stack of your preferred size which is the epitome of ratholing - but just leaving a table when your stack is too big for what you feel comfortable with is also ratholing.

It is a derogatory term, usually used by people who want to take your moneyz and who wants you to think that leaving before you've lost your money to them is somehow a bad thing. There's really nothing wrong with choosing to limit your exposure in any game that you have decided to play.
