Absolute Comes Through

Filed in archive Internet Poker on February 9, 2007

Absolute poker was one of the first poker rooms I began to play at nearly two years ago. Its endless deposit bonuses and soft low limit games were a bright spot as I played at several rooms with negative results. The bonuses kept the bankroll moving in a positive direction despite my break-even play at the tables.

After learning more about the game and deciding to move to PokerStars and FullTilt for their Omaha eight or better game selections I stopped playing at Absolute for awhile. With the recent liquidity of poker funds issue due to Neteller's demise, the selection of games has gone for the worst. But, luckily the Absolute customer service is there to prove me wrong as listed in a previous article here.

Thanks to their customer service rep alexandra for taking the time and figuring out what happened to the funds forwarded to me by PokerSourceOnline, I will able to start my mini bankroll challenge this weekend. I will start by playing $.50/$1 limit Omaha eight or better and with each successful (crossing my fingers) double up we will attempt to build a viable bankroll to compete at higher levels.

As a side note for Absolute Poker they are offering a Valentine's Day promotion for those players who don't wish to move away from their ten tabling to buy a gift for their loved ones. For 26,000 AR points four dozen roses will be shipped in your general direction. Not a bad deal for playing a little poker online.

Beginning Bankroll: $61.40
