I dont know what about my previous post implied "poker terms". I feel like what I'm arguing makes perfect sense, but I dont blame people for wanting to still be optimistic.
Obv it wasnt +ev for GBT or FTP would be up and running right now or in the near future. Seems all those "signs of life" from FTP recently were all just a massive level, so why should this ridiculous claim that stars is buying FTP be any different?
GBT not able to revive FTP tells me that its not profitable to do so for anyone, so why would someone with an already massive advantage on the world market need to step in? Seems there is very little worry that their previous competitor will be making any sort of comeback.
It makes far more sense for someone (888, party, stars, etc) to just buy the rights to the software which is obviously far cheaper than paying players back.
