ANd im comfortable in saying that not becausei think im so good, but because they suck lol. alot of guys who are actually pretty good do bumhunt because they dont like gutwrenching variance. And alot of guys who do suck and dont bumhunt are probably clueless about variance because if they knew what they were in for with their ****ty winrate they would probably shoot themselves.

im sure lots of regs have edge on me, and they still don't play w/ me. thats make me very very pissed.

all i want is play heads up. i don't care if other guy is better than me, sometimes all i want is play 3-4tables HUPLO. and its impossible to play. i know mrw plays, tracyer, syous plays, but they never are sitting on tables, because they know hu is dead . or if one of them is sitting, after sitting on 25tables, i got tired and just think ''fml... lets play 6max''.

thats why someithng need to be done.

i agree koth wouldn't be very good, but at least its better than nowadays. w/ koth, the best 5/10 reg would be forced to play 2/4 and 3/6, because 5/10 tables would be w/ the 10/20 and 25/50 best regs. whatever, at least on this scenario hu tables would have action.

HU field can't survive w/ 2/4 players waiting on the 25/50 and 10/20 tables like today. and with 0.25/0.50 players opennning 0.25/0.50 up to 2/4.. when everyone does this, we have a huge problem, like nowadays.

HU field is small, we need cut some players to have more action. i don't care if i will be forced to play 2/4, at least id have fun playing some hu.

[tracyer]

hey, urubu,how is your hu challenge. do u still wanna play it? i am up to play against u 2-4 on 4 tables. for even 10k huhands but not in the same time.
@mrw. i play only stars,so i cant play any **** euros where i tilt because of the software. i would also take 2-4 for 4 tables, 3 is also ok.

[urubu111]

tracyer, i lose all my online roll at flips, got tilted and self-ban 2months from pokerstars. so after this dumb move my ''challenge'' (should be a friendly match w side bet. don't want label as a challenge or claiming that i think im better or anything like that.i like to call it as friendy match w side bet) is on stand by. i need be able to play ps again and rebuild the roll.

Just make it so you could only leave 10 tables per hour, including forced departures due to sitting out. That's plenty even for mega tablers and way too little for bumhunters.

[krmont22]

I still think they should just lock you in to 20 hands if you are sat with.

I cannot take seriously beyond 5-10 playmoney. But I have no roll for that.

[RunItUp]

i'm not even a winning player or reg at hu plo (or even a stars reg) and the majority of people sit out vs me, no matter what amount of money i sit with, it's ridiculous, it baffles me as to who these people are even waiting for???

Main problem with getting rid of HU tables is a lot of the bumhunters will open sit 6max tables and still make the lobby really cluttered and unappealing for recreational players.

I wish stars could come up with some type of decent adaptation of zoom for HU. I havent given it a lot of thought but something along the lines of a zoom like player pool except u play 20 hands or something before the table switches and theres a check box for both players if they want to keep the match going.. maybe another check box to add another table. Seems like it could work. You get rid of the regular HU tables and just have HU zoom. If you sit out before the 20 hands or done u cant sit down again for 10 min or somethin.

Some bumhunters are already abusing this today.
Why is Stars even allowing people like -E..FP-, ret..ej323 and the costarican guys to sit at 6max table when their only intention is to HU-bumhunt at those tables. They are bringing the "cluttered HU lobby" to 6max tables, stars should restrict those accounts to only being able to start HU-tables, since that is their only intention anyway

Started to play Stars PLO200zoom and i saw one sick stack:

[Roy]

yeah he's been zooming a tonne lately and has consistently run up 1000BB + stacks. would love to see a graph of his zoom hands

[antchev]

Not even close to sick zoom-wise. 2000BB stacks are frequently seen even at normal PLO tables and it's everyday occurance at the deep ones. My perception of sick zoom stack is in the range of 5000BB.

Played a lot of hands in zoom with him and think he's a very good player, didn't he used to play high stakes?
