Oh god please no.

Times are desperate as it is, the fish should be playing 6-max+ not HU.

Going broke slower is better and obviously if 2 pros decided to play HU , no one would interupt them at the 6-max tables as it is (except fish).

There is barely any if any fish that wont play 6-max (or try to start HU 6-max) that will come back on the site just to play HU on HU tables.

I might be willing to participate, but it's difficult when your Stars-Acc is frozen for no apparent reason and Stars is ignoring your e-mails.

If the fish go broke faster it's just sooner that they *might* reload IMO

just a selfish post. I actually agree with you guys, but I'd like to see the fish having more options


yes, I'm a donkey at 6m

So are these promotional games gonna happen so I can rail?

As soon as someone is willing to play, yes. Unfortunately, it seems that there are not many who are willing to take on this challenge at the moment.

seems like a great illustration of hslhe (and what happened to it) as a whole

So if i get this right , a lot of hslhe players Complain there isnt much game avaliable with fish and when they have the chance to promote lhe games to the public ( like in nl) , they dont want to participate to show to weaker lower stakes players how fun limit hold em can be .

No wonder the games are dying , im pretty happy to be in the mood to try to learn other games...

I'll likely do this but not til late Aug or Sept.

That sounds good. PM me with details, and I can make preparations.

I'm semi-grunching (read the thread a week ago but forget the content), but what happened is that almost no players have any balls and are slaves to EV.

fyp

so no one should invest some time and money in what is slighhhtly -ev or marginally +ev endeavor in an effort to promote the game and bring more fish into the arena?

why not divvy out the buyin amongst the regs who are scared so that you all take a slight loss/win and have a part in marketing the game

It's kind of sad that so many people were crying out for this, Pokerstars took action and initiative but then no one can follow through with it.

Respect that they are trying to do somethingh about.

Seems like terrible timing unfortuantly. 1 year ago id be all over this. Firmly convinced im getting out of poker for good very soon and have a minimum threshold in the bank I don't want to go under when I retire.

High stakes 100/200+ HU against a player as good or better than me isn't the most appealing thing right now, nor is sacrificing short term EV for long term preservation of the game.

Im sure a lot of other people have their reasons for not singing up now too.

also that ruabot vs daniel match really didnt promote HULHE much at all, very very doubtful a jllama vs kpr match is gonna bring any new players to HULHE
