I would say that constitutes at least half of all fish.

All of these greedy regs are going to go where the action is. The sites need to allow "clear and fair" options. If shortstacking ratholers want their own tables then what is the problem? How about tables for everyone?


All of the fullstacking non ratholing regs can have whatever tables they want added but there is no reason to remove the original 20 BB 30 minute tables imo. We will then see what happens on an even playing field. The regs that are arguing for the changes are basically saying make the tables how I want it because it suits my game better. They are not worried about anything but that.

So ya make all the additions you want but imo they need to keep what they already have as well. Then we will see where all the action ends up. No I am not a shortstacker nor ratholer. Nor do I use a HUD but you don't see me lobbying for the removal of those...

But at the same time they should not remove any of the existing tables either. Then it will be up to the individual to play what game suits them. I mean jesus they already made the 50 BB tables. Sorry for you that the opponents you want to play would rather sit at a 20 BB table. I have a hard time feeling bad for an online cash game pro tbh. I feel like the people who are really lobbying for all these changes are mostly winning players anyway and feel like they could be making more if things were changed in their favor.

Again I reiterate. Make all the additions you want but do not remove the original tables and let the people choose what they want to play.

You know damn well the all of these regs are going to still bumhunt and if that involves them going to a 20 BB table to do it they will. They are only thinking of themselves here and are trying to corner the market of fish in cash games in online poker.

They are threatening to leave pokerstars if they don't tailor the table structures to just what they think is best for them. I doubt Stars goes broke(lol) if they follow through on the threats(which I doubt they would anyway.)

Would you prefer to play a 60bb fish at 5/10 or a 100bb fish at 3/6?
