DONs will always get a bad image because of the ease to collude for cheaters but still from playing a ton of them I will say their aren't that many dirty fish in the sea.

The biggest problem is of the ones we all suspect to be colluding the network just don't seem to care to get rid of them. No matter what they say the network don't look at this as a top priority. Perhaps they don't have enough resources to spend the time and money on this who knows?

It's just horrible when a guy can constantly open new accounts either on various skins by himself playing on two computers with a vpn service for one, with his buddies, etc. and get away with it.

Cheating/Colluding/Soft playing at small stakes DONs like the $5's and $10's sure must be a tight life.

Winning CEO mentioned in one of his videos that they are working on adding the fifty/fifty format to combat DON cheating. I don't think he mentioned a time frame.

He also mentioned that he could do eight-person DONs easily.

ZERO ACTION

^^^ - I don't have a problem with the format changing but all that stuff says to me is they don't want to even attempt to police the games as they are.

I know this has been said hundreds of times but they need to do what stars did awhile back. Get rid of don's and introduce fifty/50's its pretty simple and easy.

Even pokerstars couldn't police the cheating/collusion in DON's so can't even imagine how much of it takes places on US sites with little to no security or support.

They're 7th and 8th on the SNC for a combined total of ~$300. People are pretty terrible at DONs in general so they're probably up a good amount overall.

theyl be booted from those spots.. a lot of us high buy in sngs guys didn't play over the weekend seemed

I suggest u guys don't reg the Cons.. come join us in the 9mans.. theres plenty

Although I don't play dons or much poker atm (school!) it's still pretty tilting to see him get away with it. I attempted to show some chat support guy all the circumstantial evidence to no avail.

sweet filter bro.

big dogs been sleeping...#1 gna get run down

The two accounts I've listed still are pretty bad playes. Even with that being said, it still hurts players going for a high spot on the leader board, as you will be mass tabling and don't have the time to think how to play back at two players teaming you on the bubble. They two colluders are playing 15s and even seen them do a few 20s lately. This just hurts players EV in the games.

goldeneagles is on the ss leaderboard for profit playing his 9/8 style so they're doing something somewhat right

Yes, he is very nitty, until he raises/ shoves on his teammate and gets walks all day . That is why the colluding sticks out even more!

I have made a lot of profit from DoNs, but I refuse to play any with these two accounts.

I made a post about WastedPotential and Acaibowl in the Don collusion thread a couple weeks ago. I didn't include their names at the time because I didn't realize they were already known colluders. Here were my suspicions about them.

I'm only a micro player but I usually qualify for a min-cash on the leader board. However, I refuse to play a game with these two so it's very frustrating when i'm in the middle of a session and see them registering because then I have to quit. I really hope WPN will take another look at these players.

Would you say its a waste of time playing these dons then if one plans to play higher stkes only with all this?

No money at mid+++ stakes. CountryHo solid.

there is money to be made, u just have to make better decisions than the next guy.

oh and... CHo touches me while I play

play the 9mans with us

Is there a skype group I can join to improve?

I played mid stakes on stars without an issue so i would figure the games here aren't that bad then right? Again i dont mind playing midstakes as long as theres no cheaters involved. Stars would have banned any cheaters a long time ago so is there a reason nothing is done about these players then? Curious if anyone plays both stars and wpn sngs.

the 9mans it would be tough for guys to collude

traffic is really pickin up ... the games are good.. a few regs a game

Cyal8rloser, GoldenEagles, Acaibowl, ImaHustlaBaby, WastedPotential, and whatever other names the person(s) have aren't very great but when both get to the bubble and hte guy with less chips goes all in on his friend it's just one less player to get through which is significant on the bubble knowing he is never calling.

They aren't really that great like you said but this edge is tremendous.

Help me get the plo8 sngs going guys I have tried to get the $5-$10 plo8 DONs and STTs going this week. -FormerStarsPro is my BCP/SNG acc GLA cya there maybe

The Hydra with all those names will regularly shove in spots where you'd have to be a genius or an idiot to shove, and I'm not leaning toward genius.

It really tilts me that there are two 100/200 levels in the regular 9-man's. These would flow much better if the first of these (no ante) was eliminated.

I'd like it better with 100/200 and then 125/250 25 ante.

So confused by ODs right now.... hahaha
