who knows if they are even thinking about changing anything, they probably arent but i am very interested in PLO changes and am wondering how other PLO players feel about the current situation?

feel free to discuss NLHE and PLO in here but remember they are different games.

not saying that the current system is the best, but i don't have serious problems with that

maybe 100-250bb tables --> 80-200bb (hoping for more actions)

Get rid of 20-50 please.

who are they?

For NLHE, 20-50, 95-100, 100-250 tables, everyone's happy.

no cap tables, nlhe keep as is, plo revert back to old tables 20-100/50-100, stars loves shortstackers too much for me to ask for anything better

these tables run so infrequently compared to the other table structures it's not really worth mentioning them

i think they should separate the 20-50 table. just give a table to short stackers of only 20BB buy in and then give a just only 50bb buy in table, instead of having so much of a different stack than everybody at the table. so dumb when two people double up on a 20-50 bb table to 100bb and you have 3 people with 15-20bb and another person at 40bb. its all about effective bb, and for the most part the efective bb at the 20-50 tables is 20bb, its dumb.

are you serious there already is a 40bb min buyin table dude and once you get around 40-50 bb and higher the the difference in stack sizes is pretty irrelevant, i would also say as someone who buys in for 50bb at the 20-50 tables that there is no way i want them changed to cap tables or have the amount of big blinds you can buy in for lowered

nlhe - remove 50bb tables. It seriously affects the amount of fish sitting at the 100bb tables and me no likey

nou

the fish do seem to flock to the 20-50bb tables in PLO so that really sucks.

my PLO 2 cents:

20bb cap tables
35-100bb tables
100-250 ante tables

This.

WTF are we talking about ITT?

They're going to change everything in 2011

world ends in 2012 so it doesn't matter anyway

Them

the title of thread is a little misleading. I figured the changes were already announced.

I think the best possible scenario would be to have 30-100, 20BB CAP, and 100-250 ante tables. This way everyone gets to play with similar stack sizes as everyone else.

If your goal is similar starting stack sizes, 30-100 seems like a terrible suggestion.

Other people suggested this as well. Are you serious people, it will never happen. The sites know very well ssers would stop playing, as they can't be profitable playing their shove/fold game against other 20BB stacks.

Of course they won't be kicking away ss'ers rake. The only was I see this happening is some sort of massive reg boycott, the odds of which are about the same as real deal poker being a top 10 site in the next 1,000 years.

This is completely false, as most (all?) 20bb players don't seek out deeper stacks at their tables. However, a CAP game would greatly diminished the traffic at the 20-50bb playing level, as no one wants to sit down at a non-standard table.

sorry

LOL

Lol nut-pedling nits ITT, haha guys you are soo funny, you moan and whine and cry and cry some moar. At this moment in time just accept reality...

FISH LIKE 20-50BB TABLES. They like shoving light, the like the thrill of an All IN pf with marginal hands and the consequent suck out. Also STARS LOVES these tables. There is much more action, most pots get fully raked, not like w/100bb poker that they get capped. There is no 3bet light 4bet fold and all that crap you guys try to pull off xD

Just accept it, if you want to nut peddle go to full tilt.... oh wait.... YEAH YOU ARE NITS SO FULL TILT WON'T CUT IT EITHER


AHHAHAHAHAHHAAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAAHHHAH

ty for your input Ohnoes! it was well thought out and made a lot of sense.

BTW ITT we are not trying to remove SSers and mainly this is for PLO. does anybody have a table buyin structure?

As an occasional Hold'em player and regular Omaha player I'd be happy with 30BB - 100BB standard tables and 50BB minimum for a slightly deeper game. But then I'm more easily pleased than some people

these 100-250bb are some of the juiciest games on PS. sure, you can't 24 table them but there are regularly 6-12 tables running at 50nl at least. I certainly want to see them stick around
