As you are aware the full ring NLHE games on your site are full of shortstackers. These are players who sit on many tables at once and grind out a mathamatical advantage by usuing their 20bb stack to make decisions difficult for other deep stacked players who cannot play other deep stacks optimally when there is a short in the hand or even left to act.
There are many instances where I am not playing on the site because of this issue. If it was an occasionall inconvenice that would be tolerable, but as you know many if not most of the full ring tables have two to three or more "professional shorstackers" on them. I am aware of the fact that there are deep tables, the problem with that is that I often find competant regs on those tables, there are few bad or recreational type players on these tables.
I realize that short stackes are playing within the rules, and Im unsure what the solution is, but I urge Full Tilt to take some action to make the full ring games more playable. I know many who have already voted with their feet, as they say, and simply left the site for other sites. Another issue is that these players leave the table immediately after doubling up, making for constant changes to the table composition and a generally less enjoyable experience.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. """"""
so heres some correspondence, if you agree and care to help change the situtation, write away cats. maybe something will change if they get enough feedback. Its going to have to be a concerted effort by regulars though, because as you know shorts pay and generate alot of rake given the way they play.
