I'm against getting rid of 40bbrs and I think it's ridiculous that stars has a new definition of ratholing. getting rid of them will lower my entertainment ev

yep its hilarious. if i routinely had 40% of my tables being 40bbrs and I did not want to play with them I would go start deep ante games. What do the hysteric FR nits do though? whine to Stars. f clowns

Getting to play with various stack sizes makes poker more enjoyable for me.

NLHE players have been deprived of playing NLHE for years now so gimme a break plz.
WTF is this. Since when is NLHE with 40bb effective stacks no longer considered NLHE. Some of the dribble you clowns posts is unbelievable. If you have a problem playing at a table with 7 short stackers get off the table..............................
I do not understand how you can come to the forum and whine about 7 40bbrs being at your table. Just get up. Go start a deep ante game. Problem solved.
DoubleD making some really good points would have been nice to see him at the meetings instead of natis who posted this nonsense.

Therefore i think the best way to go about this is making 3 table types, 20bb cap, 40bb cap and 75bb-200bb tables and name the last one the "normal" table (for plo just 40bb cap and 75bb-200bb 'normal' ones, no need for 20bb plo raketrap). This solves the ratholing problem in a way easier way. Offcourse it has nagatives too, but i feel like its better then the complicated system.
This would piss off the RPs. Now we all know u don't care about that. Whining about a slight decrease in the time to act when the number one complaint from RPs is the games are too slow. incredibly short-sighted
Please don't have him go to a players meeting Stars.
Can we stop with the comparing of bb/100s in rake between plo and nlhe. Stars has posted they look at rake per hour, so PLO getting less hands/hr naturally should have a higher bb/100 rake. Why this gets ignored I have no idea.
PLO regs want lower rake @ SSPLO for a more sustainable long-term economy. ok raise it at plo5k+ (should be done anyway). e-z game do it up Stars.
Stars you should absolutely raise the rake when games are 6 handed at plo10k+. if you want to tell me Stars raking $5 (.0125bb) out of 100k pots @ plo40k is anything but a travesty while they rake $2(8bb) out of 50 pots @ plo25, i won't even get started.
Raise the rake at the nosebleeds wen 6 handed!
