For them? Ya, probably, great way to make even more money from underrolled fish. For regs? Horrible.

More rake is exactly what poker needs.

Seems like a no brainer.

Perfect RNG (harhar) + infinite sample (even under the assumption that only regs would buy this) + percentage x.x% from every major pot = Profit.

Then again, InsuredPlay disappeared pretty quickly. I guess I must be missing something?

I think people would buy it makes me feel very sad to think I would be playing against people who have it. Changes the dynamic too much.

They should offer it just so we can see the reaction of players here saying it is another cash grab from Amaya.

I don't understand why people are hostile to this idea. If you don't want to buy insurance, fine, don't but it - but why would you care if others buy it?

Actually Exactly how I fell if You don't want it don't opt in, however if You do then pay the premium and move on . . . . .Why some players think it's bad makes no sense because You are not forced to buy it in the 1st Place

Correct, it changes the dynamics of the game. Also, losing players will lose money faster, and that money doesn't stay with the players, it stays with Pokerstars.
