Was probably some merge undercover employee taking it down and funneling the money back into merge.

Weird, I have to agree he certainly doesn't seem that great.

Edit: Oops, was responding to the last post on page 1 about highgrindtime.

Thanks guys. As his backer, you won't have to worry about him playing at the SH tables with you for a while.

sorry if this is dumb but what do star ratings by a player name mean?

haha, nice1 @ peterpjames

I'm not sure but these stars don't mean anything now because merge changed vip levels and vip rewarding system..

I found only this on official carbon page..

Quote:

"Also in our player boxes are stars, which are rewards for regular play. So the more you play, the more stars you get, so when you sit down at a table, everyone knows they need to show you some respect."

No worries I was obv tilted when I posted. It would be nice if this thread got more interesting though. As of now, it's a "regs thread" but no one really talks about any regs, no reg on reg smack talk, etc. Guess we need Ivan back here telling us how much we all suck.

Games have gone back to playing like a FR game since the BBJ busted.

Don't think I ever remember seeing games this tight lol. Avg Plrs/flop is like 10%

I don't really understand the second half of your post, but I'll happily 4 table highgrindtime at 200nl HU...just say when.

And can some guys besides darwinbarney, steviedevlin, and ooga70 help me start games, barely any 200nl games even going usually since BBJ hit.
