Official FTP husng "changes requested" thread - Page 11 - Heads Up SNG and Spin and Gos -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I think it'll be fine. For everyone except those who play high stakes, this is better than the previous. Fish don't care THAT much about the reduced rake, the games are actually beatable for a small clip, and there will still be plenty of fish who want to play turbos and reg speeds.

yeah it was a really bad idea to push FTP into this.
and of course they picked it and ignored the lowering of rake for HUSNGs which i was not even aware before being double or more of cash games.

i am pretty sure and hope that FTP and others will find out too that slower structures and every development in direction of a skilled game rather than a casino will be the only way to online poker to survive for long and also be profitable for the online poker platforms. but as they have made already thousands of millions of dollars, they will probably not care

I'm going with Spamz and the rest of the high stakes guys that blocked Skates article with their point that much of their edge comes from 15-30bb poker.

I'm not being sarcastic either, I concede they had great points, and they should be ranging from marginally happy to ecstatic over these changes.

If the two are related then wouldn't you be sacrificing money yourself to keep more players around with money to lose?

I'm not saying these are good or bad, I'm just trying to look at what people are saying and find some strong evidence one way or another.

Why exactly are these bad for the husng economy?

Why exactly are you and other regulars going to crush these?
