Now adding Ad hominems to the list of logical fallacies on display.
When the 100s cartel formed (something which is only ever going to hurt me) I was one of the people agreeing with it both here (in this thread even) and on skype, of course though it is only logical that I was blinkered by self interest then as well
I'm not even sure what your point is.
In one of my previous posts I asked a very simple question at the $60 cartel leaders. As you are one of them, I will ask it again and this time I would like an answer from you:
I have one very simple question for the leaders of the $60 cartel: Why does a club, supposedly based on merit, even accept someone as a member who is a losing player? Why are so many of your members $30 regs who were + still are losing at the 60s+? (I'm not going to name names here because it's not in my interest to do so).
And just to make it personal. If I look up your stats on Poker Optimizer, in the last 6 months you played 15,444 games. Your average buy in is $41. 2/3 of the games were at the $30 level. You are a winning player at the $30s but you are
losing at the $60s + ... down $2k.
Like so many of the other members in your group, this makes you a
$30 reg who
recently tried to move up to the $60s but so far has failed to establish himself there as a winning player.
How on earth does this qualify you to be a member of the $60 cartel, if it is supposed to be based on merit, let alone an organiser of the cartel.
You are not a $60 reg, for that you would have had to have played that level for much longer and have shown a winning history. It's a joke that u think you have the right to make the rules, as to who has a right to get a lobby at the 60s.
Your Pokeroptimizer profile is very typical of the members of your group. I've played against a lot of $30 regs who are not beating the $60s. Yet, somehow they feel entitled to take over the lobbies and get to play all the fish. It's absurd and it's wrong.
You and the other $30 regs, trying to move up at the $60s, should be at the receiving end of this treatment from the good regs at the $60s who have been playing that level for a long time and are long time winners at the level. But they are too busy making money, playing the fish, as they have been given a free pass by your cartel, as obviously most of your cartel members would get destroyed in the long run if they had to take them on.
