They need to offer more stakes. People would play a $3, $1, and .50c SNG2.0 all day. They should also list how many are running, and how many people currently registered. Would improve the pool greatly.

Me: "Any chance of changing the "average wait" in the SnG 2.0 tab to "X of 9 players"?"

WPN_REP2: "This is already in the dev queue."

Changing the UI in this spot is like a .5-1.5 day, 1-2 person project, max.

This all the way. if not $1 then at least $2 ones.

Anyone know the player blooodz10?

I was playing a $5 game and he made a silly call on the bubble, so I shoved something like T4o to force his fold and steal the equity (he ended up bubbling BTW).

He instantly looked up my SharkScope graph, said it was a stupid play, started berating me, and calling me a losing player (I'm not, my graph is < 400 games, half of which is doomsday switched, and the vast majority of my games aren't tracked).

So I looked up his SN. Says he's a pro player and has thousands in winnings, but loses his mind over a $5 game in which I correctly exploited his call.

Very pathetic guy. Like, exceptionally pathetic.

The issue isn't offering more stakes. The issue is getting the 10s+ to run. The payout structure needs to be fixed. Not every green card needs to add a place being paid. Getting your buyin back or even less in some cases is a joke. Just throw that money onto 1st or 2nd place.

Edit/cliffs:

Posted something about an odd player. Dug in more. Found more extremely odd behavior. Potentially with multiple players. Not chip dumping or or cheating. Just odd stuff. Maybe testing something, maybe not.

Need more time. It's too late at night for this.

So as not to leave anyone who cares (which is not many who play these games) hanging, here's the player I spotted. More recently they reg and then blind out. They have 4 screenames of same variation. One time I spotted same player at same table. When they do play hands, they go all-in with garbage, first hand (sometimes limping, then calling stack off).

Spotted at least 1 other player connected, also going all-in/calling with garbage.



I'll leave it at that for right now. In a lot of ways I don't feel good about putting this out there because they are dead money, but my gut says this is something more. Maybe an effort to run development tests, but maybe I'm paranoid.

I found three other players who are directly connected with the same odd behavior. Play-wise, none of it's malicious. Even if they win an all-in for 3,000 chips, they blind out.

All accounts started playing (although sporadically, every few weeks) on day hands started being written to the hard drive (9/28). So some possible scenarios, but not limited to: 1) HUD developer running tests, 2) WPN running tests, 3) Someone developing bot/collecting data/screen grabbing.

I don't why they would need 7 accounts, multiple games of doing the same action, and over the span of 2 months. Very hackish and raw. I'm convinced however, they're testing something. Bad intentions or not? No idea.

Again, I'm walking a thin line here of being ridiculous by pointing out dead money and probably should have kept it to myself, but it's weird/intriguing.

did anybody hit the big jackpot yet? with 3 gold and rest green?

So yes these are testing accounts in regards to our new software being built.

you will see it from time to time but there is no bad intentions here and its dead money as you said for the players

Nice!

That's ultimately what I settled on and why I didn't go any further.

It just kind of blew my mind at first because I never saw anything like it.

But thanks for being upfront.

Nice thanks!

Funny story:

Last month I had a game with one of these "players". The first card was red. So 2 places paid. The player is UTG and I'm MP with AQs. The player goes all in, which is always any two cards, so I call. The player turned over AA.

Crazy!

Anyway you guys could update the software so that pressing "Enter" when chatting doesn't force a certain bet in the Spins and 2.0s?

Thanks.

Do 2.0s earn rakeback?
