Pretty please ACR? I've been hoping 'short' tables would be dropped for a long time now....but I guess I won't hold my breath. It's too bad, because they take away the player pool for 100bb tables.

oh god yes. As someone who just started out at micro stakes, it's incredibly annoying to fairly often only have 1 6max reg table going and 4 short tables

i've tried to start my own tables but it rarely seems to work.

they would get rid of 100bb tables before they got rid of 50bb tables

That would be terrible if poker sites started doing that. But you're right in the fact that 50bb are better for the site because of increased rake per dollar on the tables....worse for the players.

IDK. I think offering short and full tables is kind of standard for the online poker industry.

All I play is PLO and I love the short tables when I'm taking shots. Although I do find them incredibly annoying at my regular stakes

meh, i dont mind it. The fish like them and most regs dont adjust properly for 50bb. It is a pretty awkward stack size. I wish PT4 separated the 50bb and 100bb tables so I could see the difference in winrate
