Pokerstars Nick,
In this
thread about so called "game creators" you confirm that
Quote:
there is nothing wrong with playing heads-up at a table that supports more than 2 players, and leaving when the table fills - so long as you pay your fair share of blinds in the process.
If I should follow the game creators logic there would be no tables running at all if they were banned. It is of course the recreational player whos the game creator.
Is it wrong if these "game creators" refuse game creating with the vast majority sitting in as the second player?
If this isnt acceptable, what will you do about it?
Quote:
a situation can sometimes arise when a new table is starting 3-handed where you are dealt in to the hand as the Button. It is never acceptable to raise in this situation if your intention is to sit out the next Big Blind.
This is just... Its alright to fold or call? Lately I've seen pro grimmers from seat 1 (always gets button) timing out with a non-raising hand if game starts 3handed in hopes of 4th & 5th player joining in the meantime.
Alternatively, it would look like the grimmer is afk and of course sitting out when about to post big blind.

we do have a team that combats blind abuse, and we do have automated tools to detect blind abuse to assist this team.
Im guessing that to any fair playing LHE ring game reg this is just an incredibly tilting read. If the above statement is true, this is a very incompetent team and/or software. Its more or less the same who has been around for years.
I have myself reported at least 20 crystal clear violations by everyday anglers/grimmers/table campers/waitlist spammers, only to see them the next day doing the exactly same thing over and over. I have been in touch with quite a few regs who are all stating the same: "We've reported,
Stars is doing nothing". To give an example ITT I just spent
two minutes browsing the lobby enabling me to grab three hands with a grimming legend (edited HHs, interesting parts highlighted):
#1
Table 'Neckar II' 6-max
Seat #1 is the button
Seat 1:
Grimming legend ($400 in chips)
Seat 2:
Weak player ($400 in chips)
Seat 3: Regular ($400 in chips)
Weak player: posts small blind $5
Regular: posts big blind $10
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Grimming legend: raises $10 to $20
Weak player: calls $15
Regular: calls $10
*** SHOW DOWN ***
Grimming legend collected $158 from pot
#2 - another reg joins
Table 'Neckar II' 6-max Seat #2 is the button
Seat 1: Grimming legend ($488 in chips)
Seat 2: Weak player ($330 in chips)
Seat 3: Reg #1 ($380 in chips)
Seat 4: Reg #2 ($200 in chips)
Reg #1: posts small blind $5
Reg #2: posts big blind $10
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Grimming legend: raises $10 to $20
Weak player: calls $20
Reg #1: raises $10 to $30
Reg #2: folds
Grimming legend: calls $10
Weak player: calls $10
*** SHOW DOWN ***
Weak player collected $84 from pot
#3 -
Grimming legend has played 2 hands without posting:
Table 'Neckar II' 6-max Seat #3 is the button
Seat 2: Weak player ($354 in chips)
Seat 3: Reg #1 ($340 in chips)
Seat 4: Reg #2 ($200 in chips)
Reg #2: posts small blind $5
Grimming legend: is sitting out
Weak player: posts big blind $10
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Reg #1: folds
Grimming legend leaves the table
What he does every single day is outright stealing. Quoting the above thread as I couldn't agree more
