Doesn't surprise me though considering the way things have been going in this thread over the last few months.

Did it lose the "official" tag or is it just that we dont get a "new schedule april!!" anymore?

In other words, Luke will now only visit / post something in this thread IF and WHEN he feels like it from now on in and is no longer interested in what we have to say or in discussing anything.

It has now been turned into a DICTATORSHIP thread and Luke is the Dictator.

2007 to 2013 I had alot of fun playing MTTs on stars. Biggest fields, biggest payouts. I was generally always excited to play a few tourneys. In the past 1-2 years, the atmosphere on stars has become very fast-paced, robotic and monotonous. It just feels stale to me.

Earlier this year, I tried playing on Bovada for the first time. I put $50 on the site and played on their anonymous tables. It was a much more fun and relaxed experience. At first I was concerned about game security, but when I thought about it more and more, there is probably just as much, if not more, collusion going on on Pokerstars

I really think you guys should test run a 10-20$ tourney on Sunday with fully anonymous tables, if not just make all spins or sngs anonymous before converting the whole site.

Anonymous tables;

make it comfortable for players like me who don't have to worry about some pro having a read on me from a bad play I made last week. It puts my mind at ease knowing everyday is a fresh start.

Huge reduction in data mining

Levels the playing field a bit-- makes HUDs less meaningful, if not useless

It opens up the action -- I will play a bigger buyin tournament on Bovada, compared to stars, for the reasons mentioned above. I feel like I have a better chance against the pros

Some people wont like anonymous tables, but then again, not too many people like the changes going on right now. You can start with just 1 daily anonymous tourney, or a Sunday Special, or spins/sngs. Point is you guys should test it out because from my own experience, its MUCH more fun and relaxing

hey guys Im in a real pickle here. I only have about 5 minutes before I have to leave, but I really want to play some poker and stack some donks. I wish I could play some kind of sit n go for 5 minutes but I guess I'll have to settle for cash games or a good fap. So lame dude.. stars has really gone downhill

anonymous tables ruin the fun of poker (reading people based on previous plays / building a name / glory etc)
