That is why I do not find you and those like you amusing, entertaining yourself at others expense, just blabbering for the sake of blabbering. You wanna be a smart ass cuz i ask you to please stop picking apart and re writing my posts in a way that you feel is more palatable to the poker community you think you are trying to protect or the site you are trying to suck up to? and this is your reply? Grow up man. And side note for everyone, poker isnt that much fun, people pley to make $, those looking to gamble with no control over the outcome can do it easier and have a lot more fun in sports or casino games and thats what a lot of us are trying to prevent the poker operators from forcing POKER players to do.
I'll send splaya a pm later explining more and to try to stop this public arguing, i think we are allon the same page just coming from different places and have a different way of going about things
What?
I've found splayaa's posts balanced, objective and informative. So much so that I'm feeling a WTF?!? at the hostility.
I play poker because it's a captivating game. The decision tree/branches/leaves challenge me. I find challenges a positive influence in my life. Positive is 'fun'.
I want to make '$' at poker. Not only because '$' is valuable to buy life essentials but because '$' is how the poker game is scored.
In fact, I think poker will thrive only through those players who find the game fun whether they win or lose ('fun' = captivating, interesting, challenging etc)
For the record, poker is a vital secondary source of income for me - or at least was while I lived outside the U.S. - so I'm thrilled Global is here for me now to build that into my life again since I've moved to the States.
Honestly, big bwalz, I think alarm bells should be ringing in your head that you're spending so much time and effort on something that 'isn't that much fun' just to earn a buck.
