No I meant what I said in the OP. This guy is a legend of the mass table grind. The game volume would be much different if he wasn't around.

If I thought he was a bot - I would have said I think he is a bot like I've done in the past for ACR related issues. I have no problem with suggesting someone might be a bot if you have a strong suspicion that someone might be to see what others might think.

I don't need to be passive aggressive about anything. I can be directly aggressive.

I believe you. There are a bunch of NL regs I think are using certain software as there is nothing stopping it or a way for global to know.

Yes adderall leads people to make posts like this.

I could do it consistently if you gave me a table ninja like program but given Global's software and inability to stack tables you have to be one sick beast to play such consistent long hours at that volume.

Given no rewards from Global and a decreased edge playing so many tables with no helper software, I have found it is not worth the extra strain. So besides being a beast from the sheer volume he plays, it is even more sick to be a big winner while doing it. Not an easy thing to do without some form of assistance software.

My hat is off to him if it is all legit though. Just let me see it in action on Twitch for a day.

ACR is a better site for high volume players because of rakeback, the beast, Holdem Manager and other multi-tabling features. He only came back after their software upgrade **** up. I would guess it is in his best interest to go back.

I think that if you only played Global and slowly added in more tables - you can figure out a system to play 12+ tables on here. I remember 24 tabling tiling w/ no HUD on PS before the multi-table programs like Table Ninja became a thing. Then it became easier to mass table w/ more programs and tricks and I also started tiling/slight cascade for my 24 table sessions.

Once you get used to not using any software and find a good table setup - I think it would be pretty easy to 10 table. I've figured out a good way for 8 tables right now but you then also have to reprogram your brain to think about less than you might be used to. When you play 4 tables - you are able to put more energy into each decision vs 8 tabling - if you try to do the same, you will start to time out on all your tables. The art of acting very quickly and doing it in a winning style is an entire other animal all together. I'm glad I've spent 20385023855 hours doing both because you learn different things along the way that you wouldn't normally.

Feels like a backpedal. Say what you mean. Is he this good mass multi-tabling a browser based poker site, with no software allowed, sun-running the lion's share of pots? Or could he be.....a God?

Go ahead and play PLO on global, best of luck!

The normal population can't use software, nor cares enough.

At least on ACR we know everyone is on same page using pokertracker/holdem manger etc. On ignition, we are all "anonymous".

On global, if you are savvy enough to create programs that give you any type of statistical or seat scripting advantage, you are a winner.

5% rake is enough of a reason to not play here. Go play live. Legit online poker is dead in the US except for those of us desperate enough.

Will never play here casually again, unless I find an awesome collusion pool and cheat like the rest. LFG.

Global is fine, although I cashed out because I have a casino 20 minutes from my house with way better games.

May consider adding some $$$ on again, I did like playing on my phone when I was traveling.

I do agree that it needs a reward program

Easy to see why to be fair

I just reread my OP and I thought so as well.

So you have no ethical problem with cheating?

Joey, with all of the notes I’ve taken from your podcasts I probably have enough content to compile a small book of poker and life wisdom. Idea?

CTB was one of the first people to ever get supernova elite on poker stars. He deserves all the respect.
