And they would have down much further had Pstars not continued to run hypers way past the start of the tourney to ensure they don't have an overlay.

So gross to see so many lhe regs that are getting hurt the most by this change playing while I and other regs stand up for their right. So disappointed by the selfish action
12-01-2015 , 09:33 PM

Just wanna chime in and say that even though I fully support and respect the strike, pointing fingers at the people who chose to play during these 3 days is silly and childish to say the least.


I'll personally not play 2 out of the 3 days and join for the full duration in January as well.
12-01-2015 , 09:47 PM
It's nice to see that most of the lobbies are so empty. And that people are holding true to their word. I hope it stays like this.
The only person I see who is playing who isn't sticking to his word/the boycott is CeeGee87.

This. Let's keep this a positive effort and encourage others to join and not shame them for not doing so.

Heads-up lobby for the higher stakes look great right now. Not too many regulars who would normally be holding tables logged on right now.

Hopefully the bigger names who haven't joined yet will do so for the remaining two day.

we should do this strike the next year as well, we will be more people

I think high stakes players (1k+ NLHE) are the most important participants in the strike (for cash games). If Amaya see's a substantial drop in rake at high stakes over the course of the strike, maybe they will reverse the removal of rakeback at 1k+. I can't fault Nanonoko for playing, but it is extremely disappointing to see him at 5/10+ right now given the additional importance of the high stakes situation.

Well, except that today is/was Tuesday, and yesterday was Monday, not Sunday.
12-01-2015 , 11:40 PM
This is not any regular Monday this is a huge promo Monday, this has definitely cause a dent

Future actions on standard days will really be telling

This is a good test run

2+2 is the way to go if you want to talk poker and find real poker people but for news and stuff I used to log on and go straight to pokernews for all my poker updates, that slowed down a few years ago when they changed format. Pocket5's at times HSDB and a couple of others is where I look now. What is the site that you guys use most for up to date poker info like the pokerstarsboycott for example? Twitter and stuff is something I am trying to get used to but just wondering if there is somewhere everyone goes for their poker fix. #pokerstarsboycott
Few reg's will be missing my Td3d flop flush chase all in not just 1-3 Dec more like from now on till they come to their senses.

There will be a ton of regs who are close to SNE who just can't afford to lose 3 days playing.
12-02-2015 , 03:44 AM
In these 3 days i am finally giving 888 a proper shot, so far looks like they really have improved their software and field is really soft. Are there any huge downsides to playing there at the moment (collusions, horrible support, questionable account closures)?
