Or else all you have is 50 bumhunters waiting for hours for some drunk fish to show up.
This

On 2+2 i see alot of suggestion to help only the reg not the other way

Ok i will give credit for only one suggestion i had come across here and it was the infinite reload bonus for perpetual loser, anyway they will lose there money before clearing completly the bonus.
It's a win/win situation for the house and the reg

Question for OP:

Do you get equally pissed when you play someone for 2-3 minutes, a big hand develops, you suck out and stack the guy, and he disappears?

The only difference here is the money is coming your way instead of going. You're just pissed you lost some money and weren't allowed to use the gamblers fallacy that you can "get your money back."

If it really aggravates you, I'm sure there are 2+2ers that would challenge you to XXXX hands at X stakes and make good on it.

Just play HU SNG if you don't like hit and runs.

Only way to exit early is if you go Busto....


* Apologies for always giving examples and referring to myself in 3rd person, I do it too much.
lol 1k hands min in a HU match? You realize how many hours that is? Thats pretty laughable that you expect someone to commit to a minimum number, esp one unreasonable like that.

Well, you forgot that under the new proposed rules, 4-tables minimum is required. Other proposed ideas not mentioned in OP are:

1. No dude with an expecting preggo wife is allowed to play less than 8-tables unless the next door neighbor is a midwife, or she has made other ride arrangements.

2. All participants must have a cable line and backup dsl line in case of internet disruption.

3. In case of power disruption, participants must have either, (a) 3000 watt power generator, or (b) fully charged laptop with air card and 2 backup batteries.

4) If you go on a heater during the last 50 hands of a 1000 hand match, then you must commit to an additional 100 hands per buyin won (e.g., stack your opponent for 400 blinds = 400 more hands of makeup), unless you are still down on the match.

Leaving after a set profit is a profitable strategy

You should team up with this guy:

Between the two of you I'm sure you could make a poker site that both of you could play on.

Juk

you think pokerstars will ban hundreds and hunreds of players sitting out on single heads up tables. Every player that sits out is a registered player on the server. Make the site look busier than it really is. Bad for business. You have 72 players sitting out and two games going on thats 76 players showing not 4.

My sigh wasn't about the fact that there was already a thread on the subject, it was because I think the idea is extremely silly.

FWIW, it only took me about 30 seconds to find the thread in a search, but I knew what I was looking for, whereas OP didn't.
