Hi All,

Ive played Pokerstars since time began, and watched it slowly get worse day by day since the amaya takeover.

Recent news about multi table cash games going from 24 cap to 4 cap tables is just ridiculous beyond belief.

Is there anyway we can start a petition for the original makers and founders of Pokerstars to just make another site that we can all go to and enjoy again.

How can we do this?
Where can we start?

Please help before PS is completely ruined

Although I think you may have missed the point.....

So you think PS got better since takeover?
And your happy with being limited on what you play?

How about a mass sit out where every reg sits out at 24 tables?
Every reg used to do that in the past, and it never ended up changing anything.

This is great. Particularly for the fishies at the micros.

Alas, once again, anything Stars do, however minor, is an Armageddon kick starter for most thread makers nowadays.

Its not great at all

Everyone starts as a fish

Then you learn and progress

Bit drastic to drop from 24 to 4 though!

Lets see. He sold Stars for 4 Billion. Since it was private, no idea about cap table or how much he onwed but I would assume quite a bit.

Not sure how you motivate a billionaire to do anything. But good luck.

My heart bleeds for them!

Do you think .... poker revenue is possibly declining because they keep ****ing it up and changing it

IF IT ISN'T BROKEN .... DON'T FIX IT

Listen to yourself .... If 1 person only plays 1 table then yes they will make the same from them and not more

But if you stop everyone that was playing 5,6,7,8 tables and reduce that then you lose money, you don't make more

The problem is he also needs to invent time travel to create this company again at a time when this was a relatively new/emerging industry, as opposed to a very, very mature one. You may not realize that, but billionaires probably are a bit more aware of it.

All the best.

So they make a poker site advertised as from the makers of PS and then anyone with a brain who remembers the good times and have seen the declines will go there and play.

Plus there is no competition in online poker which is why PS sits at 80000 players online and nothing else gets close
