you think they're lowering the rake if they didn't sign KH?
KH will at least bring some new players into the game.whether or not he's actually worth whatever they're paying him- who knows.Makes more sense than sponsoring grinders who bring no fun players to the games.
the complaining is for the exact reasons i already stated in this thread.
As for the bolded-nobody on here had a problem when for years rec players were getting completely ****ed on pre amaya stars because it benefited regs financially.these players don't care about poker- they care about their own bottom lines.exactly the same as stars does. amaya is the devil to them bc now they're the ones getting ****ed. stop being hypocrites.
if amaya went back to the old way of giving fish the shaft and giving regs handouts destroying the long term health of the games the people benefiting would be fine with that.but since that's not the case all the sudden they're poker purists who care about the love of the game or some such bull**** and amaya is greedy scum.comedy at its finest.
regs are greedy, amaya is greedy and both only care about their own bottom lines.
