they are accounting for the loss of revenue when people who multitable to insane degrees are forced to play less tables because of the rake increase. which is what they want, they still need to ensure a revenue stream but are prepared to take somewhat of a hit. because they know its going to piss some people off like they already have and they dont care what those players think about the changes. they figure those people are addicted and will always come back at some point because they have the biggest pool and the mtts are juicy enough to keep the recs/fish plus the potential to make money is still there and after
the SNE thing those that were whining the most about it proved they couldnt stay away. changing the reward structure for sn-elites and such was the first step/ clue that this was coming. they arent say dont multi table they are just saying if you can and beat the rake good for you but we are going to take a cut to discourage you from trying it. what they do with that money who knows but they are a business looking at expansions and other things. you dont think starsnj is paying for itself do you?
the other thing is some are too arrogant and egotistical and think they have more skill than they really do. i have a feeling their "luck" is going to change. karma is leveling/balancing out the poker ecosystem through stars.
poker is not on this earth to be an exclusive game for a priviliged few to profit from. count your blessings be gratefull for what you get. but people forget that and become spoiled. you'll see. but what do i know im just some "whacko" who is "clueless.". the creator is changing manys lives. REPENT AND YOU SHALL BE SAVED. lol
forgot- on the bright side maybe RIO is the future option for some of those mass tabling nits and others who are unhappy with stars. stars will be around as long as there is online poker.
