All online traffic is tracked, btw, Stars is way down...

I am sad to hear you do not like the place anymore! I am a play money player as yourself due to the USA laws. I love the people there and all the games. I came there when Full Tilt went down under. There are some very good play money guys there. I am in aww! Who cares if traffic is down or what other people say. Play where u want

Now we can have a private club!

GG Poker is owned by Chinese psychopaths. They are a bunch of gangsters/criminals. The rake is super high, the rewards program is bait n switch and if you win big, instead of paying you they steal your account balance. Dont play on Gangster Gangster Poker aka GG Poker.

Amen Brother!!!!!!!

My CEO is not ripping off anybody. This entire thread is a waste of bitter people talking garbage because they have nothing else to do. I love PS and this is the last comment I am making unless u really want me to get the group involved.

Go somewhere else, none of us care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What are we arguing about again? Somebody posts something and we all argue about it? It’s pretty fun tho. Everyone should post their age. I’m curious.

but maybe play money players with a weird crush on a poker site should not refute criticism from long term real money players on that site. Especially since the volume is tracked and for everyone to see.

Good thing he made his last comment because nobody really wants him to get involved.. although that would be wise since the next ban probably wouldnt be temporary.

You do realise that the entire point of this thread is that people have gone somewhere else to play?

Also, are you aware that the concept of a poker forum is to discuss topics regarding poker?

Good luck at those play money tables!

Your decision. Many of us love the place, With traffic down or so u men say we are just going to build a stronger private community. Members Only.

Good luck on GG. Whatever that is.

I stand up for things and people I believe in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless Poker Stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know which of you is worse, but you're both doing an awesome job of completely derailing the thread. Maybe time to move on?

Come on Bobo, this is comedic gold!

But seriously, to get things back on track: PokerStars has done the same thing Party did when UIGEA hit - submit to bullshit regulations. Back when UIGEA hit they didn't and Party lost its #1 spot to Stars/FTP, now GG doesn't with half of Europe regulating and therefore they're taking the spot.

The fun thing is - I don't think GG as an Asian company will ever comply (fully), therefore they might be here to stay for longer than PP/Stars did.

Stars put all their eggs into the "return to the US" basket. Good luck with that, what an absolutely ******ed decision.

I don't know whether or not that has been a big factor, but it shows the difference in public vs. private ownership. When UIGEA was passed, Party was public and Stars wasn't; now Stars is, and I assume GG isn't.

I'm seriously thinking about depositing to GGpoker. I mix lowstakes cash and mtt, so I want to ask this. I remember some time ago(maybe two years) invoker(Russian high stakes reg) said that rake is unbeatable at GG poker up to NL1k. I think rake was uncapped back then and they have preflop rake. Now it's capped it seems, so is it beatable now at low stakes, say NL50? How about fast fold poker? Hope for inputs from guys who play there.

Still better at 100 and 200 because you can achieve 50% rb there if you grind for a while.
