You don't have to believe that if you don't want to, but that is my honest impression.

Our statement should be up within 24 hours. We got it approved from Stars and are just finalizing a few details.
Exactly. Thanks to all you guys who attended and chose to adopt the mature and thoughtful approach. This will be helpful to the community. Looking forward to the repors

OPR, pokernews, and other online media outlets out side of the SNE rip off supported the stars changes hard to have players rise up in that kind of atmosphere.

Do or do not there is no could. That being said media bias does not help with shaping public opinion.

supernova player doesn't need extra opinion from media to decide whether to join the boycott or not. media can affect only recreational players.

Sounds like a decisive statement if you ask me. Aside from that could you tell me why they aren't joining the boycott?

my point was media is not the reason why supernovas being passive. i just wonder why they are. seems like they are satisfied with being blatantly robbed.

Just received my SNE token of appreciation. Like others have mentioned, it was a wired mouse, useless lol. On top of that, DHL made me pay $21.92 CAD in duties. You would think stars would prepay the duties on a gift! I would never even pay $20 for this mouse.

Great move by stars, the bum hunters aka "wait listers" gonna be mad. Guys that cant open sit now that stars have limited the tables, now waitlist the fish when they play someone else. Just stars countering that, I know cause guys are always waitlisting me

Let's all take a moment to appreciate this fine irony.

I hope the ****ing book of vengeful justice gets smashed by one/many Canadian (and hopefully later American pending extradition for SEC violations) judges into Baazov's smarmy, greedy face.

Sorry to bump up an old thread - but guess every time rake gets raised or VIP bonuses get cut back, one of the concerns of a lot of players is the possibility that players might start moving down stakes ... either because the games get too hard, or because the games don't run as frequently? Which was something that was met with a bit of doubt from some people (it might have just been PocketDucks?? )

Just spotted what appears to possibly be evidence of 'trickle down' - if Innerpsy would usually play higher than 200nl, but his regular game isn't running?




Anyways, thought this might help save a lot of back and forth, if next time benefits are cut, people voice concerns about 'trickle down', and others are doubtful?

Dont think Amaya gives a f*** tbh. They will rake everyone to the death with zoom pools and them stupid bingo games a.k.a. Rake and Goes.
Yes yes i know there is allegedly winning regs there, but really i like 100bb + poker not this crap
