Yeah I've played the triple board PLO game. (6 card PLO.) It's a sick game.
Have also played Omaha double board (limit), but that's not such a good game imo.
I did try playing this briefly. Why have they done annoying things like not allowing you to being able to change the table theme/layout, so you're forced to use that one, as well as not allowing timebanks? And also only allowing exactly an 80bb buy-in?
Seem like some dick moves imo.

I think the rest of your "analysis" on the sustainability of the game is of little value, because you do not consider how many people are depositing to play the game, or how much fun it is for the players.
This is like evaluating the value of a chair, and only considering how much it costs - and failing to consider the features, what it does, and how much demand there is for it.
This is just one of the worst analogies ever.
And your whole post is filled with disgusting condescension. You also very obviously ignore and avoid valid points that people make, in favour of only focusing on your other nonsense.
It's obvious that people's issue with the game implementation is the rake and somewhat unbeatable nature of the game, not the game itself. So it would be a pretty reasonable move for Stars to try out the game but with having a lower rake on it. Even if it's only a lower rake when the pots are split. (Not that I expect that to happen.) Otherwise the game will start to die, as Treadlightly has already said that it is.
So maybe you could try addressing that properly rather than purposefully/willfully ignoring it.
When people generally want to play in a game that they might actually be able to win in. Which (despite your best efforts) people do still care about.
As well as people obviously being understandably upset with the direction that Stars is going as a whole, which this game fits in with and reiterates. With Stars focusing on their short-term bottom line more, increasing the rake everywhere and caring about the players less.
