All players will have their win rate lowered with table selection gone.
If the bum-hunting regs can't play as much volume with a fish at the table, then assuming they put in the same volume, more of their volume will be put in playing weaker regs and better regs, which hurts all of the regs.
A current 4bb/100 winner will drop to 3bb/100.
A current 0.5bb/100 winner will drop to -0.5bb/100.
I don't see how a current weak reg with a 'win' rate of -1bb/100 can suddenly turn into a winner with a positive win rate as a result of these changes. If there is an explanation, then please put it forward.
If your idea is that the weaker regs get to play more hands with the fish now, well these weaker regs will take the money from the fish slower than the best regs, (more rake generated as the money gets transferred from the fish to the weak regs), and then these weak regs will end up handing this 'fish' money back to the better regs; only the weak regs will bleed this money very slowly to the good regs, (which again means more rake generated before the good regs finally get their hands on that cash).
So essentially removing table selection just means now that the weak regs get a better shot at the fish, the best regs now need to win that money off weak regs and fish, rather than winning it straight off the fish via table selection like what currently happens.
