[Merge Gaming Network] Discussion Thread - Page 141 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

VRFour is the opposite of someone I would ever stop playing while he spewed. Why should people who have no real life interactions w/ this guy not line up to take his money? Poker is a predatory game where you make money from other peoples flaws, whatever they may be. If some spewy reg goes overboard 1 night that's his fault.

from what i read in the other thread the guy is up half a million dollars on that site, and then one night shows up open shoving full buy-ins with ATC.

set the over under at 1.5 players who reported suspicious activity on his account to the site while he was doing it and i'll take the under.

the Frenzy Freeroll promotion seems to be really good. if i read the details correctly without
making a deposit in order to play it everyday all you have to do is play 25 raked hands at any stake or 5 SnGs at any stake.

He was up like $50K before his spew fest. Now he is up $23K or something like that. He also is known to do things like that, just not on such a grand scale.

I hope I'm in the right spot.

Got on the Carbon mobile app site & didn't see an option to play Omaha or Sit n Gos.

I'm on a Samsung Galaxy 10.1 tablet.

And I can't seem to download the regular site from this tablet.

Help appreciated, thanks.

It is nice to seem them finally doing something to stop the bleeding though. Hopefully between the double tournaments and the $1 $10K added last week and the free rolls this coming month it will get people excited to play here again. The highroller has been doing much better this week I've noticed.

I wish they would have made the OPS something to get excited about though.

On the mobile app, does anyone know when they're getting SnGs? Or tournaments?

Pokerhost related; What's the deal with these loyalty cards? For 1500 loyalty points, I can buy a $5 card. With 1500 points, I can enter $15 worth of tourneys. Am I missing something here?

They think people are dumb enough to buy these to counteract their huge withdraw fees.

are Sports Book players back in smaller stake MTTs? i just saw 2 accounts that i'd never played with buy in 7 times each (tourny with 79 entries total).

now some guy i've never seen is chip leader ands spews off a 80 bb stack in 5 hands on the bubble.

It's a $12.5k GTD all week, though player totals bumped it up to an average of $15,800 per pool this week. Looks like it didn't hit it's minimum player total to start the tournament tonight (5 players were registered - guessing it needed 6-9 players to start it).

^^ Too high stakes for me. I actually started playing last Sunday with the doubles. Never really played much on Carbon, but it was pretty decent. Might put a little on for the OPS if I find some time.
