Ouch, yeah wtf. Time for a revolt imo. Especially cause I just lost another tournament near the bubble where the deciding hand was JJ vs AKs on a J78 rainbow flop. (96% equity ldo). Winning the hand would have put me 2nd in chips in the MTT

. Instead I lose that hand and then lose my next shove, bleh. I'm glad this NC thread is here for me to whine in.

This is wrong, and I think you know why.

Tell me about - what is rong with fish fry tourny

- its exactly the same as any other tourney.

Must be all the free coaching and bounties and encouraging people to interact on a friendly basis within the community and to have something to do other than a constant grind

I am this mad^^^^^

As if it wasnt hard enough to encourage people to play without them seeing a locked thread and thinkn it was dodgy

rant over before i say something to get banned

Hey guy- chill

These are smart people with a business to run. They will check it out and turn it loose or they will have an intelligent reason to lock it up. Its all good. Nobodies doing anyything funky here. Bottom line: They own the website

They're just making sure the hungry lawyers don't need to get fed. Don't worry about it.

I'm Supernova (my status isn't visible though). I've played a couple $5 and $10 DoN's before when drunk (like 15 to 20 of them). My winrate at them is pretty high too ... like 85%. lol

I played a $1 DoN the other day.

Stars introduced a new theme (Slick) and I was taking it for a test drive. (Decided to stick with the old)

Ro

I like the triple barrel -especially after the donk bet on the river. Im sure that'd be a high variance play but still - nice.

Also i suppose supernovas could be donking aroung while drunk or also trying to sort out bet-pot scripts or fix PT3 or HEM HUD. Still was a little shocked to see him there lol. Must of been drunk because he was rubbish lol

I am seeing more and more Stars ensignia, all levels, including supernova's can anyone tell me why people are choosing to display these things. At first glance it seems not +EV tp display those?

I was wondering this myself. I mean, if you don't play poker that much (i.e., you're a fish) are you really gonna want to sit at a table with 2 or 3 supernova's?

supernova = plays a lot, not necessarily high stakes/good player. People are proud of their star level and want to brag about it or something. Almost certainly -ev to give away extra information to your opponents.
