******OFFICIAL STARS REGULARS THREAD****** - Page 52 - Small Stakes Pot Limit Omaha

Waiting to see what the changes are elicits the same feelings as when I used to wait to read the changes for each new patch at Warcraft or HoN or Dota or whatever game I was playing at the time. [/nerdspeak]

In two words - online gambling is getting regulated, licensing rules are a joke and operator tax will be ridicuolusly high, highest on the market. Unlicensed sites will be filtered by the ISPs, which is another joke.

15% doesnt look that high considering profits of online operators...

Thnx for quick answer

It's 15% on the turnover, not on the profits. This means that 15% of every bet you make are owed to the government. Yeah, it's ridicuolous, I know. They said they'll change the taxation after the gambling law has passed cause it's defined by another law but I don't see this coming in the near future.

so i was very very tilted, playing worse than a monkey. 5betting any4cards as many of you guys already saw.

At most tables i am 4betting 60-70%, looking to get in w/ any 40-60%. 3betting more than 30%.

then at 2tables we are 5ahnded w 1fish. the fish leaves and what regs do? lol i am burning chips, desesperated and people quit.

i could understand if i was a solid player. even if when not tilted i can be good, right now i ws burning chips and i people quit me... i am alone at 3tables.

lol nice table selection bumns.

I used to have a lot of trouble with going off in chat. Solution: (1) mod the table so the chat box is gone; (2) self ban your chat. I did both; just sucks when someone makes a snide comment and I can't say anything back

Just to be clear, it's crystal and the image inside is 3D made from micro bubbles. There's a company here which makes anything from crystal, you just have to give them a picture of the image you want inside.

Btw, a SNE guy from the Czech Republic just asked me if it is possible to order one for him too
