@SteelCity

Check this thread out:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/62...r-nsfw-612905/

The nice green man in that thread can get you hooked up.

You can request an avatar in this thread.

If you already have one you want to use, instructions to change your avatar are here.

thanks guys i appreciate it a ton...been 'lurking' for a long time so il probably see you guys around...

Random question:

How was this user able to get their screen name to run for two lines? I don't think I've ever seen that before (or maybe im not paying enough attention) and my username took up all the available space when I was making it.

Depends on the browser and which skin you are using for viewing. On my phone it is on one line. The space in the middle of the name helps.

I don't exactly agree. This can almost be compared to news of BF caliber, then it could be represented in the main 2+2 news forum as well.

Not sure if srs or just trolling to get mocked.

Sry, citizens of USA.

But when Stars or other actors open in the US after legislation, it will much be about: "Zoom or not Zoom, that's the question"


This will have impact on the FTP question as well. Rush Poker was a major specialty of FTP, now Zoom is here.

I'm thankful that censored words on 2+2 retain their character count so usually you can figure out what the intended word was. Such is not always the case on the internet.

Ha ha ha, true. I have problems with some of the longer ones though.

** you

Notice I never said it couldn't be in NVG as well; I'm just saying that locking it in NVG and sending everyone to IP wouldn't be unreasonable.

There's a fair bit of crossover between the two forums. Sometimes subjects are allowed to exist in both, and other times they're closed in one forum.

The upside to allowing them in both is that there are many NVG readers that don't read IP, and vice versa, so more people see the threads this way. The downside is that you get the same conversation going in two different forums, and good points might be made in one thread that aren't in the other - it's much simpler if the conversation is all taking place in one thread.

In this case, I'm somewhat indifferent. It's not like this is some breaking news event that everyone has to hear about right now , and most people who are really interested in the different games they can play on online sites will end up in Internet Poker anyway. Also, with a well-established thread in IP, many questions people might have will already have been answered. On the other hand, it's not like it's some controversial topic on which there will be a raging debate, so duplicate conversations aren't especially harmful, and it is a subject that will be of interest to many NVGers.

I will add, saying this news is nearly of BF caliber is kind of silly IMO. It's not even close. BF had a huge impact on players around the world, causing many to have money tied up for a long time, and possibly lost for good. Zoom poker is a cool new opportunity for half of our posters. The two aren't even close to comparable. But topics don't need to be BF caliber to have a thread in both forums.

Cliffs: Threads in both forums or just in one are equally reasonable solutions IMO.

You are right about that BF was very clearly bigger news, and the news kind of were boom, many people directly suffering.

But this day (or yesterday) is the day zoom probably will begin its kind of paradigm shift (ok, FTP rush apart). We could envision the historic development of poker like this:
1. Live
2. Online
3. Multitabling
4. Zoom (/Rush)

I would have liked to be around and witnessed the day the wheel was (re)invented

Hai lep

I'm from the UK and play ~2,000 donkaments on Stars a month. Comparing the launch of zoom To Black Friday related news is just LOL.

I wasn't really comparing. As a means of promoting my idea I said "almost compare", to get the effect. Maybe it was bad taste, sry for that.

But, hey, principally this is important news, imo.

Are you serious? Pokerstars launched 10NL zoom and you're comparing this to hundreds of thousands of Americans losing millions of dollars. Okay.

I'm not comparing.

Forgot tournament poker from my list, which was a major shift, starting live at WSOP. It could be number 2. Live cash was number 1.

Wiews about this list as a means to describe an aspect of the development of poker?

1. Live cash
2. Live tournaments
3. Online
4. Multitabling
5. Rush/Zoom
