Just do this and if they get action on the table they are sitting on allow them to open another table

well honestly the standard to be an 888 pro is like one notch above a toilet cleaner and one notch below a car washer. Just gotta be somewhere in the middle and 888 might show up on your break and go ... eeey , you tired of this ****ty job? Can you look like a ****ing gomer pile in a close up picture to put on our website? do you know what a flush is? Join our team ... wear 888 slippers before bed and wear this button down 888 black dress shirt when you take your girlfriend out for dinner.

give me a ****ing break. at least full tilt has a bit of a screen processes for their pro's ... if you read the bio's for the 888 pro's it seems like they are all on the brink of busto, unless they just hit a tourney score. One of them is a sng grinder, that turned pro when he decided to move up from 5$ sngs to 10$ sngs... **** off ... i love you 888 so much for this reason, so please don't take this like a complaint. Keep up the good work.

ROFLMAO

Any of you guys not able to open the hand history settings to set it so that hh's save to disk. For the last couple months my handgrabber hasn't been writing hh's that are importable to HEM and this is what happens if I try to change the settings in the Pacific client to save hh's to disk:

I just get a little X of the corner of the options menu instead of the whole thing. I've tried reinstalling the software and have the most up to date version.

WillyT,

This is the most up to date version :

Let me know if you still have problems.

edit - Just wanted to confirm that this is not the same version you are using in your screencap.



Everyone,

I sent in the complaints about the delayed dealing when all-in. It's going back to the standard speed on Monday, for the time being at least.

why, wtf is the point of that, 1 is more than enough, then u can open another one when you've got a player

Are you guys fcin ******ed?

How the hell can you guys justify to hide HU tables by default??? If there is too many HU tables opened you should just limit the avaliable tables to sit at for each person at each stake. This makes a fair solution for all HU players.

By hiding HU tables by default you basicly gives all casinodonks who wants to try poker to 6max regulars. THAT'S NOT FAIR FFS.
You 6max regulars keep whining about the bumhunters at HU tables. What about yourself? You idiots never start a new table and instajoins in pos on the donk once there is one. THAT'S bumhunting you fcin scumbags! You guys are whining about us and you instasitout or never join my tables when I try to start a 6max table.

There are only 4-5 6maxplayers on the entire site that starts the tables themself and keeps playing if a reg sits. above 3-6 atleast. MitricAA, Muckfest, Oppussum(or whatever), needAAAA and Jeff(something).

So what justifies that you donkpendlers should get all the casinodonks by yourself? Ofcourse you can tell me that I'm free to sit as well, but I should be able to chose to play my most profitable game with the same chance to get a donk as you guys. Only reason you idiots don't donkpendle HU or play HU against regs are because your brains are to limited to play anything else than 99+

You guys are also allowed to open up to 4different 6maxtables on 5-10, so whats the difference in HU? To make it fair we should be able to open 4 HU tables on one specific stake aswell. On ftp you are able to wait at one regular, one deep and one PL. I miss one turbo, but atleast they have a system that's fair.

Hiding HU tables by defult RUINS the HU games since we will never get a single fish(and you 6max donks never wants to play HU). While you freaks can eat one fish after another when one of the good regs have waited on a table for 30minutes for that fish. What a joke to see how the tables fills up within seconds after the fish sits and how everyone instaleaves when the fish is gone. And you are whining about the selective HUplayers. pathetic!

Youv or Jon G, how can you guys do this HORRIBLE decision? Punish HU-players because we are good at a specific game? SHOW HU TABLES BY DEFAULT FFS!!! And in the meantime do something with the umbers of HUtables that makes it fair for both HUplayers and 6-max whiners. If they can open 4 tables on a stake and wait for players we should be able to do the same.

Yeah. HU should be dropped altogether

Did you even read mine or Yuv's posts about the HU situation in this thread or did you just decide to come in and start shouting?

We have stated many times that a solution is being worked on that will result in a limited number of HU tables at each stake, where you must play or be kicked from the table.

The decision to hide tables in the meantime has been made because it looks frankly horrible to have 200 HU games with one player sat in the lobby. I find it laughable that you accuse this decision of ruining the HU situation. The HU situation has always been awful, even before this everytime i checked there were basically never any games going. Your chances of a fish deciding to sit down on your table out of the countless others have basically gone from 1/100 to something a little lower.

I'd also like to comment on the 'just limit each player to one/two tables per stake' posts that have been made in the past day or so. Those systems don't generate play. We'd just end up with 1/2 or 1/4 as many half-filled tables as we do now. An improvement, but hardly great.

Anyway, the end result of this is that there will be a system in place that will actually generate play at HU. If you're confident in your game (which you sound), surely you will welcome this.

In an ideal world, yes

Yeah i've been seeing what you have been writing. It's still a horrible to hide the HU tables by default in the meantime. For all I know you guys are as slow as always and use 6-12months(read "fpp store") to get a decent solution on the HU situation.

When you say that HU tables should be removed in an ideal world, where do you get that from? That's the biggest joke I've ever heard. Heads up is the most accurate game in the pokerworld to decide what players that are donks. I don't say that it can decide anything, but it is still the most accurate game to decide who is best against one or another.

You can't see whats the problem in hiding the HU tables by default? Well, if you say that my chances are 1/100 to get a game before it's gone down to 0.01/100 now.
And some players are more selective in chosing hours to play. From 1am to 7am european time, I usually have 75% chance to get a game on 10-20/25-50 and about 30-40% at 5-10. Now it's more like zero. Do you expect me to do anything else than shouting when you take parts of my job away? I don't want to suffer because you are to incompetent to understand that both 6-max and HU should be treated equally and fair. That's called FAIR gaming. I will be very suprised if I EVER see that ftp or stars does something like this. Even fcin Everestpoker is more serious than this.

Anyway, you guys did a good job on the update even though i would prefer some more speed in the game like the old versions. And PLEASE change the defaultsettings untill you get you HU solution up running.

Im just courious btw, since you do agree with the 6-max monkeys in their whining on selective HU players here, what do you think of the same players never start their own games and instasitting whenever a donk sits and instaleaves when the donk is done? This can't be good for the site either, or?
In an ideal world everyone would play everyone, like old times on stars. I don't care if players are selective or not. Im not one of them and plays 99% of the field any day on pac, but I believe in a fair game. If the 6-max regs are selective, witch atleast 80% is, why complain about the HU players that bumhunts?

AND, please do something about the bug that keeps kicking me out of all 12 tables if I disc for 10secs and sits back in.

I ask why? Heads Up is the purest (and most skilled form) of cash game poker. Why should the true exponents of the game be punished and suffer due to the actions of a number of bumhunters abusing the system? There are a great many number of HU players willing to play anyone on the site, and if the game is abolished redbarracuda watch when such players as this flood 6 max games and suddenly its loudmouths like you that will become the fish. You wouldn't be +ev in a 6 max game against 5 skilled HU players so be careful what you wish for imo.

If you keep insisting on hiding the HU tables by default I have a better solution for your oversensitive eyes: Show 4 avaliable 5-10 6max at all time(as well a full obv) and 4 5/10 HU tables in default(with one waiting player), aswell as an empty HU table on each stake. Since the HU tables roulating from being on the "top/midle/low" on the stake you guys can make a system that all tables are shown as much as another. This gives everyone a fair chance to hit the random casinospewer. And instead of making the "show HU tables" button(witch should be "show heads up tables") you'll make a button that says "show MORE heads up tables".

Yes for sure. Players like paris_hilton, sos911, versus99 and umka they are overly horrible, only winning over the very worst donks for sure.

If you tried to read this thread last few weeks you would know its not a permanent solution. 888 or any site gets the most rake from 6max and they obv wants the most money. However they would also get a lot of money from hu if there is a fight for the tables, with 5 tables/limit regulars have to play each other to have the table, if theyre not playing theyre kicked off. This is how its gonna be and if you are a good player you will benefit a LOT from it, when the software for it is ready. Just be patient for a month or two.

**** you both ... its nice to see that our "888" rep doesn't represent all players accordingly. I will be sure to tell my vip manager and email these posts to them (not that it would do much). As a hu player i find it laughable that you are showing such bias towards a group of players. Its not like we are rush poker players or some gimmick game, HUNL is regarded as one of the purest forms of poker by some dood i forget the name of ATM ... anyway, pretty weak that your suppose to be representing all players and you say stuff like that. Makes me wonder if we are really getting fair representation at 888.
also your avatar blows

I was pretty much joking. I actually think this new system will be very good, but I'd be lying if I didn't think having no HU tables would be better than the current system.

I have said a dozen times I don't think hiding the tables is a good solution, but that I do think it is better than what it was.

Again, I agree. For the next two months (that is when the system should be in place), yeah, it won't be too fair. But it was hardly fair either in the past when a guy logged in and saw 200 HU tables and about 30 6-max.

I'll ask Yuv about unhiding the HU tables but the change was made for a reason and I doubt they will revert back until the system is in place.

Oh and also I agree that it should say 'Show Heads Up tables' and not 'Show HU tables', I already asked them to do this, and will ask again.

ive been playing 6max since the HU tables just don't run anymore and I'm still up 40kish this month so those overly whining about HU just play 6max in the meantime, poker is still poker

so much hate

i have also been playing 6 max and am in very nice profit from it but the point is that people what a fair opportunity to play their best game (hu) and 6 max shouldn't automatically take priority over hu to the extent where a lot of the HU players are going to suffer who were responsible for no wrongdoing in the first place

When will the sit out bug be fixed? There's people on tables sitting out for a day now, making it 4 max.

First of all it's not hate Syl, it's good old frustration

I do see the problem in having 200 HU tables and 30 6max tables, but there is still a question: Who is it to blame for that?
There are probably 30-40 different nl1k regs and there are usually none or one game going. What's up with that? Most 6max regs are such nits. And all the whining is about the HUnits from the same players that never start a new table themselves. Or at least sit as number 2, to get a game going. NITNITNITNITNITBUMHUNTERSSSS

I just mean, in the meantime while you guys doing your work, why should we suffer? It wouldn't be the hardest thing in the world to just slash the HUtables avaliable so that regs have to sit on other regs to get a table. and if blinds isn't posted within 30sec or something the guy loses his table. Just like you want it to be. Point is that before this time honest HUplayers suffer for no good reason. If the 6max nits had started 200 tables there would still be a problem?

How long time do you expect it to take to fix the HUproblem btw? It's a quite minor change to make it much better, that could be a temporary solution untill you guys have perfected it.

Why not just play 6max. Well sure, but you guys wouldn't react if all the fish left 6max because 888 hided your main game? If all the fish left 6max there would be NONE games going. That's scary. 5players waiting at the same table waiting for that single fish with 30BBs. It's kinda sad :/ Poker have become a work for way to many people compared to players on the site, and that's probably because of bad advertising from 888/LA/Littlewoods. Id gladly give up my VIP status on both LA and 888 to get a couple of more donks to join my HU tables now and then...

I ve also been playing 6max and i m up 1 billion dollars

You do realize they are running a business right? They have absolutely no obligation to be "fair" to any group of players, they will do what they think will be better for the site in the long run.

They don't like the looks of 300 heads up tables with 1 person sitting (can you blame them) so why don't you just respect that and go play somewhere else? Either offer up some viable solutions or gtfo and quit whining.

1 year ago and + , regs were smart, we only took 1 or 2 tables of nl1k and wait..now HU regs take 12 tables each...
show some respect between each of you and take only 1 table or 2...
no? you dont do it? then 888 will force you to!
its how it work!
-.-
