lol yes they can. The players knew it wasn't theirs and they only got it through a software flaw. It's not theirs. If Stars let them cash it out or something that'd be different, but if it's still in the account and they never had any right to it Stars has every right to take it back.

Whats the deal with people killing 100nl and never moving up, even after winning 50k+? Have you guys hyped up the 1-2 players so much in your minds that you're afraid to play them? I don't understand how you can not be curious about what your winrate would be at higher stakes. You could be costing yourself hundreds or thousands of dollars per day by not moving up, not to mention the extra fpps. I'm not trying to condemn, just genuinely curious.

Honestly, I think vini is single-handedly proving that 11/9 is a legitimate playing style.

(I mean this only as a compliment Vini)

at ipoker it was more like 60-70
No one is to be avoided at 100nl. And I promise you seeing <30 f3b is just variance, although it's going to be significantly lower than 70.

i can totally understand 11/9 working at 100 really well.

thing is he does well at 200 too which is harder to understand.
10-03-2009 , 04:22 AM
I got KK 5x in the last hour, and ran up against AA EVERY TIME. WTF is UP with that??

Risk aversion, not everybody is wired the same way like a CTS to run up stakes. When some people get 20k in their account, they think "I could buy XXXX with this" and the money becomes too real. When CTS has 20k in his account, he thinks that's a shot for 25/50.

100NL is the first limit you can make a good living which is why you see a lot of "100NL for life" players. I still think a good player could make a variance-free 100k+ at 50NL though.

to add...success at 100nl does not correlate 100 percent with success at higher stakes. im sure there are people who would be 2pt winners at 100nl, and 1.5 pt winners at 1knl. similarly, im sure there are players that would be 3.5 pt at 100nl, but b/e at higher stakes

vini you are forgetting those who beat 100 for 1ptbb but beat 200+ for much higher

I seriously doubt that a 3.5 pt winner at 100 would be break even at any stake but nosebleeds. I've played a lot of 5-10 and some 10-20, so I speak from some experience.

although i agree with your general idea here, i'm going to disagree.

i don't think a 3.5pt winner at 100nl is guaranteed to profit at 10/20 by any means, particularly in certain lineups.
