the rake is perfectly beatable at nl50
there's a few regs who only play nl50 and they have like 7ptbb over 200k hands

Stars will probably implement something like KOTH next year, but it's not so easy as you think
check the 2+2 thread where they were discussing the HU lobby, pure KOTH will suck hard on stars, I'm pretty sure that would be a disaster

Partypoker anonymous lobby would be decent if they weren't stupid
the anonymous lobby only have 25 tables each limit, and it comes first then the normal lobby so you can get more action there, you can "battle" for the tables, but instead of booting the player who is sitout, they just close the table when there's 2 players and there's no game going on, lol
so the russians scumbags don't give you action and don't leave the table

same shit is happening on microgaming, there's only 3 tables per limit and they are all anonymous, you can sit and battle to steal the table, but players don't get boot for being sitout and they just keep siting out forever and shut down your action

can you give your winrate playing regs on NL100? ( if its even possible, maybe with some filters tweaking? )

I don't think it's possible to filter

but really madeinpoland if you wanna improve against regulars you have to start playing them

if you wanna improve against regulars you have to start playing against them

Im not so sure KOTH will give a lot of high stakes action at least.

They are all friends at the high stakes, and they usually know who are top 10 (and nr 3 knows he is worse than nr 2)

They will take 1 table each and then they will together analyze you and help each other to beat you if you do decide to sit down (and will not play each other)

na this was day after im sure time logs are there ;p

eh, if you appear to hand select at all preflop a lot of people will sit out, regardless of what you buy in for i find.

When I first tried HU I had no PTR history or tourney history or anything at all, and people usually sat out within 3 hands.

Same. Pretty sure it has a lot to do with the auto-reload and making 'snap decisions' preflop.

Well, actually. ~3 years ago there was a lot more action given all around. These days - half the time you buy in full, you get sat out. Would be curious to see if Jungleman could have done his rise to fame under todays HU bullshit.

i dont think many poker players could make there rise to fame under todays anything

lol thats pretty funny but there is alot of meta game angling goin on now a days. Playing in ways where you can tilt semi fish regs is a must. Especially when I lure other sng players to play cash with me. Look extra terrible at first and give them lots of action. Took a few of em for a few g. Players that are never used to playing with >20bb's but make decent money to splash around.

Btw LOL at the Pokerstars Stud High lobby...

How can Pokerstars seriously allow that, lolol

I joined a guy from Germany at 0.5/1 PLO. He asked for 4 tables, I said no thanks 2 if you like... he won a 50BB pot first hand and then sat out saying if I didn't want to play 4 tables then he didn't want to play. He said its his table, I joined his table and that means he's in the right to dictate any terms he wants. I asked how often he actually gets anyone join his table whose just instantly willing to play 4 tables he didn't reply. I asked if he thought he was fair he said yes. I said you're only fair if you at least give me a button he lol'd and said no honour in poker anymore.

Its people like this that make there be no honour any more in poker and he is nowhere near the worst.. Its a joke really. Fish are surely going to be so turned off by all these people just sitting out all the time.

I also got sat out by 9/10 regs, ridiculous.

I honestly wonder if he just asks for 4 tables so he can grim a sb everytime while he's waiting for a known complete whale.. seems like a gay (or insert more politically correct word) way to make a living though.

Fish don't stop gambling because one reg in HU reg decides to grim the fk out of them

Fish stop gambling online because regs act like total douchebag.

2-4 chinese players at every table sitting out and waiting for fish

Opening 5-20 tables per limit

Not exactly good for those stud games long term

They've had to become very polite these days
