Re: This will turn out to be a good thing for us
[ QUOTE ]
I don't see any doom and gloom on the horizon for myself, but it's probably going to be a long cold winter for the "rakeback pros" J [/ QUOTE ] Count me as one...I just estimated that, with the loss of good rakeback and bonus-whoring tables on skins, my income for this month dropped $3,000...that's huge to a player like me. 1.0BB/100 hands just might not cut it. Time to dust off the resume. A year of online poker for a living...it was fun. I miss it already. Actually, I'll try to stick it out for a few months, let the dust settle, and see how it goes. However, a portion of my time each day will be devoted to seeing about getting back into the old accounting game.

Get in there get to work/get in yours hours ..tommorrow will be a better day news-wise. This is really not all that horrific. It will just take some time to smooth things out.

Goddamn it. If we had a wartime consigliere, a Sicilian, we wouldn't be in this shape! Dad had Janko; look what we got. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Re: This will turn out to be a good thing for us

[ QUOTE ] Depends on who you are. For a breakeven player who relies on rakeback for a living, this is catastrophic news (though in the long run perhaps such a player will now be motivated to learn to really win at poker.) For a decent player, this could be quite positive. [/ QUOTE ] I think its bad for both..for a player that breaks even and relies on rakeback, this is bad..and for the better player that doesnt rely on it, this is bad because those players that do rely on rakeback to make a living must now stop playing poker and get a realy job, leaving the better player less fish to eat up on [/ QUOTE ] A breakeven player doesn't qualify as a fish!
