I'm curious. How bad are the donks that play 30/60 and 100/200? Do they crush 5/10 but are so much worse than 30/60 and 100/200 players but haven't realized it, or are they as bad as 0.5/1 players?
There can't be many people who can afford to loose many big bets on stakes that high. In short, what kind of people do you guys make money from?

the people who dream the dream of playing loose agro and winning. they take money from the very rocky tighties and lose it to the real players.

the players that beat the lower limits all the way up through 30/60 and think they are gods gift to poker, that they can play more hands and play them faster and be great by reading hands.

those are the feeney dreamers.

others who lose tons are the actualy 50/25/2 super agros who usually play the game for a few hours at a time and leave. if you're at the table when they are, prey for hands that hold up.

yet others include great/good/decent players who tilt easily and lose their ASSES because they can't keep their composure. JAsucker had a great post about the "fish" at his game and how he makes money simply by not tilting...sounds easy doesn't it? what is the #1 skill i stated for high limits? control. dont have a link to the thread but thats my opinion and a few others as well.

the remainder of the game is composed of good/decent players with whom you just have to wait on and read hands. its clear what they have a lot of the time.

Because he believes these games are bad for business. The fish will go bust too quickly, which will cause the good players to leave as well. Since he cannot convince Party to remove the 50/100 and 100/200 games altogether, the best he can do is keep them to two tables only and to limit the number of people playing even further by keeping them off the skins. If Party decides to expand the number of tables regardless, I'm sure Eurobet and the rest of the skins will be forced to carry them as well.

why would they want someone taking money that he won in sports and spreading it around the party network's poker players? they want people to get a chance to lose their money back to THEM, nto to poker players.

Ok as far as i'm aware empire etc doesn't have a sports book and they aren't added there still? If that's the case, it seems like the eurobet guy is just bitter at party's decision to not let eurobet etc have the tables.

I don't think it's up to Eurobet/Empire/Multi/Intertops to accept/decline those tables. With quarterly income expectations it makes sense for Party to make their skin more appealing.

that thread sounds awesome but i can't seem to find it. do you remember what it was called by any chance?

[TheWorstPlayer]

He may be talking about Bruiser's thread in MHNL which just got bumped. JAS had a great post in there about non-tilt.
