Re: Corporate disobedience plan to counter the rake increase.
So what happens when Party figures out what happened and bans a bunch of you? If you don't think Party would want to ban high volume multitablers, you're wrong. They don't need us as much as you think, and if you really want to talk about longterm growth, well, the health of the games would be better served removing the very best players than by lowering the rake.

Re: Corporate disobedience plan to counter the rake increase.
This really seems like the same "Party only!" blinders that many people have.
You guys know that there are other sites, right? And these other sites offer comparable game selection, comparable bonuses, comparable rakeback, and/or any combination of the above? I can't imagine anything as mind-numbing and idiotic as timing down to 1 on every decision. For fucks sake, just play at Stars. Play at UB. Play at Absolute. Play at one of a million other sites, if you're that pissed. Of course, if you're willing to pay higher rake in order to have access to these games, or these games plus the ability to datamine, or these games plus the ability to use pokeredge, or whatever, then keep playing. But stop bitching.

They were attempting to have an intelligent discourse to explore the possibility of reversing Party's recent change to their rake structure. You were bitching.

Take as much time as possible over every decision. 72o UTG? Run the clock down to 3 seconds before folding! Similarly for AA on the button and every other decision. This WILL aggravate the other players at the table. Explain to them in the chat why you are doing it. Encourage them to email party, or to play at another site. When you finish a session don't leave the table. That way the table will be 5 handed at most for 15 minutes (the rake increase only applies to specifically 6 handed). There are enough twoplustwo readers at the tables for this to make a difference if you all do it. Someone should mention this on other poker boards too. Don't start this immediately, lets give ourself time to furnish the plan and set a start date for this mass disobedience. Party takes so much money and offers such poor service - take a stand! [/ QUOTE ] Slowing down the games is going to cost working pros in the game more than the rake increase did. scrub

Re: Corporate disobedience plan to counter the rake increase.
Hmmm. Sacrificing ev in order to protest something that has absolutely no chance of getting changed...sounds productive to me. After all, I'm sure Party Poker spent the time and money getting a virtual stranglehold on the online poker market so they could lower the rake and be very responsive to customer complaints.
