[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I would be interested to hear any high-limit online players comment on this thread on neverwinpoker. Dan Druff, aka Todd Witteles, 2005 WSOP bracelet winner, has been running so bad in the Stars 100/200 than he is entertaining some notions about a "kill switch" that makes certain players lose. He does NOT say he believes in it, but he seems to be seriously considering it as an idea. Notice he doesn't have pokertracker, so there isn't any hard data. thread is here [/ QUOTE ] Most likely Dan Druff is just hamming it up for all the broke ass idiots on that site. If he was REALLY that upset about all of these beats it would shock me. [/ QUOTE ] When you are losing $1000s day in day out while playing your A game against retards it's very easy to start thinking all kinds of crazy things. [/ QUOTE ] I imagine, Dan, like many other players (including some of the most respected 2+2ers) vastly underestimates the variance inherent in poker. [/ QUOTE ] This is why some of us play NL. [/ QUOTE ] and take a huge pay cut [/ QUOTE ] "LOL"

That NLHE is inherently less profitable than LHE when talking about games w/ similar bankroll requirements? That was definitely true two years ago. Probably a year ago as well. I don't believe that is the case any longer.

Re: Dan Druff and Stars 100/200
[ QUOTE ]
Are you saying that LHE games are getting tougher? Or NLHE games are getting softer? Or both? Or neither? [/ QUOTE ] At high limits, both LHE and NL games are softer than they used to be. However, the rate of growth of big NL games has been faster than big LHE games.
