Sent a lot of emails out about getting a 'NO MAX' buy in

[1800GAMBLER]

Still trying to get this happen for the twoplustwo game and hopefully as a new game in online poker, simply because it would make us a lot more money to play the fish in these games.

Subject: Suggestion for New No Limit feature.

Hi.

Long time poker player of nearly every site here. A large group of no
limit
poker players from twoplustwo and other players i've spoke to are really
looking for a no limit game with no maximum buy in, only a min, to run
permentaly for the people of the site. So far no site offers this at all
and
i'd imagine lots of players would move to the site for this reason alone.

We even agreed people would pay an increased rake on these games, since
it
seems the reason these games aren't offered at the moment is to protect
the
weaker players resulting in more rake for the site. If the min buy in was
large enough, say, 500 big blinds then i'm sure at some sakes people
would
be happy paying a very large max rake in large pots.

Even if the idea of getting new players to the site doesn't overweigh the
extra cost in rake this may lose you, after people sign up to the site to
play these, if they feel the rake in this game is too much then they
would
just move to the standard no limit game. Hence you get the same rake and
players from your competiting sites.

Any plans?

Hi Jason -
I understand that some players would prefer a "no-max-buyin" table. But we
have such tables - they're called "play money" tables :-). And at those
tables, people with *huge* stacks simply jam on every hand. It's kind of a
bizarre form of poker, but some people like it. Sure, they run into KK
once in awhile, but occasionally T7s beats KK. And if it doesn't, then
they just come back on the next hand and do it again.

Pretty soon things at the table degenerate into giant nuclear
confrontations and poker stops.

Anyway, I don't think we want to host something like that.

I do, however, truly appreciate your taking the time to send us your
suggestion.

Best regards,
Lee Jones

I guess i'll go make the extra profit from these games in their 'play money' tables.
