hey relax don't worry! the 2+2'ers are whining (what they do best!) so things will be "fixed" I am sure...

I'm just posting that it's kinda funny that the whining of the 2+2'ers resulted in the removal of the thing that would make the switch to Dealt actually sane.

I'm perfectly fine with "dealt" because I'm mainly a HU..4handed player myself, mostly limit games. But when the rake% is the same, or the cap is high, there's no real benefit to playing shorthanded games when it comes to going for rakeback/supernova ... so their whining resulted in the return to unfair rake/cap and thus "way to go, idiots!"  Roll Eyes

Been playing some .01/.02 NLHE fullring as "practice" for live $1/$2, and last night I also dropped in to the .02/.05 tables. AMAZINGLY almost all of those were 20%-25% vpip average (or less!) which I find really surprising, all these morons who are still 24-tabling and playing extremely nitty (and exploitable, LP MIN-raise steals ftw + floating non-Ace non-King flops for the Turn steal!) but considering most of my opponents seemed to be playing <10% vpip how can they not realize they are no longer generating tons of VPPs by simply folding 90%+ of hands?

Weird. You'd think these rake changes woulda loosened up the tables so 30%+ vpip would be the new "average" average for micro tables. (obv. the .01/.02 were still 30%-50% average, but one level higher and it's nit city... still? wtf...)
