    Obviously I don't really know how much it would help or how hard it is to code though - speculating really. Just in general I've sort of always been in favor of making changes which are one time things (i.e. don't require consistent/constant maintenance), especially if they end up being a profound improvement to whatever is in question. Again, just guessing really though about that being so.
    I don't know much more than you about the software really Arun. Was probably speculating where I should not have been but Frank asked me directly and felt I had to answer.

    I am sure Drew is assessing all the suggestions though

    I figured it must be true or you guys would have jumped on him already. Anyways, I have already posted about it more times than I want to, so

    And on the 4th day, the ginger blob broke even, and called it a winning day. The shills and mods ignored it, and it was so.

    It's not up to the mods to check every claim people make. And personally, I genuinely do not care at all about people who want to say they earn more, bet more, win more or have a better house/car/life than reality. Let them if it helps make them happier! Should have no effect on you or me.

    And my opinion on tailing is that only one person chooses the amount and clicks bet confirm. Everything is on that persons shoulders for their own choices from there.

    If he was obviously trying to cheat anyone, or sell picks, or was even just generally sleazy mods would pay more attention.

    Honestly, if SBR moderated the forum as heavily as some of you guys have been asking for I'm pretty sure posters like Rudy and yourself would be yelling the loudest it was bad, and be among the first to leave!

    He was very talkative while he was hitting everything then when he got spanked, he refused to re buy and he left like a little sissy.

    No it isn't. I did it for you with this guy and you have ignored it or minimized it. Once again, this is a sports betting site. What car you have or what chick you hooked up with is irrelevant and it's a pretty pathetic analogy. I don't expect you ban him, although you have infracted and banned posters for MUCH less, but the least you could do is not act like he's just like any other harmless poster who posts a thread about a play.

    who the hell are ya'll talking about?

    im too lazy to go read the rest of this bullshit thread....

    bottom line is the title is misleading....

    "Poker is back..."

    add the correction to the tiltle: "32 Percent of Poker is Back"

    it's a 68 percent reduction in payouts being shoved up our back doors with no lube....

    ironic that it's 68, as that figure is world-renowned as the "speed limit for sex".....

    as everyone knows, you hit 69, you eat it......

    Now look at the payouts daily LOL .... and 50 players so tournaments will take more time
    Ouch,ouch and more ouch . If this makes the poker players here happy then kudos
    but no way could I play that long in those tournaments for 90 minutes and get my KK cracked by J9 off
    and land in 6th for 30 betpoints (that also then needs to be rolled over)


    yeah I havent played in a couple years with the stock market going crazy there has been zero time. I was going to dip my toe
    back in but the thought of playing for an hour only to come in 9th, when basically bingo starts because of blinds being so high....no thanks

    I know its only pizza points but I miss the days when the top 20 got paid. At least you were rewarded with a few pizza points for playing for an hour. Anytime I have won a tourney it took a bunch of bingo going my way late or getting run over with cards in the last 5 hands.

    well the tourney costs nothing so maybe just pop in try 5 all ins and if you double up then play or if you dont who cares. Sounds terrible but I dont see how else its worth playing with this structure.

    bah I sound like that bitching guy complaining about free things... but is time free?

    Man, I sure am glad poker is back. All the positive talk, everybody being nice to each other, no collusion or flipping go'in on. And I'm sure the SBR quality poker client software will be fair and impartial to all.

    Considering how valuable my time is. and it has gotten much less valuable as I have gotten older, I have always believed that the only way to play SBR tourneys is to take big chances in the hope that I get knocked out early or I get a lucky big stack. The new format just magnifies that strategy for me. btw, put that in your poker notes on me.

    Having said that, I do understand why SBR is cutting down on it's poker payouts. It seems to me that when I first went SBR Pro, poker was much more popular, more games going at any time, more players, etc... I am sure SBR has seen these decreasing numbers and are reacting accordingly. I don't know how they can grow poker (maybe they'll just focus on Sports Betting) but I do know that cutting down on payouts and games isn't good for the future of SBR Poker. If SBR Poker isn't growing and bringing in business then it only makes sense for SBR to let poker die and focus on their core competency (90's business consultant buzzword). It's too bad, but I get it.

    Best of Luck

    Rudy is one of the only poker players (yes losing players are players too) that I think could manage to lose all of his money in a live game AND get his ass kicked after.
