Hey Wilco
The blind skippy thing is over. I am waiting to play the higher limits now. I have the bankroll, but not from the blind thing, but because I play a lot. The only problem is that I am not goinng to play the bigger games until the other bugs are fixed. I don't want the system to 3bet me on the river in 10/20 although I actually mean to check-fold.
And that's going to be just like the blind skippingn thing. I thought about it many times, regardless what people like you think. There are but 2 options, or perhaps 3 (reporting the players). But to report a player does not work out efficiently enough while you are playing and it's happening at your table. It's because you still lose money against such players who are taking advantage of it. Your correct move would be report the player and wait until the bug is fixed unless you have so much money to burn that you don't bother if such things happen at the table.
Question 2: If you go to Laughlin or play in Vegas in a 1-4-8-8 game, there are 2 open seats at the table, one is just after the button, and one is just before the big blind. You have 2 options to sit down. If you sit down behind the button (Station Casinos rule), then you get cards without having to post. But if you sit down at the other seat, just before the blind, then of course you will be forced to post right the first hand you play.
I am sure an honest guy like you will not sit down behind the button but choose the open seat before the big blind, so then you can post right there, right? Or even better: You will choose to sit down behind the button but tell the dealer that you will sit-out until it's your turn to post, so you can watch the players , right?
Don't tell me such things. I am not here to apologize for anyhting. And I don't want to make it look as I am Mr Nice Guy, either. I just wanted to tell you how things are like. And I still don't see it as cheating. It's in the responsibility of the site to make sure that such plays are not possible. And if they still are, just like the auto-fold or automatic raise-by-default bugs that are really aggravating at times, then it's a sign that there are bugs that need to be fixed. Still, I am glad that this is over. Now we can have a straight game, finally.

I totally didn't see that he actually responded in this thread.
Wow. You should be proud of yourself.
fwiw - it's okay to not post in low-stakes games live when you are joining the table. But if you constant moved tables without paying the blinds then you would get noticed and action would be taken.
In fact, if you just left the one table before you got to post then you probably wouldn't be viewed to favorably.
I'm extremely disappointed that WPEX didn't take action against you and that you are still allowed to play there.
