Why does Pstars cap the number of cash games you can play at 12 tables, yet they let the annoying HevadKhans of the world play 45 sngs at a time??? Any chance they will raise this cap to 16 or 20?

its simple biz. when u play MTTs/SNGs, u pay rake with ur entry fee. they (the site) doesnt care how long it takes, or if u sit out for that matter. however, in cash games, money comes in from the rake. if u sit out, u plug up the rake. if u take a long time cuz ur playin too many tables, ur pluggin the rake. if u sit out, u increase the chance that the table will close down cuz ppl hate playin short, hence plugging the rake.

understand yet?

I hear ya and I definitely understand. I'm just wondering if there was ever a thread where someone from pokerstars addressed why 12 was determined to be the optimal max instead of 9 or 14.

And if there is any chance for that number to ever increase.
