I'm done with Abs pretty much for good. The [censored] BBJ was tough to swallow but taking away the free 150k entry for elite VIPs was the killer. It's painful because everyone there sucks. There are less than half a dozen decent aggressive regs - Marlene is the only one off the top of my head I haven't seen mentioned.

I heard they were gonna fix this from my VIP guy... might have been lying though.

I'm PWHITTINGTON on there. I have trouble vs Management and a few others.

I had reached the highest VIP level at Abs and after I cashed out my entire bankroll, I got a phone call from them with some kind of invitation to free tournaments and a huge reload bonus. I told them that I'll not return to their site unless they skip the BBJ, because the rake in several pots reachs a level above 20%. Maybe if they loose more regs and if they receive more responses of that kind, that they will change it. But it's doubtful.

Some other players from Germany asked me what to do - they knew I was a reg there - and I told them what I did and why I did it. I still wonder what other regs are thinking that keep playing there. Of course as a European player, I have more alternatives to choose from than American players.

The rake is gross but it still seems ok with rakeback and bonus. I'm paying about 15% less rake than I would at party. This is only over about 5K hands though so I'm still not really sure. I also haven't played party since their new reward system so I'm not sure how much it is worth.
