so let me get this new WPEX thing straight

[greed]

I have a WPEX account but have never deposited on it. I was going to deposit as soon as they made histories on the hard drive.

With no names in the HHs, it looks like I'll never be depositing there now. Not being able to track anything with PT, or being able to even review my sessions, is absurd.

[elffaw]

Just wanted to say I am a big fan of the changes. I am glad the nits are pissed off. Big ups. Respek.

Well the numbers will speak for themselves.. if WSEX doesnt really grow then we'll know that they made the wrong move. If they do start growing then we know they made the right move..

[repulse]

I dunno. It doesn't seem possible for a change like this to inspire any significant growth -- the nature of the change is not particularly marketable. It is appealing to some 2+2ers, but it's not going to be the thing that drives a lot of traffic to the room.

If WSEX happens to hit some growth, I would look for another explanatory effect before I would ever consider attributing it to this.

The only people this update makes happy are the ones who think HUDonks are satan. They will never gamboool on the side with their hard-earned money. WPEX will learn that this is not the way you do things.

I don't like that each hand history is in a different file, I would prefer all hands played on a given table on a given date to be put in the same file as is done on PokerStars. Storing each HH in its own file is inefficient because files on a hard drive have a minimum size, the cluster size, which depends on your hard drive and how you've set it up. On my system the cluster size is 32 KB, and the hand history files have like 1 KB of data each, so that leads to a lot of wasted space.

I use PokerAce every day. I love it. It makes me money.

I never used it at Paradise, don't know that it even works there. I always made money at Paradise without it. (Looks like those days may be over, but that's another thread.)

I've never used PA at Wpex. If it worked there, I'd use it. It doesn't work there. Big deal. I'm not exactly crushing the game (LHE) there, but I'm doing okay, and with 100% rakeback I'm doing really okay.

Getting HHs occasionally by e-mail sucked. Not getting HHs at all sucked worse. Getting them on hard drive won't suck. I'd rather have player names in them, but I can live without them. 100% rakeback > player names.

If the IRS asks me who I lost all that money to, I'll give them a list of all the American Taliban in Congress who voted for the online gambling bill.

I'm still undecided on whether allowing HUDs on Wpex would be good or bad for me. I'm apparently completely opposite to most 2+2ers in that I usually make more money at tight tables than loose, so maybe a bunch of multi-tabling HUDbots or whatever they're called would better for me than the moron maniacs I'm encountering there now. But as long as my account balance is higher every Monday than it was the previous Monday, I'm not complaining.

I am complaining about the constant disconnects, however. I really wish they'd fix that.
