Was there something in particular that made you come back? That could be drawing other people in with money to throw away.

Nothing specific for me--I think the new deposit thing is part of it. Potentially the weather changes in some of the US might too (getting colder and wintery, so less outside activities) and ESPN always seems to have something on with poker these days.

Player pushing A7o over a 2% preflop raiser.

We might've seen the same hand. I saw that play today. Preflop raiser had KK. A7 pushed all in on a flop of T87. Yay river seven!!

Horrible players are to be found at NL25.

I play 25NL and I know what people mean when they say that all of the 25NLers are horrible--I readily admit that I am--but STILL . . . there HAS been a huge difference in the player quality down there. I mean, some are horrible because they're nits, slowly bleeding their blinds away, getting pushed around by good players, and folding everything except the nuts. They struggle, but at least they can read the board. Recently there seems to have been an influx of raging doofuses, pushing all in with the ass end of a straight on a flush board.

If you have been playing @ Stars lately and did not notice that the level of play has gotten softer then you have a problem because it has been very obv.; and not just @NL25.

[/ QUOTE ]I think the $50 tables have been terrible since they upped the table max...they are good right now though. I played some $25 last night and it seemed the same as a couple months ago, regs are too tight, donks donate and their's lots of them.

Deffinately agreeing with chargers that the table selection since 24 max has blown goats. I havn't played in 2 days though so I dunno how it is right now.

I've noticed this too. Especially when I was at one of Berge's tables for a while the other night. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Actually other than making a few dollars what I have really noticed is that my FPP's are accumulating quite a bit faster than normal. Maybe it's time to grind a bit.

Just pulled in 5 buy-ins in 1000 hands. There I was hoping I'd taken my game forward to a whole new level. Damn!

(Still, it was pretty obvious. I'm running at 10PTBB/100 12 tabling so far this month! The crap people have been calling with has been *amazing*.)

Whatever the cause, long may it continue!

Is this really noteworthy? This happens at every single level.
