That donkey is still around? I wonder if he looked on 2+2 if he'd get a headache at all these concepts he doesn't understand.

Jamie Gold must really have an inflated ego. Buying in for 500k at THIS table? It's like he's trying to lose his money.

All you're doing is reducing variance, so if players are up for making a deal to do just that, then they should always run it 3 times.

They are allowed to run it 3 times. But what's wrong with just twice? If they want I'm sure the producers will let them put the cards into PokerStove and split the pot exactly according to their equity which would reduce the variance to the minimum but what's the fun in that?

Runnning twice is kinda lame imo, and also what I don't get is players who iso themselves w/ big raise in a field of limpers and then split the pot among themselves somewhere in the hand, this has happened a few times if i remember correctly. Wouldn't you be pissed if you were one of the limpers and shouldn't that not be allowed?

Now all they need to do is release all of the seasons on DVD.

If you folded your hand you have no more interest in the pot. What the remaining players do after that has no effect on you.

Lol don't you understand this is happens all the time in games where people work together to isolate people's money by raising hard against each other. Two players could easily raise hard against each other w/ marginal holdings and split everyone elses money that's in no way accepted.

That's called 'collusion' and banning pot splitting there won't help since the players can just split the money after the game is over if that's what they are doing.
