I didn't say it was us against them but what sense does it make that if I am an elite that if I wanna play a bunch of smaller buy in wsop tourney's I can't get travel fee's most of the smaller events are televised any way and stars could still have their little ad about harry Jones got to win 600k in the 2500$ wsop preliminary tourney for free just for playing at stars and earning a million fpp's. I think you also should reasonably conclude that most donkey type recreational players know about the fpp program and really could care less they don't have 10 hours a day to play poker and try to rack of fpp's and they know they would never get there. I have even seen donks talk about fpp's in chat it just doesn't affect them 95% of player's or maybe even higher aren't there to make a profit they are there to have fun gamble they also know they aren't earning 1 million fpp's in a year. Do you really think donkey Joe is gonna deposit a 10k roll and try to 24 table 100nl? Hell no he has no idea you can even play 3 tables. Be a little more realistic.
Yes we as players are here to get the max for our play. It is great for us to work with poker stars and help keep the idiots flowing but lets face it all these sites dropped the ball big time with the unlawful gaming act. If they would have dumped money into stopping that crap and would be dumping money into that now we would be better off. They do nothing to get it legalized in the U.S. which I can tell you will do Way more for your win rate than than harry Jones winning the 1500$ 6 max event with an entry he paid for with E$.
I am sorry but I do not and will never feel bad for taking any thing a company like poker stars offers to give me nor do I or would I feel bad about getting some thing out of them. They make tons of money and if the bottom falls out of online poker tomorrow you are the one that will be hard up not them. They are great for customer service and I love to play there but please don't feel sorry for them. I also don't disagree that they offer the best deal although I do think that Fulltilt is very close (I don't play there).
So in conclusion I say we all give up our fpp's and let stars use that money to get online poker legalized in the U.S.
