Default Petition to end Monster BBJ tables

I'm getting fed up with the party "Monster Rake" promotion. Add party's lack of rakeback and you have the highest rake in online poker history! I'm sure they're very proud.

I don't think they're really attracting that many fish to play, but instead sucking up all the fish that would have played that limit anyway, making the non-monster tables rock gardens.

Fifty cents rake a hand might not seem much, but it adds up, especially at lower limits. At 2/4 LHE it equates to approx 1BB/100! That's for everyone, fish and shark alike. How would joe low limit amateur like to find out that they are paying an extra $10 an hour in rake just liesurely two tabling. Or a modest grinder getting their winrate cut in half. This has to stop!

Please, complain to party, sign this petition, boycot party, do something!

Boycot party until they start giving rakeback or get rid of the extra rake on the BBJ tables. Why should we have to pay for their crappy promotion? I know there are a lot of players out there that want this. Don't give up so easily 2P and 3P! If enough people do this they'll have to change!

Some of the low-stakes NLHE Monster rake tables are actually pretty good games, even with the higher rake. I still haven't found a 2/4 LHE Monster table worth playing.

Mostly I just stay away from the monster tables, but you have to admit, charging more rake for a jackpot that gets you *entry* to a tournament is genius. I'm sure they are proud of themselves.

What are you talking about. Rake?

Have you heard about the MONSTER freeroll. It's the biggest in history.

Marketing genius. The site will attract MANY new players through this fake freeroll promotion. Unfortunatly it doesn't benefit cash game players. Plenty of other sites.

From a pure business standpoint, whoever came up with this promotion is a marketing genius... Seriously...

Do you see why?
