you guys should really work on your games if you are concerned about 6.50 regulars cutting into your ROI.

Please do unveil a workable recipe for avoiding the regulars. Both $12 and $24 are filled with the regs, with the exception of maybe 3pm to 7pm PST.

I could use less regulars in the 6.50's they are killing me. It's sad how many regulars there are at the 6.50's I might have to move down.

Thats irrevelevant, anyone who seriously multitables pretty much always is atleast breakeven or positive (or at worst slightly negative unlike many of the bad players) meaning that you make less money playing with them. There is no reason whatsoever that would make it better to play against regulars than random donkeys. It is always worse.

You obviously can't avoid all the regulars, but it wouldn't hurt to wait 5 or 10 minutes if you see a good player constantly registering for 6 or more SNGs. Even if someone only plays at the $6.50 level, their ROI will decrease with more regulars in the game.

I don't really mind any one particular player in my $12 games but when there are 4-5 players playing well on or near the bubble, it makes it tougher.

I don't want to be grinding a 10% ROI until I move up quite a bit higher in stakes.

I let anal people do the table selecting and avoid me, asumming they got past my donk act.

that way they get to play with sharkscope, lists etc. the kinda stuff they really like, and I get to be lazy, a natural for me.

win-win

are there that many regulars in the low limits on ftp. I hardly ever see anyone I recognize as a winning player on stars.

The $12's have some regulars with 10%+ ROIs, but there seems to be much less regulars than there are on Stars. Since there are less regulars, it should be pretty easy to avoid each other.
