Lee, I know many people are worried about people sitting out games they don't like. I don't think this is a big problem, because if people want to be specialists those games are available. However, if Stars feels it will be a problem, you can have a modified time charge instead of a rake on these games. Take 25 cents/player/hand instead of a rake for the higher games and less for the lower games. This way, there is a disincentive to sit out games you don't like without the drastic penalty of a forced ante every hand.

Hi all -
We don't expect to have a problem with people sitting out certain games. Note that if you really want to play (e.g.) alternating rounds of limit hold'em and razz, it's easy enough to fire up one table of each.

If we do have a problem, we'll figure out something then, but I expect that the HORSE games will be well attended and you won't really have serious issues with lobbying.

Best regards,

Are you planning to get stand alone tables of Razz? That would be awesome.
