So there is a guy sitting at one of the new HU tables on a $50 table and has $1344 in front of him.....but he has been sitting out for the last 10 hours and there is still a waiting list with 6 people on it.

isn't this one of the big reasons that Pokerstars didn't want to have HU tables? because people will just camp on them and no one can play.

They need to have a "sitting out" time limit... 10 minutes maybe.

anybody else thinks reading books on NL is over rated or am I the only iletorettee here!

I think the first years when learning the game reading books is important and very helpfull (right books ofcourse) but the books that are on the market today are so directed to masses that they will teach u nothing new if u are at advanced level. After reading Sklansky's newest NL book (theory & practise) about a year ago, I came to the conclusion that I already knew the concepts and It couldn't teach me much new.

[too eazy]

yeah i'm surprised they don't have a time limit like FTP.

and the only reason stars didn't want to allow headsu p tables is because when they had them before they caught brazilian drug dealers dumping 50k on their site rather than paying cash in real life as a means of money laundering

little known true fact.
