Stars 25-50 Shortstackers

[raptor517]

stars should offer deep stack tables like full tilt has. everyone could sit those with min buyin 100x. would be lots nicer that way.

Stars should also have a bet pot button. And they should also stop being rigged

Something stars(and other sites) should certainly do is to increase the time you have to wait before sitting in with smaller stack then you left with. I doubt this has big impact on their rake(increasing min. buyin might have and thats why they dont do it) income. However it would improve the situation if players would have to wait at least 90mins before comming back.

Also I dont know, but id guess shortstacking is somewhat harder in shorthanded tables. At least it seems like they prefer the games with 7+ players. So adding 6max 25 50 could be a decent idea.

This is a great point.

if we could get stars to raise the min buyin to 30bb like it is in a casino then the problems would be lessened.

besides all the bad manner stuff they do with the hit and running, i just dont like the fact that i cant play optimally against all the big stacks because i have 3 shortstacks behind me who are just going to shove, but the other big stacks dont adapt to the shortstacks so they are playing optimally vs me. they totally ruin the dynamics of the game and make it more boring than it would be normally

if you think that is the most unethical thing in online poker you are beyond naive.

I personally hate short stacks also. But what you're claiming is that deepstack poker is the only way to play... There's really nothing anyone can do about it so you just have to adapt.

[Daut44]

im not claiming deepstack poker is the only way to play.
im just saying 20bb is too low for a minimum buyin.

Stars could add tables where you had to buy in full (or some minbuyin like 60BBs), and then players could choose where they wanted to sit.
