I wouldnt support a site that forces me to only play one table, especially considering its only because the founder can't multitable so is pushing his bias on everyone else.

Tuff, I admire your enthusiasm, but I have a serious question for you.
.

Do you think when a FTSE100 company is forced to drop 85% of it's revenue that it might have had every top legal mind at it's disposal looking at legal ways to offer poker in the US?

They were looking for a way to offer poker in a way that profited them.

I am proposing a model that has no rake, membership fee, etc. The players on the site pay nothing... ever.

That is not a model that the best minds in the industry can appreciate. There is no way for the company to make money.

But, I am not interested in making money, I want the perfect rake free poker site.

Big difference.

Keep thinking. Do you think anyone would choose to play at such a site as I have outlined?

So far no one has said, "pipe dream or hallucination, I would really like to play on this site were it to come about."

Amazing. The tight grinders on here would rather keep the status quo of playing on FTP and Stars with other 2+2 grinders at 10 tables each than play at a real poker room with real players but only be playing at one table just like a real poker room.

Absolutely amazing.

That is ok, I frankly don't want any of you anyway.

Onward and downward.

Even if the site is full of recreational fish and was completely free of rake ?

You sir, are stupid beyond belief.

Tuff - One wonders if you are interested in selling anyone on your idea because your change in tone implies the opposite.

Nah, I love my plan (such as it is) and genuinely am interested if anybody here would like to play at a site such as I have described.

So far, apparently, nobody from here would be joining us.

There is, of course, the credibility problem. Nobody actually believes such a site could come to be. But it could.

There is a catch, but not an onerous one. And, more importantly, not a legal one. But I am not revealing how this might work here. At least not now.

I guess that the 2+2ers are not good test subjects for any concepts not directly decended from Party Poker 2004.

How can you be so old and still so stupid? This is the dumbest idea I've ever heard, please start this poker room so we can all LOL at your massive failure.

Tuff - what are you waiting on before you elaborate fully?

Get this show on the road....

OK, I will bite. Why is this a bad idea?

Would you not prefer to play at least one table of your several at a zero rake site full of fish?

If not why not. Do you hate money?

This is a great idea...

I would definitely play.

Good idea, and hope it works out!

Sorry, everyone here thinks this is an awful idea. No need to burden you anymore with the senile thoughts of a stupid old man.

Who would have thought the opportunity to play poker online for absolutely zero costs would be the dumbest thing a poker player could do.

I guess I am just out of touch. I will immediately report to my associates that this idea is a complete non starter with the experienced poker crowd on 2+2.

sigh.
