frankly the bad 10/20 players tend to either be weak tighteys like you find in a casino (dandaniels and a couple others) or the bad LAGs and LPs that play the 5/10 game as well. I think finding a good 10/20 game on AP is a lot harder than on FTP, so i mostly only play 5/10 on AP and play most of my 10/20 on FTP.

im not sure in what universe dandaniels is considered a "regular".

maybe im reading into the definition more than i should. regular should be someone who multi tables and at least makes some attempt at winning. dandaniels is just a tard who plays often.

spideruno and noles are good examples of multitabling midstakes regulars who arent very good, but who are good enough to not lose a ton.

I assumed when he was asking who the bad regulars are, he meant the guys that suck that play quite often. I have played against dandaniels quite a few times and he is totally horrible.

Now we could make a big list of guys who are multi-tabling regs on AP, and lots of them probably aren't terrific players (myself included), but even a good player usually doesn't have a huge edge on them. I think the question posed was who are the regular fish to look for when sitting at a 10/20 table, and IMO it is mostly the same guys who play 5/10 with a few other weak tighteys that don't play smaller. Oh and thepimpjen when you are lucky enough to find an open seat to her left.

Bonus structure changed to $5 for 30 points.

They say they plan on offering more reloads instead, so maybe a good thing for people who are always out of bonus.

I can't clear it fast enough, especially when you add in the VIP bonus every month, lol.

Are they taking less in the rake then? If they don't I'll leave them because I can not beat the rake there at 3/6.

Damn :-(

Why would thet take less rake? That wouldnt make much sense.

I'm not thinking about as raising it to the 30, I find I'm a happier person when I think about it as a 5 month promotion at 20 that finally ended.

Played at a table with someone last night for all most an hour and half where the only reasonable explaination for his play was either a hacked account or a stolen credit card. Was two to his left. He ran at -140 BB/HR while I was there and dropped $800 at a 3-6 table. Hello rent money
