I just noticed that PT has a preference to actually have 1bb = 1bb in NL games instead of 2bb. Is that new? Just think of all the confusion we can have now.

They've had it for a little while now.

Most people still use ptbb, but a lot of the people I see posting brags do it in bb/100, presumably to make their brags more impressive which is lame. It's pretty easy to tell if it's bb/100 or ptbb, though.
