Some good...some bad

As related to my vent post about shortstackers, we have just received news that our preferred site has instituted some new rules that have given us a good dose of hope.  Which is a good and welcome thing always, but especially on the heels of so much break even results in this house in the past month and a half.  I mean, I'm raking it in at the 25NL, but those players are practically begging to give away their money.  Literally.  I watched a conversation/transaction occur at one of my tables just yesterday in which a tilting player insisted on giving away the rest of her bankroll to the first requestor.  Now, her remaining bankroll was something like $9.55, but still.  That's ten bucks for free and where else are you going to find that?  But back to the point, which is that the games are about to get closer to poker than slot machines for the first time in a while.  Hopefully.  We will have to see how it actually plays out.  And, while hope is an often dangerous thing, it is also very good and very refreshing.  I guess, spring fever helps the effervescence a bit too.  I say, bring it on.

  1. Like Split says, optimism is an important part of poker! I've been playing 50bb min tables exclusively since they opened, but I'm looking forward to widening my seating range. ;)
