GBT repayment plans, http://t.co/LG2UBgRi

We ran hotter than we could have ever guessed (assuming the pokerstars stuff works out)

Just wow at that article

Ran hot is certainly right. After reading that article, I'm thinking that the Tapie group was shadier than FTP1.

"We only regret that such a deal would signal further consolidation of a poker market already dominated by a single player – an outcome that may raise antitrust concerns and that, in the long run, is probably not good for players and for the whole online poker industry.” --- GBT

I'd actually prefer it if PS controlled the market... they seem to be the only one trustworthy enough to do so... they doinitrite

mind = blown

moar! updates??? last post 11 hours ago... ahhh
the thread on 2+2 is way too long, can someone give cliffs, or is there nothing of interest past the 1st post?

I'm not certain this is good news, color me cynical, but news that GBT's bid has failed with the DOJ just means we're that much further away from the issue being resolved.

I read all 176 pages on 2+2 and nothing new to report. 176 pages of guessing.

I can't wait for pokerstars to have "run it twice".

Running it twice obviously lessens variance. From my point of view this is great because me sucking out when I'm behind doesn't feel nearly as good as me being sucked out on when I'm ahead feels bad.

what if you get sucked out twice?

90% of spree killings are attributed to running it twice and getting sucked out on twice.

I was playing 200NL one day and got it all in w/ AK vs AA against a fellow DCer. We ran it twice and I won both. It was awesome.
