Default Lol played the 25/50 table today just to kill some time

So I had some time to kill and the 15k/30k table were all full so I decided to sit down on a 25/50 table.

I do remember that a lot of ppl went all in when I had very little chips and played those tables but at this table there was not a single time in 30 min where at least one or more ppl went all in.

Now I really don't care that much anymore about those tables considering the max. chips on these tables isn't even covering the blinds on the 15k/30 table but I really wonder how anyone can learn how to play poker like this even if they want to.

If I was just learning how to play and keep getting on tables where everyone just goes all-in all the time I probably would get so frustrated I'd quit poker or go to some other site where ppl actually try to play poker and not roulette.

As i said I only played for 30min and maybe that was an exception but I think if Op66 or other Everleaf network sites want to attract more players they should come up with an idea to get ppl to actually play.

They should do away with that dang reload button....Or at least limit the buy-ins. They wouldn't play so lose... IMO....I earned my chips the hard way...I just don't wanna hand 'em over to 'em.

Nice Kingcard. Maybe I was just sitting down on an unfortunate table/time.

As long as beginners can go to a table where normal poker is played its all fine.

This is all too common. I started with this site back in October 2009, and it was no-where-near as bad then. Now many of these tables are almost pure bingo. I have enough chips to play higher stakes, so it does not bother me directly, but as user9 said, it will be hard to get new players, with this junk-play happening right at "the door". What I mean is... All new players coming in, getting the free 1K, can only play at these, or lesser tables. Even if they start low, they will surely try to work up through these levels.

I have also taken to playing on another site, which could be described as "completely un-level poker.com". There you have to wait 5 minutes between reloads. As you can imagine the play was of a much better class.

Before the mods remove this, I am not saying you should go there. Quite the opposite, play here! But the 1000 chip instant rebuy needs to change, if this site is not to be considered a complete joke.

I so agree that they should do something about this instant reload. Used it myself to get started on the old site. But only about three times , enjoyed the raising of chips in your account day by day. Now that's a high.Like when u start your first savings account and after hard work reach your 1st thousand.hate bingoooooooooooooooo, !!!!
