anybody currently playing on UB is an idiot. anybody playing there "because the games are soft" is playing right into their hands. can't you see you should boycott UB indefinitely? folks this is your livelihood and our game. if you do not take a stand here you will face this again...and again...and again....and oh look, they're doing another two-month investigation while they see if the internet poker community will just forget about the whole thing.

what happens when someone with real skills gets one of these accounts? there are at least 50 people here on 2+2 who would have the sense and skills and patience to win "only" 9ptbb/100 for life, a few hours here and there, in the higher-stakes games, 1-2mil a year real quiet, no one could prove anything. everyone will just wonder if it's Prahlad. how do you know that's not happening right now? how do you know one or two of the respected high-stakes players in HSNL doesn't have one of these accounts? you don't.

if you don't send a loud and clear message to the poker sites not to mess with you, you will put yourselves out of a job.

UB will draw this out a bit, find there were "discrepancies" or some bull**** like that, and refund the affected players their money. they'll say "the site is secure now. we've identified the security breach and taken strong measures verified by an independent party (that would be the party they held on their yacht) to prevent this from ever happening again." they will lie. you know this. you expect them to lie. why are you still playing there?

these people do not care about you or the game. all they care about is revenue. they have made that abundantly clear by ignoring this for two months. there is no "oh but" here. blatant cheating was identified, proven statistically, and reported to the site. and they did nothing. they do not care about the integrity of the game unless it affects their bottom line. you shouldn't play on UB. none of you should. send the message: sites must protect the integrity of the game or suffer real consequences. and then tell all your friends UB really is rigged. after all, that's just the truth. lobby them to stop playing there. if you take this crap you deserve to lose.

danke sehr. jetzt wo ich es lese, seh und versteh ich es. ich versuche derzeit vom button meine range etwas zu erweitern und die anderen positionen etwas zu korrigieren, bzw tighter zu spielen, wie empfohlen. wahrscheinlich hab ich es da einfach übertrieben...
