As long as there are accounts that just need only to donk the game/rankings..
...the level at PokerTH won't get any better!

Does the operator care?

I'm asking for my husband..

Did you just make this post to make your "funny" avatar be seen? You're also called Luckymosa for a reason :D

Of course we care, but there is not much we can do as this style of play is not against Texas Hold'em rules. What we did is limitting games to 4 (or maybe 3, can't remember right now) per hour per player. This way players can't get 10th place and join the next game repeatedly.

You need to adjust your game to this kind of player. A good player should be able to do so ;)

This solution is a begin...until those Donkeys switch to their next account..

Keep on working it!

Ofc... :D

*edit
It would still make more sense to spend my time with players "who can at least play a little poker"...even if there aren't many of them ;) ...rather than with donkeys who probably suffer from "Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder"...

You didn't think this through, did you? What prevents them from creating the next account after we ban them?

So you're saying this was all just luck/bingo?
Come on... :D

Of course luck is part of poker, that's nothing new.

89 hands (from 51 to 140)...
So where were the skills of the others...in 89 (!) more hands?

89 more hands??? :shock:
Come on.

Think about "reads"..."timing"..."bluphs "..."patience" too.
May u will write "history in poker" too..once 'inna day...with my skills ofc...may... ;)

Keep on learning boehmi.. ;)
You are talented... i believe in you! 8-)

The question is not easy to solve, and I don't think there is a "technical" or administrative solution.

My first reaction is "don't play with them", but the fact is you can't: even if you avoid the plays they're in, you can't prevent them from entering yours...

Maybe a feature, looking like the "ignore player in chat" one, to prevent unwanted players to join in the games you set up could be a mitigation ? ( not a solution, because of the same annoying player changing account...)

Personally, I do use the "Ignore player" fort chat (which gives some funny chatboxes sometimes, as you can read reactions from an ignored player expression...)

Could be an idea to dig, even unperfect (you'd be relying on organising player's banned players list...).

I think that's what Lacrimosa wants to achieve with her "slow plays", and what's WEC actually does through invite-only plays...

Thank's you for your answer, thoughts, ideas and possible way for solutions.

Surely the "ignore button" would be the simplest solution to not even allow the "amok players" into an own game/table.

*edit

- minimum number of games
- minimum average of points

...integrate as possible solution for playing in the ranking games? ^^

- fun-tables for the "amoks" without ranking

-----

BBC protects his game
WEC protects his game
Monthly cup is protected

Only in ranking is anarchy...

My 5 cents:
By limiting play in ranking games either by a ban list, required minimal average after 40 games or any other way, may affect number of players at the platform. We, which mostly play BBC, Monthly or WEC, still need fresh blood to keep these (protected) games alive. In turn ranking games provide us with candidates we need so much.
I was annoyed by some players in ranking games enough I almost stopped playing them. As long as BBC, Monthly or WEC do not require members to play certain number of ranking games, I'll keep away from playing ranking - anyway I currently do not have much time to waste...

Keep calm, and enjoy every minute of your life as sooner or later life turns to be too short to waste it on complaining...
First and foremost I'm a sailor :evil: :evil:

It's all about increasing the quality in ranked play!

^^That only works because the admins take care of BBC, Monthly or WEC with invitations. ^^

You call it:.."complaining"...

I call it: "Exchange ideas together and look for ways to improve ranked games".
Also for "future fresh blood"!!!

Maybe this topic will help...πŸ€·β€β™‚

Thank's for your "5 cents"!!!
