Hello,
I have been playing online poker sinds 2002.
As most experienced players i started at pokerstars, did very well there managed +$127.000 over a period of 2 years.
Back then it was great playing, like the main tournament $215 buy had 500-700 players ( mostly good ) but then came the big poker boost and in no time i had to beat like 5.000 players in that same tourney!
My streak ended and i could only manage a few nice results in live events so i kinda stepped away from online poker in 2005 and stopped all playing in 2007.
Last year i tried a comeback at pokerstarts but dear me, you have more chance winning the Euro Millions twice then makin a final table. So no big comeback for me!
2 Hours after the tourney started new players was still popping up left , right and center!? Breaks at the weirdest times and no one could tell me when what or why?
so yes i quickly emptied my account and deleted the whole thing! after a few hit and misses i now found a small room with good Gtd tourneys and luckely only 1 hour late reg if offered. But the players are weak and the numbers are good
Personaly i would prefer no or maybe a max of 15 mins late reg.
Are there more players that started out back in the good ol days and are now finding it hard to even make a final talble?
I was a regular in the top of the pokerstars tournament leaderboards from 2002 upto 2004 but when i now look i cant see any of the 'Hot Shots' from my time!
