Another Huge Wait List





























Curiously I just heard this apt quote today. One time is an incident. Two times is a coincidence. Three times is a trend. And here the third time is the charm. So prepare for my narration on this ridiculous wait list, which happens every day.

For the past three nights the wait list, when I join, doesn't stand a chance to make it to the table in a reasonable amount of time. Not in this day and age of instant gratification. Apparently the cool thing to do is join a wait list or twenty and turn off your computer and go to bed. Because when the big dogs finally leave the table there is a flurry of activity including reserved spots being instantly ignore. Or even sitting at the table then leaving before a single hand is dealt. Which is really stupid since that means you are connected to the server, waited an hour to play at this table and you changed your mind. Must have been a rage table to play on. Those do require a lot of thought.

6:55pm Notice the position in the lower left. I'll get back to him. Typo. The l and n keys aren't close.
7:01pm One of the big dogs wants to move the game to a new table. Having a million chips isn't enough. And the wait list of AI feeders has insulted his intelligence.
7:04pm He's only got 117k because he banked, you moron! I'm familiar with the concept of banking. You gain a huge amount of chips, you leave and rejoin at the minimum. Now if you're talking about this table it absolutely doesn't work because you still have to wait for the huge AI wait list to get burned off before you can sit again. There is a bit of evidence that they were talking about this table. And a bit of evidence that these positions are playing multiple tables.
7:08pm Bad grammar in caps lock. But one of your table mates said something curious. I saw. I saw your bluff. No you didn't. A bluff implies that you bet and weren't called. Which means that your cards weren't shown. Now there is an option on PS to show your cards on PF (PokerFrauds.) But you didn't do it at this table. And now that I think about it I've only ever seen players show their cards at a game I'm playing at. Never on one I'm observing. Hmmmm.
7:16pm Kinda makes me think they're talking about this table. And we have a threat to call Gabe, who is a moderator that ruined their fun previously. Weird.
7:717pm This was the third correction of a typo. Hey everybody! Real person here! I made a mistake and corrected it. Once is an incident. Twice is a coincidence. Three times is a trend.
7:21pm hummin posting in CAPS LOCK after not previously doing that. Shift change? Admin lost in knowing the history of the table?
7:22pm It's getting close to half an hour with barely a dent in the wait list.
7:36pm Only one of two players from the original table left. Stagnant chip growth. Hardly ever calls. From the United States and posts, "met boll." WTF?

7:39pm

And there we have it again. The trendsetter. Three nights in a row WHERE A POSITION FROM THE WAIT LIST tells everyone to sit out via screen picture. If the table was going to be shut down completely it would be so much easier to have a moderator message show up that says, "This table will be closed in 15 minute." This is supposedly a real person that took the time to join the wait list and wants the remaining (AI) to sit out.

The wait list is protection for those million $ chip stack since observer chat is locked down. Nobody is ever going to get to play against them and call them out on the bullshit.

This is one of those things that the math is definitely on my side.
