basically says it all. Amayo Group is the worst thing that has ever happened to PokerStars and it will only go downhill from here. I as a dane only got like ipoker other than stars to play at.. This is going to be the same as BF for Europeans. my god.. I'm so relived to see they did not mention Fixed Limit. But I have no doubt soon we will get an update that they are going to screw us FL people too.

*a lot of cursing words* amayo group *a lot of cursing* them *curse word* donkeys omg what the hell those *curse word* idiots and morons. go back to where ever you came from and leave pokerstars alone you greedy *curse words*

I think its rather the effect of the appearance of more and more regulated markets, where they have to pay taxes and this cuts down their profit, and they compensate with raising the rake.

I dont think they can raise the rake on FL at least not on the micros, the rake is too high there, and its even becoming less popular nowadays, if they raised the rake it wouldn't be profitable to play there anymore, and people would leave those tables.

thats what they want. They are increasing rake to kick out all the regs and make it impossible to be a winning player. they want to "even out the playing field" for the fish. and another reason is they want all the profit the regs "steal" from them.

I think the worst scenario would be if they buy partypoker, then the rake will surely go up
