    <p>Those crazy Chinese will stop at nothing to marginalize every thread of western culture. I loved reading this article, which was excellent and very informative, but it probably surpises very few who read it with the exception of the small amount of pocketfivers who don't live in their moms basement, play wow, and get high on the regular. </p>

    <p>I really enjoyed this article.  I completely agree with everything Lee said here. It's simple to adjust to a nit, and way easier to play against in the long run than unpredictable agressive psychos.</p>

    <p>I think this is a bad way to view them. they were born there, do not have freedom, and GRIND to make ends meet. now i havnt been grinding for rakeback for half a decade, but to knock on them for doing what 1.) is smart and 2.) what they need to do to live, would be wrong. </p>

    <p>I'm seeing quite a few of these at stars 10/25.Have logged lots of hands and am yet to see anyone of them making any money.It's like they play with their cards face up.I call any of their shoves with QQplus,or AKos plus.Seems to be working.</p>

    <p>I wonder if people think the Chinese just recently invented bonus whoring?  I'm unsure why this is even an issue, there are people of all nationalities who have been doing this for a long time.</p>

    <p>Yeah, says the American with 300-400 years of history and culture to the Chinese with 5-6k.  </p>

    <p>This is glossing over a few details.  For one on PS they used a number of different cities in China and the US for the last several years and are now using cities in other countries.  Just last night I asked support to have one of them be a little more specific about their city (their city field said CHINA).  After support handed the matter (about 10 mins later) the city was updated to MOSCOW.</p>
    <p>These players are no longer on FTP.  I'd like to hear an FTP rep chime in as to why.</p>
