    Ok guys, I dont know bout any of you but I'm really tired of sitting at a ring game on full tilt and out of 9 people at the table, there is only 1 or 2 full stacks. This is so much bs because it costs most of us cash grinders plenty of ev. I understand people short stack, whatever, but make a few tables of cash games where there is like a min. buyin of 80bb or something.

    So if you're a cash game grinder who is sick of losing ev cause of all the seats that these extreme shortstackers occupy, sign this post and we'll see if we can get something going.

    I couldn't agree more, but I doubt it will happen. I have been playing on Full Tilt for a long time and I recently moved my roll to stars because I don't see FTP doing anything about this. At least Stars has a ton of 50BB min tables running at the limits I play. To all the people saying adjust, it's not that simple. Short stackers ruin games, the reason I play cash games is because I want to play on multiple streets, not just getting it in preflop or on the flop, I would play sit n gos if that was what I wanted to do.

    I agree. Short stackers ruin games. We need some 50BB min tables and they don't have to be deepstacked.

    FTP is this not why you introduced cap tables for the people that don't want to play deep? Let them use the cap tables and give us full stackers our games back.

    Unfortunately, at $200NL, the level I played, there are not a ton of deep stack tables that run, and when there are regs flock to them

    When it was like 1 or 2 per table, you can work around that, but lately at non deep stacked tables its like 5-7, just getting out of hand.

    Yeah, moved over to stars, the combination of awful FTP support and short stackers drove me away. Left $200 on there to mess around with.
