    I hate to makes waves, but this heads up BS on stars is starting to really grate on me. Check this out:

    handed 100-200?
    Steve_Haris: oops
    Dealer: Game #17447354878: Axelf82 wins pot ($400)
    tjbentham: **** bet2win
    Dealer: bet2win will be allowed to play after the button
    tjbentham: sit out again steve
    Dealer: Steve_Haris has high card Ace
    Dealer: Axelf82 has a pair of Threes
    bet2win: it was just a suggestion
    Dealer: Game #17447369501: Axelf82 wins pot ($2398) with a pair of Threes
    Dealer: Game #17447377887: Axelf82 wins pot ($400)
    Vaga_Lion: why are we letting axel get hu
    tjbentham: axel u are unbelieveable
    deanrover6: steve sit out
    deanrover6: dont let axel ruin everything
    tjbentham: steve sit out
    Steve_Haris: k
    Dealer: Game #17447382904: Axelf82 wins pot ($800)
    tjbentham: axel this is such a big mistake
    deanrover6: we can email support
    Axelf82: ok i go
    tjbentham: yes
    Dealer: Hand cancelled, bets returned
    deanrover6: ty
    Dealer: A new game will start in 15 seconds
    Steve_Haris: i will sit out in 2 hands
    tjbentham: gl steve
    Steve_Haris: ok... he is gone

    Okay, first, Dean suggests emailing Stars support. What are they going to do? I mean, the table is designed for nine players, and Stars sure as hell will be slow in providing HU tables for high stakes players -- if ever! Is Stars going to start going to tables and telling people to sit out so these guys can play HU on a table not meant for it?

    It's hard to get action on these tables. It's so bad now that people are getting texted and emailed just to get asked to join a table and sit out. Alas, but WTF?

    Stars?

    I'm pretty sure he is this big fish that they all want to play. They have a big debate at 2+2 about it in the HSNL. They all sit out when he is gone.

    Haris isn't the point of my post. It is this HU BS. Really, guys, WTF? Are we players or sitters?

    The schtick is this: We tow the line. We are asked to "show respect" to fellow players who want to stack that poor bastard Haris out of his chips. Then, when the ugliness is done, we all get up and leave. No playing, just party to watching a rich fish really get fried.

    Now can we play poker? No shit, enough of the side show.

    I was watching as well...Why do you care? It doesnt concern you at all and the two of them had decided earlier on another table that they wanted to play headsup.

    It does concern me. None of the big money is there to play. They're there to block tables and block action so two and only two people can play.
