Re(1): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By MadTiger on 11-11-2006 4:50 AM Shill Posters and the Online Douchenozzle Do you really believe those posters are actually real? People hire shills to stir up interest amongst the masses, why not online forums? etc.

Re(2): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By -E2- on 11-11-2006 4:52 AM A refined response, lol.

Re(2): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By DexterCain on 11-11-2006 4:53 AM seriously they're everywhere

Re(1): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By GambleAB on 11-11-2006 4:56 AM Yeah, I know a wee bit about the online business and I'm quite certain that the pros ARE playing for "100k's".

Re(3): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By MadTiger on 11-11-2006 5:05 AM I can offer the utmost in refinement. Was rather unnecessary, given the situation. Duel?

Re(3): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By beanie on 11-11-2006 6:02 AM I am sorry you lost E2.

Re(1): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By marinersjj on 11-11-2006 7:26 AM so what in the world happens when a "non-shill" sits at the table and wins a buyin (lets say, around 50k)... FTP is just paying that guy out of their pocket to "stir up action"?

Re(2): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By haleike on 11-11-2006 9:04 AM No Offense Brother, but if there are 50 players at the limit you play in a live casino that will clean your clock....I would play slots. Or switch the game or limit.

Re(3): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By MadTiger on 11-11-2006 9:11 AM I tried to hold it in, but LOL

Re(3): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By buchiYAYO on 11-11-2006 9:27 AM hahahahahaha, I heard that

Re(4): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By -E2- on 11-11-2006 5:01 PM Yes 50 players.

Re(5): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By jtown1010 on 11-11-2006 5:11 PM It's better to play the soft and silly $5-$10 NL holdem (boring) games far away from the average to good players. I can agree with that, but there are a lot of people playing for ultra-high stakes both online and live. 1 rreason why online sites may not be willing to pay a shill is that they probably don't need to, there are tons of players willing to play all kinds of stakes online, whereas live games are fewer and farther between. When you get 50K+ players on stars, the amount of customers a live casino gets pales in comparison, but I'm sure there are still guys who get paid to play(weather it be rake back or whatever) but probably not at the highest stakes.

Re(6): Shill Games and the Online Bamboozle In reply to By haleike on 11-12-2006 9:41 AM Well at the $150-300 and higher limit games, I am sure I would be the worst player.  I would stick to limits more of my speed or.....Seriously, I would just play slots. Wouldn't it be fairly easy for a Very Good NL player to rake in 100k a yr at 5-10nl?  especially in a tourist town like AC or Vegas?
