I love nirvana and find it hard to take him on using my usual techniques. Must be a hard ass to bluff imo.

Mantis, the new thin skinned mantis

If people decide to troll one thread and approve of another based on personal likes/dislikes they are taking a subjective view - this is OK

If they want to say 'yawn' to you and 'wp' to someone else they are taking a subjective view - this is OK

Somebody, lets say Keys, exhibits some inconsistencies in views - this is OK.

If someone's staking request doesn't sell because of a few neg comments from a perceived clique member - this is OK. If the case had overwhelming merit it would sell.

What all everyone is whinging about is really hard to determine and appreciate

Bunch of over sensitive girls imo - this is not subjective - I'm honely tuckin on facts


Well pardon me for being pissed if Keys ever ruins my action ^.^

I'm not sure the, post whatever, it is your opinion, holds as much credit in the staking section as it does anywhere else. It certainly isn't a plus point for the forum if certain members perceive others as controlling the forum for their own purpose either, not that I think that.

@rfgqqabc

I don't think that it is the case at all that the more frequent posters can 'ruin action' for less frequent stakees. Continuing the Keys example, the fact that James might not think that a proposal represents good value isn't going to instantly put me off. I respect his opinion but there is plenty that we disagree about.  Actually I can't think of any stakes off the top of my head that we both had pieces of.

George2Loose's EPT London staking thread got flamed pretty hard for his markup but it still sold out. My 10k HU thread got some flack from The Camel and Dubai who are both respected heads up players and still sold out so I don't think its really fair to accuse people of killing your or anyone elses action. If you have the numbers to justify your prices then you'll definitely sell out and even if you don't, as long as its not for >£1k buyin you're likely to sell out anyway because blondes #lovethegame

people keep say killing their action like they have a right to sell out at inflated markup.


if someone questions your thread, your markup or you and they've bought pieces before you should have to answer them not just complain. If some complete and utter troll posts then it should just be deleted it's pretty simple.

I didn't say it had happened, i said it could. Not really been round blonde enough or looking at the staking forum enough. Tired of posting on this thread now, raised my points so I'll leave into the night, leaving a string of letters carved into the wall behind.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots
