    ?? U think im not trying to play them? And as for not playing if u dont have an edge, half of these guys havnt even played vs me, yet they stil refuse action. I could understand if they have played me and been unsuccesful, but most of them have just seen the fact that im a reg and simply will not play regs. Joke.

    Hit n run? The only time I will sit a 6max table is when there is one player for HU action, and the only time i will leave that table is when more players come to sit. I cant get action as it is, you think I would hit n run?? I would play you or anybody on this site all day. So yea, thats not hit n run.

    Really good blog by Phil Galfond that highlights issues like above, enjoy.

    I have used the term bum hunting in the past as something i have done but only meant it as table selection in ring games, but i never refuse to play anyone, if table breaks i will normally be the last to leave, real bum hunters takes chasing fish to a new level though

    They're not all as dumb as pokerkinga. ;)

    A guy called 'ladyfingers' posted an open invitation to anyone to play a prolonged HU game v him @ 50 or 100nl.........

    He was also fed up of the lack of proper action.

    Maybe you should play eachother.

    you would think so but no :/ he refused me action at 200nl about 2 weeks ago. I dont see why Sky cant have a system like on stars where u can only sit one empty table. So if ur a bumhunter, be prepared to share your fish with every other bumhunter.

    Thank god people in poker have the freedom to play whoever they want, Absolutely nothing wrong with refusing to play somebody.Its common sense not to play other regs.

    By the way, regs refusing to play you is good news for you. You will not have enough of an edge to be profitale against any decent winning heads up reg at 50 NL to 200NL..

    Poker players have the right to invest their money in games where they think they will gain a positive return long term, after the rake in deducted. Bookmakers lay odds to punters, not each other. Otherwise all the bookmakers would go broke in the long run, because any edge wont be significant enough to be profitable long term. Good gamblers, almost always gamble when the edge is in their favour.

    People would be better served having more of a business mentality when it comes to poker, rather then an ego driven mentality.

    You make a perfectly valid point that people have the choice who they wish to play.

    However with the limited table spawning here (I think there is an upper limit at the HU Cash tables) surely you must agree on a one table limit per person alone at a table?

    It is if you walk once a third player sits after you doubled up. You are right though , one hu table should be open at each level and they should only spawn when tables are full.
