It's a d*ck move thinking you're entitled to a private game on public tables - especially if they don't have exactly six people and they think they can just ask people to leave when someone takes the empty seat - but I'd leave them to it if they explained what they were trying to do and were being decent human beings about it.
The way they speak to you here, the threat to collude, and that they seemingly haven't told you they're trying to have a private game, is really sh*tty.
If they spoke to me like that and one of their group is on the WL, I'd definitely be sitting out but waiting for the software to kick me off the table
Finally, I don't recognise the other names, but I'd certainly expect Rosiedog to know better than to make threats to collude, and to treat other players with more respect.
Like I said, I was quitting and clicked the leave big blind button, I told them this and then insults start`ed flying. So I unticked it and stayed longer.
They then took an age and let the timer tick down thinking it would bother me, I was multi tabling, so whatever.
I did shove AA pre when when it looked like I was quitting, I got paid.
Rosie got the last word tho, when she apologised, I clicked leave table.
Then she retracted the apology and it was too late , I was booted.
Sky really need a retract leave table request reversal button on the next software update.
It was an enjoyable episode and I look forward to round 2 tonight.
I would just follow them around sitting in every game they have going just for **** n giggles, keep timing out with junk and generally being a pain in the ****.
But then youre probably more mature than me.
Catch more flies with honey as they say....
I’ve had a couple of similar requests. I left on both occasions once I’d confirmed their locations were geographically similar.
I agree there is no need to be rude but unfortunately that is the way of the online world. There is a lot other tables at the moment and as regular players I think it is in our interest to make new players experience as good as possible in the hope that when the world returns to normal a few newbies forced into the game fall in love with it and stay.
Just wish sky poker would do their bit and lower microstakes take giving new players at least a chance to build a bankroll and a future in the game.
I remembered , this happened Friday night too, I just said ok and upped and left.
I don't care if these players are good, bad, want to play private games or whatever, the game seems to be becoming a bit more enjoyable again. And I think we all need that.
As an aside, the O8 games were dying on Stars, with a good proportion not running at all. It is great to see bigger fields again, and even better to see so many joining at the start and not picking the best seat just before late reg finishes.
Cheers
