When they say convenient, think of how the dealer always seems to be ready and there for the crackhead. It's that kind of convenient.

 

[eNTy]

i always forget but youre still playing on tilt.com right belgo ?

 

[LuckyChippy]

are you talking football or cricket?

Cricket. In cricket you can steal players from other countries even if they have played for their own country and they have pretty much no connection to the country they move to. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eoin_Morgan is a good example of this.

In football though once you represent your country you are stuck with them, you can't play for another team even if you're eligible through a parents nationality. You'll often find players that are for example half Nigerian half German (lol random example) who will refuse call-ups to the Nigerian side so that they are still eligible for germany should the chance arise. Germany being a very good side obviously.

Never played. What's the appeal?

You can play a shit ton of hands in a short time to reduce variance. Some people would only be able to play like 10 or 20k hands a month at normal tables (I assume Belgo is one of them) and 50k break-even stretches are somewhat standard as you get higher up. 3-5 months of breaking even would kill me I know that.

 

[LuckyChippy]

* shouldn't have said reduce variance. More reducing the effect of variance.

 

[BelgoSuisse]

Never played. What's the appeal?

No need to table select, no waiting lists, no table breaking up, sitout at any time if you want to review a hand/take a piss, ...

And volume wise, playing 4 tables of rush gives you about as many hands/hour as 12 normal tables. But it's easier to focus on 4 tiled rush tables than on 12 normal tables that you can't really tile properly.

The problem is that all the regs like the convenience of rush, so the games are tougher than the normal tables for the same stakes.
