To All,
I think almost every reg is now on board with how horrid these changes are for any high volume cash player on PokerStars. Most of us were astonished to not only see that no money was redistributed into the VIP program, but there was also a significant rake increase (5 handed) that was announced in a fashion to deceive players.
I think that we should plan a mass sit out on PokerStars for all limits like we've seen successfully done on Party, Pokerstars.fr, etc. It is important for the site to understand that we, the regulars who contribute the most to the site, don't appreciate being deceived or the rake raised on us simply because they feel they are the monopoly in the online poker world.
I am going to be in the US till January 2nd so I will not be able to participate but I figured we should try to get this done asap.
I say we plan this for January 1st at 12PM EST. Thoughts?
