My cat has a bad tell, she purrs when she gets pocket aces
I donât have a problem with chip buyerâs staying private BUT somehow it has to be figured into the rankings.If RP is going to rank playersâ skill by chip count,bought chips should be factored in.There must be a way to do it fairly. As for public access to a playerâs chip count and date of joining,itâs vital info to check, considering the all in yahoos who come in everyday just to test their luck and blow their free wad.Ya gotta respect the chips and any info on those who donât is vital in how one plays with them.I love researching an all in idiot and embarrassing them.But thatâs just me.
Greetings Mr.Nic & Replay Family,
After further review by the Refereeâs.
It has been determined that the field goal attempt was short and wide to the leftâŚ
My apologies Mr. Nic. You were quite right. That was me wondering around out there in left fieldâŚThanks for bringing me back safely Mr. Nic In full display for my Replay Poker Family. I publicly stand correctedâŚ
This will certainly make it much harder to complain about being referred to as Mr. MagooâŚ
hahahahaha
Hi,
It seems to me that it never fails, if I happen to win a big hand, in a tournament, I will get berated. I will be snarked at,that I must buy chips. Either because I am a woman, perhaps, or that, I possible could NOT possibly have the chip count, that I have. Well, I play an awful lot in the ring games, and the high level multi tournaments, and even the high level S&G tourneys.
When, my luck is frailling, I back off, and play, smaller S&G, and smaller multi tournaments.
I really do not understand, whether, I have bought chips or not, some people get their noses right out of joint. Especially, when I beat them, lol. I can win 400,000 chips, in a hand, in a ring game, or be the 1st one out in a 10K S&G.
I am with the people that say," lets, cover our chip stack", and then we will all be on the same level, for those, that think, the ranking, exposes, just how a person plays. I know that how a person play is in question, but that is not whether they have bought chips or not !!!
Just my opinion. For my Friends that take me for my value, Thank You, Very, Very Much !!!

RATHER THAN SEEING WHETHER SOMEONE BUYS CHIPS OR NOT-
IT WOULD BE MORE INTERESTING TO SEEâ
WHETHER RALPHIE BOY IS WEARING HIS TUTU-HIS SPEEDO-
OR HES GOING COMMANDO ON ANY GIVEN DAY!!
U JUST NEVER KNOW WHAT THAT CRAZY SQURL IS CHILLIN IN??
ITS USUALLY-
RATHER DEPLORABLE-4 SURE!!

It wouldnât âdivideâ anything. You still have to play against each other but as I stated originally, it adds clarity for people who want to learn and practices ACTUAL poker because chip buyers ignore pot odds and thats a crucial component of poker strategy.
I also donât believe people are âsupportingâ the site when they buy. People, especially gamblers, are self interested. They buy big stacks so they can run over small stacks for a cheap buzz.
Iâve not seen one logical argument against this idea outside of the site and its promoters finding the transparency too awkward for them to swallow.
This is one of those proverbial⌠âTo be⌠Or not to be⌠That is the questionâ. questionsâŚ
This issue is being batted around more than a confused and drunken Serena Williams trying to use a shuttlecock instead of a tennis ballâŚ
What Iâm curious about is⌠Why ? ? ?
Why would someone need, or want that kind of information about another player ? ? ?
Iâm curious, what is it"s intended use.
When Iâm in a casino, yes Iâd like to know. The information is important to me so Iâll know the possible tone of a playerâs disposition and what directions to try and steer any conversationsâŚ
So, on this one Iâm not able to think outside the box very wellâŚ
I personally donât care whether or not purchased chips are visible. It would cost about $4,000 to buy enough chips to get a rank of 150 or better, and a bad player would lose those chips almost immediately if they tried to play with them at high stakes, so I am not worried about thinking that somebody is good when they are not. My base assumption is that most players are not good, regardless of whether they purchased chips.
With correct bankroll management there is no reason to ever feel bullied by a bigger bankroll if you are playing within your own bankroll.
As far as showing the world each playerâs bankroll, it is unusual compared to real-money poker formats, but since there is no HUD or easily viewed hand history, rank and bankroll are quite helpful for making a preliminary guess about a playerâs skill. Maybe players feel bullied if they sit at a table where they are low ranked, but they can use that to their advantage by defying expectations, and they should not be scared if they are playing within their own bankroll. It also wouldnât bother me if all of that information was no longer visible because it is easy to spot a playerâs approximate skill level after 1-2 orbits anyway.
I am going to purchase Chips and donât think they should be visible to others I think it is a private matter I hear players talk about players buying chips because they cant win them I donât feel that way but I am buying chips tomorrow because I want to play on 50/100 table and think itâs a good way for me to do it Rank doesnât bother me I like the 50/100 table because all my friends are there well so much of saying about purchased chips I guess it really doesnât matter who knows I purchased them as long as I have a really good time I DONT LIKE PAY PAL NOR DO I HAVE AN ACCOUNT CAN I USE MY DEBIT CARD I WILL CHECK WITH ANDREW in the am nite all sammymorgan
Just for the record, I bought 100,000 just to try out the new âGet Chipsâ button!
I wanted to make sure it really worked⌠So I donât think that necessarily makes me a bad player,
but it makes me a sucker for a new buttonâŚ
Our Dear Micki,
It certainly does not make you a bad player or a sucker⌠Although it may have looked much better in my books ⌠If you just used that golden button to gift that $100,000 in chips right into my humble replay adobe âŚ:
If you do find that Catholic guilt too much tonight for you sleepâŚ
Replayâs open all Night⌠That golden button is tooâŚ
Would make a heck of a resume enhancer if you were applying for a spot a NORAD. âHey, whatâs this one do?â
Dearest RB,
I had actually thought of gifting to someone else, but this particular get chips but does not allow the option of buying for friends.
To buy for a friend, you have to go to the main get chips button on the dashboard page.
So, thank you for the suggestion, I appreciate your willingness to be a sacrificial recipientâŚ
Yours truly, Micki
Great point Warlock! Thatâs probably why I served in the army and they didnât trust me with a lot of buttonsâŚ
Hahahaha, Hahahaha, that was great Fin
I say buy all the chips you can possibly buy with real money to support Replay Poker. After all, we all get bad beats.
Thank you for your service, and for your sense of humor. If more people placed high-value on these things, what a wonderful world it would be
Dear Micki,
Mirror, mirror on the wall⌠Who has the friendliest poker button of all ? ? ?
That might not be a bad Idea if replay thought about it⌠Youâll have to turn that in to the suggestions if you will, If you like the idea as well. It certainly would help Replayâs bottom line to have that kind of emotional impulse option for those who may not need to purchase chips themselves, but still have the urge to reach out and help others who are struggling with our game . They could also make some lower increments available for gifting as wellâŚNow youâre encouraging and making it easier for players with another avenue of philanthropy that currently isnât available in the course of a game or tournament. If youâre familiar with the theory of impulse buying combined with the emotional urge to help others. Iâm wondering how much of a positive impact or refection it would have in our community ?
Anyways if you like it as well Micki, maybe you can steer this idea through the channelsâŚ
I agree Godeek⌠though my retiree fixed budget does not support muchâŚ
