Isn't this news item in fact the opposite of news. It's like making news of the fact there is no news. Although honestly you can't expect the most popular high stakes players to play every day. When your used to all these huge players going up and down and big poker titans clashing, a normal poker day looks a bit boring.
And yes admin you really should correct that reoccurring mistake. Not knowing how to spell quiet is a little unprofessional.

Sorry if the title was a bit misleading. Spelling mistake has now been corrected (I know quite and quiet have different meanings)! Thanks for letting me know! Thomas-admin

I didnt knew that these high stakes are played daily. There is noting about playing a nice pokergame at those high stakes isnt? Peeps who play those stakes has so many dollars, that losing or winning 500 K is nothing for them. Its unbelieveble that so many people are playing these high stakes!

Yeah with figures like this it seems like high stakes is now medium stakes... but i guess thats how it goes some days are full and others are quite. just like Bankrollmob some days there are loads of posters and others its a slow news day. Life has a funny way of evening thing up every now and again... maybe tomorrow will be a HUGE day at high stakes...? who knows?

right, they don't even know where to store their money -.- But in this way, they help "normal" people to get some of their money
