Well , I do not intend to play them , they might be good games , but not for me , i would play the 1$ if they had more GTDs , or at least more satellites for the games . I am not good enough , so i want big GTDs and many tickets offered in the sats that I play , that's why i like playing on some series of tourneys . These big 20 reverse series on PS is good , I 'll play tomorrow in some sats , there the offered tickets worth the money , 100 seats for $0.55 and 100 seats for $1 , 2x30 seats for $0.55 , and 75 sats Sunday Storm for $1 now these \are some good sats lol .

The title of the thread is poker streams , so I will say sth on this topic . i see many times that streamers in their streams , they play very fearless poke , they play many games , with high buyins , maybe many of them have hidden their online results on sites such as sharkscope . I belive they do notcare for overall bankroll success , as they have the sponsorship .
All they care about is the Final tables . they want to put in their streaming title the '' Final Table '' thing , this gives them viewers , more promotion , etc etc .
But this makes them advertising and showing a type of pkker game that if a novice would follow , he would bust his bankrolll for sure .lol Also , they do play some hands althought they know that online these hands would lose , but they are forced to do it , as they do not wish diapprovement by their sponsor or the chat . This is so cringe ....

Veldhuis was forced to move and relocate to Belgium , in order to able to ontinue streaming online hie PokerStars Twitch sessions . Ofcourse some other players from Netherlands must have done the same to be able to continue grinding on PS . Veld Huis initially said he couldn't move to Belgium for family reasons but he finally seems to have sorted this out . But he never intended to leave PS, because they have treated him very well , I would add like a king , lol,

I think that on twitch they have more freedom then on you tube,so they can play normally there,ofcourse not to have bad words in live and this kind of things,but players and people that watch like more it in last years!

There were some leaks weeks ago , some info on how much is the revenue of many famous streamers , I think among them there were some poker players streamers . ofcourse i did not look all these numbers , that's the least of my interests , what counts is that far too many streamers make many millions of dollars per year , some of them one million of $$$ only and some many thousands or hundreds of thousands of $$$ . Either you are a casino/poker streamer or a casual game streamer , these numbers are high . If you consider how difficult it is for many people to win the basics or some hundreds of $$$ per month , what jobs they have to do , how difficult it is . And then you see one idiot gaining $1M for playing video games 30-40 hours per week .... WTF ..
