In the spirit of my previous comments I figured I'd post a hypothetical hand of a common sample situation, to foster some discussion on how people would play it and why, as well as thought processes in these spots.

An example:

Early stage of a large low stakes MTT. Blinds are 50/100 with no antes, and you're probably an orbit or two from the 75/150 level.

Hero is in MP with about 5000.
Villain 1 (V1) on BTN has 6300 and has been a little looser than others, took down one or two sizable pots, but has not shown down a hand of note.
Villain 2 (V2) in BB has 3600, hasn't been terribly active let alone gotten out of line.

Folds to Hero with KsQc, who raises to 300.
V1 calls on B

In previous years rebuy tournaments have gone the way of 5 card draw and John Phan... replaced in most casinos by re-entries: If you bust out, you can pay another entry fee with rake and enter the tournament again. The re-entry rule is popular at major regional tournaments as well as online, and they're now becoming popular across the board in local donkaments.

There was a whole firestorm about the disadvantage that players get if for whatever reason they can only afford single buy-ins. There's also the issue of paying rake as compared to paying no rake on a traditional rebuy.

But I realized there is one benefit to the advent of the re-entry. Whereas rebuys did not previously count as addi

UberPOOL has become a popular choice for riders, in large part because it's cheaper than the regular UberX.

However, riders not only forget that you're agreeing to carpool with other riders in the cheaper UberPOOL ride, that this may delay your arrival... but there are some things you're used to doing with UberX that either can't or shouldn't be done with UberPOOL.

• If you need to get somewhere ASAP or by a certain time, absolutely take an UberX. When you request an UberPOOL you're stating that you don't have a firm timeline and can wait for other rides to start and finish before your arrival.

• If you need to make multiple stops, request an UberX. It is assumed when requesting an UberPO

So basically, unlike many of you, I do accept POOL rides. I do realize many riders are just taking it to make the ride cheaper, and don't realize, understand or accept they're agreeing to sit through other pickups and dropoffs en route to their destination. Despite the obvious complications this causes, I accept these rides under the following conditions.

If you as a rider take a POOL ride and are in a hurry... automatic 1 star, depending on your behavior. I report to Uber that you requested a POOL in a time sensitive situation and insisted we not make any stops, which violates the conditions of the cheaper ride. At my discretion I may take you to your destination, or drop you off and insis

In light of several trolls following me across multiple subreddits, I finally got the admins involved, and as they continue investigating they offered an easy interim solution that quickly made things better: Blocking offending users!

Whenever you get a response in your inbox from a user, the links below give you several options. One of these links says 'block user'. If you click it, and click yes you're sure, you'll never see that person's input on reddit again! That person can say all the hateful, trolling bullshit they want, and you'll never see it.

So, I know I'm not the only one tired of certain regs here who insist on shitting all over threads with their usual trolling attacks (that
