  I will be playing less Brackets because there is always 3-6 players who play in the 50's WHEN YOUR PLAYING FOR MONEY, and there is never any chance for me who plays in the high 60s.  My suggestion is that the brackets are played which player handicaps  or people who play in the 50's play people in the 50's, people who play in the 60's play people in the 60's, people who play in the 70's play people in the 70's.  Because I've discovered I have close to no chance to win, I will PLAY ONLY WHEN BORED AT MINIMAL AMOUNT.     Thanks, WINKDINKERSON

  Me too mate!

  In my respective tiers, there have always been some legit players who were extremely talented and those who spent their money for the best equipment. And then, the multiaccounters and other cheats stepped up...

  I'm not playing for credits any more!

  Why not set them up in your country club? You have to use up a tourny slot and you can't do countback with draws but apart from that they work well. That way you only play people that you know and hopefully trust.

  Such is life there is always someone better. That said you have $600 odd in winnings,you seem to have entered a lot of credit brackets despite having little chance of winning (based on your score history) and you have only just realised this?

  Perhaps you have a gambling problem. Some of us just play for fun with friends, you have only 3. Do you really think you can make a living from this game?

  By restricting players to ranges based on averages leads to a sandbaggers advantage. IMHO, if you are good enough take a punt, if not play for fun.

  Well you are a slow learner indeed - if you have NO chance, why on earth would you put money on the table at all? Oh gambling problem ...............................

  Oh my, I was just trying to improve and get more players involved in the game.  Such judgement.   Wink
