The Bingo epidemic

LOL yes I know. It was nothing more than a tongue in cheek joke. Of course Replay will never address this problem, but wanted to make fun of the nonsense.

I do not think anything can be done to prevent bingo play generally without ruining the game for everyone, but Replay could unable the “muck function” on preflop all-ins.

It would serve two functions, make the stupid exposed, and tell everyone who they are – every hand.

Of course, with my luck, any 72 os will take me down.

I already have a pretty long list of those players, so once I see them on my table I know what to expect.

Was just trying to play in the promo this week (hi-lo Omah) but the stakes are low, and EVERY table is not stopping bingo EVERY hand-have to leave as my bingo is at my church- only on Thursday nights:)

continued complaining is not going to fix it. Play higher stakes and you won’t see that much of it and btw…going all in ona a good starting hand has its place and is not bingo.IMO

It is annoying, but realistically what is the solution? Just fold and wait out these players. It’s just as annoying when people sit out more than they play and they place, but you can do that in a casino for real money and be blinded out. There aren’t solutions to these problems sadly.

My friend, first off, the contest this week, you cannot play higher then 50/10 and that is WHERE all the bingo players are usually (50/100 and under). Second, my friend, would love having you at my table in cash games:) any time, or here:)

At a casino PPL. DO NOT play bingo, believe me on this, me old and VERY LITTLE bingo at casinos-bingo at my church though, on Thursdays:).

First off let me say thank you for considering me a friend lol. I agree most all in all the time players are at 50/100 or lower tables; that is why i suggested playing at higher stakes :).
As for you loving to have me at your table in a cash game on here…there arn’t any cash tables here silly man and i’m too smart of a woman to take you up on that haha.Enjoy your day and thanks for giving me a smile to start my day!

Nice lady, i DO PLAY much higher stakes, but for the promo you can only play UP 2- 50-100 and as you said, that is where the bingo players hang out usually. :)… I would enjoy playing with you on here, you seem like a nice young lady and i bet you probably win more then you lose:).

Starting to enjoy ticket tourney’s more now. Nobody really plays bingo in those. Rarely if ever. Which makes it more fun in my opinion.

Man, that’s wild! Sounds like the all-in craze is taking over the tables, especially with the influx of new players. Setting a per-game limit on all-ins could definitely help keep things in check ...

Totally agree with that.

That is a good way to stay away from some so called Bingo Players, among with others such as stud games & any fixed limit games. I personally choose to play them, learn from them & hopefully they will learn from me. Always have fun at a great site & gl at the tables!

If you don’t like it, level up. Players don’t do this at high/elite stakes.

It’s a free poker site. The lower limits will always be full of players who don’t take the game seriously, or simply don’t know how to play. Nothing can be done about this, nor should it.

Talk of showing all hands that don’t get called preflop is frankly ludicrous. The basis of poker is limited information.

If you no longer have to match my bet to see my cards, we aren’t playing poker.

Here is a plan. Start up a tourney once week or day for Bingos only. Make it a freeroll tourney for those that think they are actually good at it. I would pay real money to watch it. It would have to be very entertaining.

Maybe if that sort of tourney were offered, the Bingos in here would calm down a bit. Because frankly, I know of at least 8 people who no longer want to play on this site because it.

I would actually love to knock back a few beers, sit back and watch that crap show just for fun lol! But I would get bored after 10 hands and probably stop there lol.

Replay already offers these types of tournaments. But they are not limited to just Bingo players.

Just look for a low buy-in tournament for less than 5k and it indicates that it’s a Rebuy tournament denoted with an R next to the buy-in amount especially the ones with unlimited Rebuys for the first xx minutes.

Just my opinion, but when you play in these tournaments, they are not very entertaining.
