Regs boycott CoinPoker: mass cashouts and talk against the new rake
Cash game regulars are staging an unofficial boycott of CoinPoker in response to yet another rake increase and a change to the ante structure. Players are cashing out en masse and refusing to play, trying to crash the room's traffic and force management to roll back the conditions. Vlad Buti did the math: because of the increased fee burden, most stakes have stopped being beatable even taking maximum rakeback and affiliate payouts into account.
The community is actively calling to "vote with your money" and to engage in hard bumhunting, sitting only at tables with super-weak amateurs (VPIP 50+). Fellini stresses that as long as "optimists and lazy regs" keep grinding out volume hoping for a miracle, the room sees traffic holding up and won't change its policy. Fellini also notes that CoinPoker "shot itself in the knee" trying to squeeze out maximum commissions, and advised players with a winrate below 5 bb/100 to leave the site immediately.
dyrdom1 in his Telegram channel proposes blocking the games from filling up, setting a precedent similar to past protests at PokerOK. The poker community is convinced that the only working lever of influence on the crypto room's management remains empty tables and the withdrawal of liquidity.
