Regular PokerCollectif are familiar with the term (born of the legend) "Grimstarr" (join a heads-up table, flying blind 1 or 2 and leave the table), but are probably less familiar with the similar expression "boutonning".
What is the "boutonning"? Operating instructions: take an empty table, join the # 6 seat (seat vested to the button), wait 2 or 3 people (or more) join the table, play a few hands without pay blind and leave the table subsequently. In the long term, the strategy gives you a definite advantage on your opponents.
"Jama-dharma" recently was found guilty of "boutonning" by PokerStars. The player in question practiced this tactic on tables $ 10 / $ 20 limits especially. Some time may pass, but when it comes to a daily habit, we can talk about abuse of the system.
Several players have complained firstly of "Jama-dharma". These players have written to PokerStars support for highlight them the problem. Many of these players also participated in the thread on this topic on the forums of 2 + 2
When the poker room had completed its inquiry, the player was warned formally in writing (a warning which he ignored). Multiple warnings later, the player always makes his ears deaf and PokerStars decided to take drastic measures by banning it in life of their tables. In total, it is 4 warnings "Jama-dharma" has received.
"Button" on the occasion is correct, what is not, is to make a habit as "Jama-dharma" (it became what PokerStars called the "angle shooting"). About this player, he was a regular on the tables of fixed limit hold'em $ 10 / $ 20 up to $ 1000 / $2000. Playing on PokerStars are clear and the "angle shooting" so is not tolerated.
