Hi,

I am on the same road as the previous comment. But I would like to add a few thoughts.

First, I am a recreational player and always will be, but after a few years of playing regularly I do also like to play 6 tables. So my personal view would be to go with 6 tables.

BUT (in capitals, as the other phil would say ;-) ), imo you have to compare the following two things against another:
Is 6 tables so much better for RIO to start business and for professionals for "just" convenience and hourly THAT it justifies the disadvantages of the pure recs as well as net depositors, because they will loose faster and more likely?

Especially when slight winners might become loosers in the long run just because of the table cap of 6 (which is displayed in phils blog i think).

And here I have only one option imo, which is vote for 4 tables! You can argue and counter argue every detail, but there will always be the truth, that in the long run, the best decision for the recs is the best decision for the pros equally as for the running company of the poker game!

Also, please excuse my english, I hope I made my point clear.

Best regards, I wish all the RIO team nothing but success and admire you art of making business!!!
Your communication with your customers is a role model for my own business!

edit: One more thing from my own experience as a business owner (also in a completely different branch (clothing)): When I face an important decision and am not quite sure, I always try not to focus too much on short-term related goals and influencing factors. The most important decision making factors for me are always longevity of my business and product/service quality for my customers. All the other factors (like financial aspects, employees, marketing etc.) will - in the long run - benefit largely from decisions based on those two mentioned factors in the previous sentence.
