How about some tournament games based on play level. Games say for level 15(or 10)and higher. This would decrease the number of players that just go all in and when they loose just use another of their multiple accounts. Just a thought. 😎
#Add Tournament types with level-requirement as part of entry

Many people have level 1 players with a ton of experience and hands played, and these folks shouldn't be lumped in with people - no matter their level - who play recklessly.
The fact is that all-in pre-flop is a legit strategy, whether on cash tables or tournament tables - and you'll need to develop a style to play against it, and when you join in, accept the losses with the wins.
You may be interested in contributing to this thread however, as those level 1s with 100k tournament hands wouldn't exist if there were a leveling system for tournament play 🙂 >>

Sorry that I don't agree with your point of view. Your post supports the abusers and disregards people wanting to play poker.

It's a difficult topic for sure.
I also don't like it when I'm on a table and someone tries to dictate how I'm "allowed" to bet, as I feel like they're trying to control the table.
As it stands, all-in pre-flop over and over my be annoying, but it's not against the rules.

It is a tough thought. We have all been a level 1 however those of us experienced in poker still needed to learn the tools especially for those of us new to VR. My experience does allow for navigation around the disrespectful players although it's frustrating and not as enjoyable of a game with playing the kids with their antics and trying to play a good game of poker. I don't know the answer but I do like the idea of minimum Level requirement for tournaments and most cash tables.

I feel like there shouldn’t be a level requirement, I have, along with many others have lvl 1 Acc’s that have 5k plus hands played, regardless people new to the game can get lucky and win a few pots and be the same as sm1 who is lvl 5, people are gonna abuse the system regardless and I feel like the people playing right shouldn’t be punished

It is only until lvl 5.
Just so the new players get chance to learn the ropes before joining a tournament and disrupting a game.
Doesn't take long to get to lvl 5.

At this time there are players who have characters that ONLY do tournaments, and because tournaments don't give leveling experience, they can be very experienced while still being "level 1".
While I appreciate you're aiming at truly new and inexperienced people, maybe also consider contributing your thoughts and expansions to these suggestions:

As said. It don't take long to pop to cash games to lvl up to 5 or even 3 to then join the tournaments with those accounts.
Just a thought and imput on finding a solution to what many others are thinking .

Some players prefer being level 1, it probably gives them some advantage vs players who think they're actually level 1 🙂
Watch in your tournaments.
At any rate, the other topics i listed allow for other ways to address the same thing.
