some investors will wait ages to recover their losses as everyone will invest back now 
Exactly, those who stayed are going to wait ages for recovery, while those who left and go back now are going to benefit from the lower variance! Insane.Yes, that's me. Kinda hurts to know that even dooglus divested, plus he suddenly changed the rules while the only customers that could have made us quickly recoup those losses was playing, pissing him off big time.
I was ready to lose 100% of my investment playing against Nakowa because I have faith in both math and the weaknesses of gambler psychology, but realizing that it will now take ages to recoup that investment because of a management decision really sucks.
Includes me as well. I'm not happy about this.
The whale showed us that large bets are risky for the house. Why not to change house edge with a bet size? So that someone could bet even 1000 bitcoins at once, but with a house edge like 20-30%.
The house was never in any danger of going bust. That's the beauty of the Kelly criterion. You nevere risk more than 1%.
Count me between the unhappy ones. We were already voting with our wallets, by staying invested. This unilateral decision has screwed everybody. Gamblers and investors.
