That is our hope as well in the future to make things easier for the users and we plan to be functional on all browsers! Unfortunately for the time being, it is only functional on Mozilla Firefox and will take some time for other browsers to become usable. We hope that you give the site a chance and use Mozilla, if only for browsing Synergy Poker.

amazed this wasn't done in HTML5. I forecast headaches for your devs in the future.

you realy need to make FAQ
what kind of payment options are you accepting?

There is a FAQ on the bottom of the site. We accept Paypal, Visa, Mastercard and Amex!

Really good concept, but really awful attempt. The design of the web page is pretty poor and doesn't entice me to buy anything from you.

Sorry you feel that way about the web page, what are your suggestions for improving the design?

I think the site looks fine-good.

Everything is clear, easy to read, it's not cluttered and it's not too boring.

Products, demo, registration all up there for everyone to see. I guess you could bold, underline, add different fonts and make big statements like "110% PROMISE TO START DESTROYING EVERYONE" and "UNBEATABLE TABLE STRATEGY SYSTEM," but most of us don't quite go for that

Considering Synergy Poker is down at the moment, could anyone recommend any other good alternatives in the realm of interactive/coaching type sites as opposed to Vid sites?

Why is the site down?

This is a huge downside to their model. If you bought a video you have no way to access it until the site goes back up.

Insta Poker would be my suggestion. It is a I phone app that works pretty much like the Synergy model without the audio. You read the coaches thoughts/advice rather then have audio. I have bought several packs find them excellent and pretty reasonably priced.

hire a web developer that actually has some real experience in web design, not one that has any poker relations even. Find a second developer that can be trusted to comment on the first to make sure you're not getting pocketed by an amateur.

Whoever designed this site is an amateur and has no sense of design or concept when it comes to web development, no matter how good he or she may be at programming/coding/media applications etc. You may have to hire multiple people or better yet a team.

my point being, is your site looks awful, and any designer or developer (myself included) can tell that this is just an amateur taking you for a couple bucks.

I dont mean to be critical, because most poker sites are just as bad if not worse (I wont name any but honestly, they're everywhere) but something really has to be done about how awful and unprofessional poker sites look. There is no reason why people in the poker business can't find a professional web developer and pay top $$ for a real, professional, interactive site that doesn't look like it was made in the 90's for IE4.

please take this into consideration, how you look does truly matter, even if some don't realize how crude and unprofessional your site really looks. online poker needs an aesthetic overhaul

I'm not downloading an extra plug-in to use your site. You need to fix this if you want a viable future. Fire whatever dev you used that thought this was a good idea.

What is more concerning is the lack of attention given to the site. It reminds me of someone just dabbling with this as a hobby and it's number 23 on the list of things to do.

The site was down for several days with no explanation given anywhere I have seen including here.

Great idea very poorly executed.

You're spot on.

The first version of my own project (don't wanna mention since i have my own site) looked terrible. I then took the losses, fired the guy and did it "the right way".

Since then I've learnt a lot of lessons, especially as a "non-tech" guy. What the poster above is saying is very good advice. There are sooo many rip-offs in the freelancer world, mostly not complete scams, but semi-scams.


My honest advice is:

a) Use a simple framwork, so you're not dependent on one programmer who will pocket you to infinity with his "great special ideas" that only he can solve.

If you got 100k users, it can crash, but that's a problem you want to have

b) Pay big bucks for a very customized solution "from scratch".

I would really be surprised if they are running next year
