http://www.jaredhubbard.com/blog/com...sngs/#comments. the choice should be obvious. once revolution fixes up their software issues, things will be even more clear. My only major concern is whether or not revolution will attract enough players. As most should know many players don't like switching sites

Revolution SNGs are better in almost every way but Merge wins because they don't have a 0/10 under the players column. All they have done is damage the liquidity of Merge SNGs, terrible for US SNG players.

U can't expect traffic to jump straight up right away. Give it a few days

if merge would make adjustments to their Sng games along with the new software it would be no contest..

So as it stands revolution structure/games is way better on revolution, but software/traffic is better on merge.

Hopefully merge fixes their game selection with the release of the software.. it would make them a real contender.. Revolution has A LOT of work to do on the software before i'd even consider playing there.. it is beyond horrible.

What are the plans for changing the software? I just got on, and three people are already stating in the tournament chat the software alone is going to make them leave.... and my sentiments are the same. The software makes it a chore to play.

I hate the update. Such a waste. We go from a semi crappy software to the ****tiest software known. Cake pokers software tilts the **** out of me. And now playing husngs you have these stupid random 5 min sync breaks right in the middle of the match when youre getting momentum.

Didn't see this thread at first, but I'm seeing little reason to not make snap judgements and just leave and play on Merge again. This type of major move should have coincided with whatever revamps they have planned. That's if they even really have any revamps and aren't just going to make minor tweaks and roll with this. I'm sure the playerbase will rise as well, but it's very small right now.

Does it work with revolution? And will it continue to work once they roll out an update?

I know. Thats exactly what I said in my comment. sync breaks = synchronized breaks... And They should only be used for tournaments not husng/stsngs... really pissed me off today when I just had a bad beat which left me with 100 and I had to wait 5 min to shove with 2bb.... FML

The software is terrible. I found Cakes software to be unplayable years ago. Nice to know nothing has changed.....
