I wanted to know from your experience what is your opinion about ACR as poker room and can you recommend on him?
I play mostly 6-max\HU MS\LS NL but of course i'm hoping moving up to the M\HS so i'm asking in general for all stakes.
How are the rake rates compare to other poker rooms? how is the traffic during the day at the tables? how soft the tables are? how reliable the site is when it comes to deposits and withdrawals?
From my shallow impression the traffic is huge and you can barely find a free seat during rush hour in the games I play, not to mention when multitabling, and the field is pretty tough. On the other hand Bitcoin transactions is a huge advantage and I don't have a variety of poker rooms to choose from where I live.
So what are your thoughts? really appreciate your help

What do you want in a site? Do you wanna play against some of the best competition out there or do you just want a nice soft site? If you wanna go up against some of the toughest competition then from what I understand this is your site.

Who would want to play against better players than him? I asked about the level in ACR in general, and from you I understand it's high.
To simplify my question, what are the pros and cons of this website and are you recommend to play there? I know it's might be too general but i'm just checking my options and would love to hear some opinions from people who played or playing there.

From my experience and from what I hear from others it's a pretty good site, only drawback is the competition is stiff. I actually like the site a lot for fun, to make money..... well I'm not making money lol. I think I've made $67 in like 2-3 years where on stars you could print money even if you sucked back when I could play.

I'm curious if anyone has much bad to say about the site other then small things here and there like not showing cards in showdown.

Your "soft" fields are Carbon/Merge. Much less traffic though. Plus, no rake back. Might pay to split your play.

I think i'll go for ACR anyway, no traffic and rake back are huge disadvantages.
But what does it mean not showing cards in showdown? even if i'm involved in the pot? that's stupid.

If your opponent has his check box checked for "auto muck" then unless both or all go all in you will not see their cards

Ive never liked this on ACR. On almost all other poker sites ive played you can see the other players cards in the replay if it went to showdown

Let me muck my losing 27o in peace.

It means that the players aren't able to police anything dodgy going on with the site. It's a simple fix that they've promised for a long while that they apparently have no intention of fixing. If you're going to play on this site, know going in that this aspect of the site is very sketchy.

Well unfortunately I don't have other options, maybe you can accidently recommend on one.

Sketchy? A big accusation like this deserves a better explanation

I'm sure a lot of people want to see cards. Is ACR the only site that doesn't allow?

I dont know if we are the only site but does that make us sketchy and if so.. How?

I don't think he is accusing WPN of anything, just saying that without seeing cards, it is harder to discover anything that may happen. Not only with the site, but with collusion too. Most, if not all, of the scandals in the past have been discovered by the players. And I am sure before any of the scandals were discovered the parties involved said "not us! We're totally legit." So while WPN could be the most honest site out there and whether it is fair or not, your colleagues in the industry have earned everyone a skeptical eye.

The most frustrating part is that it has been promised to be on the way, but never happens. You yourself said it way being worked on and "on it's way!" in 2014. So that feels like you guys are just stringing players along to keep them from potentially jumping ship. I have no idea if this is really a deal-breaker for anyone, but I am sure the promise of something that never happens is why you draw the comments you do when this subject pops up. Just tell everyone it is not going to happen and to deal with it and to move on.

Well stated.

Agreed 100%. This is the main reason and would also help to spot bots as well.

WPN is the leading poker room for US players, but this is one of those things they should implement to help secure the integrity of the game and I don't know why this particular feature has always been beat around the bush.

A UB type of scandal would have been so much harder to figure out if UB did the same thing as WPN. I wonder if that effects bots at all, anyone have a clue if it would be harder to detect a bot?

I think showing hand history would put some odds back in favor for the recreational players. The sites tournament structure is not rec friendly but the payouts are super rec friendly. PS even has tournament hand history replay with faced up cards.. The site is already tough for recs to play vs all the HUD users. They need better odds.

That's not gonna help recs, when every tables has mass grinders left and right they are gonna get gaped open in a rapey fashion either way.

I can't take you seriously if you're over here crying about bots.

+1

who the **** said anything about bots you lil *****?

You did, Sir.

Most crooked site I have played on and I am a winning player here. It will come out later that there are certain super users who fly under radar. If you have any other option that this site I would play there
