Poker is a social game. Even though the games on Bovada are a little softer, the games there have a post-apocalyptic feel to them. Playing on WPN is more enjoyable despite the tighter play. WPN is currently the network with the best, by far, community feel to it.

Despite the fact that Carbon has software that is probably superior to any online poker software aside from PokerStars, it has still managed to put itself in a distant fourth place in regards to the size of the US player pool. That decline happened even before the slow cashouts due to its high rake, lack of promotions, terrible support, table restrictions, blind-siding its players in various ways, etc, etc, etc. A lot of the grinders on Carbon, like myself, also have accounts on other sites.

As far as community feel.i.think full flush is best. Plsyers are very friendly a.talkative to eachother. But.i understand the essence of what u were saying..

Acr is definatly second in that regard which is good. If the chat wasnt so small and moved so fast it would.be better..

I agree about carbon and bovada being ruthless to there player.pool. you are still.playing at carbon norre than acr or at least as much. Please tell me why????

I really believe acr can be better..keep the rake and the one free cashout but stop.spoonfeeding the grinders...im not expressing myself well.but perhaps u can clarify it in "reg" speak for me.i think u might agree on some of my poorly made points..u seem to be objective..

I play on WPN, Carbon, Bovada, Betonline and FullFlush. I pretty much rotate through the sites so I play on them pretty equally.

The reason I still play on Carbon is, I think, mostly for sentimental reasons. I've played on it for many years, even before BlackFriday and love their software and used to love how the site was run. Now, if there is any site I play on the least, I'd say that it is Carbon.

The main reason that I play on so many sites is that California is considering making poker legal, so I might be forced to do a cashout on most of the sites that I play on in the not too distant future. Since the new California sites are a big unknown to me, I want to make sure that I have a healthy bankroll on the offshore sites that I might still play on. It looks like I would still be able to play on Bovada and BetOnline but would be banned from the other sites, if California becomes regulated. I doubt that I'd play on Bovada at all if that weren't the case.

A number of times, I've expressed my opinion that the rec players on this site need a lot more love. I've had other criticisms too but ultimately I know that I don't own the site so I can only express my thoughts and move on. Also, I know from experience that I'm not always right. Whether or not I agree with all of their decisions, WPN is still the network that I have the highest regard for.

what is up with all these accounts sitting at a table and immediately saying a seemingly automated greeting. "hello all from xxxx ! ". every single table they sit at. never says anything else. seen it from four different accounts last 2 days. same exact greeting with that space after last word and exclamation point. very strange.

Was about to ask the same exact question in this thread....

Seen it form like 5 different accounts, all seemingly from the US.
Thought something real weird was going on there.

So, it is some kind of automated thing?...

Good one.. that's exactly how I felt when.I read the interview with the ceo...

Everything is geared to advantage/tilt/angle shoot/ nudge as much profit to the grinders.

A little proactive nuanced slant for the pro.,(to say the least),

Why do u think the interviewer broight it up. Becouse that is what acr is known for.. non rec friendly...duh! lack of rec/fish #2 complaint.
#1 is the late and not enouph fish to get the gi60 to run...... the long lates are for the B.R. grinders who buy there cashes among other things.

But capt phill ahab got all defensive about it...

Case closed.

Anyone have a good grasp on what time of day there are the most games going? Been playing full ring and still havent figured out best time to find 4 tables of 50nl going and sometimes finding none
10-16-2015 , 07:54 AM
If you are gonna play full ring then be prepared to be a table starter.

Can I donate my Combat points to somebody? I will never use them, and I get RB so they don't even accumulate anymore. If anyone cares, I have just shy of 1K points.

I thought didn't have rakeback? Do tell
10-16-2015 , 05:46 PM
They should be donated to a frustrated rec.. by the way my frustrations have been validated..

No. They should go to someone who works hard and puts the time in and pays a lot of rake.
10-16-2015 , 06:29 PM
Yea ur right...

A working class guy that pays almost half in wages in taxes, who.just wants a friendly game of poker in the micros after work is not worthy..

Thats not a demographic acr is after, I know that. The ceo said it himself...

I dont know the reasons u play. Most are just greedy insatiable people. Me, I.just love the game.
