If Stars offered even 30% flat they'd have 100% of the market

FT one time

I don't really understand whats going on? There are now 0 games of 50nl running either 6max or full ring. There are 40 players at 50nl speed poker but about half of these are sat out. Party poker is currently down for maintenance too. Is stars the only place to play poker now?

If Microgaming wasn't consisted only of Anons and Turbos - I think I'd move there right now. I hope the situation with iPoker will straighten up soon.

Noticed the same thing but yeah - PokerStars is solid Can't see any reason why to play anywhere else. Best game selection, good support + security, fast cashouts/deposits, SN rakeback is OK.

I have an account at paddy, titan and WH. Been doing some testing

Some wierdness going on. For example on the 2/4 HU cash games on WH there are approx 15 tables running. On paddy and titan there are probably double that.

On paddy and titan I can see the games running on WH. So there are about 15 extra games on paddy and titan I dont see on WH. However when I try to access any of those extra tables, I'm getting a generic error message.

So on paddy and titan trying to join about half of the tables simply results in an unexplained error

Anyone done any testing to see diff between ipoker1 and 2 yet? im on Titan and seems to be good traffic.. always been 50+ on speed and at least 6 tables of 50/100nl running

To all regs:

Dear iPoker regs,
Guys, don't be afraid of opening new tables and playing some HU vs other reg. If you are just sitting out there like a pussy, the fish probably won't join, because the fish are looking for THE ACTION. Action is when people are playing, not waiting for their easy prey. This way, we can together open more tables and as a result, attract more fish.

Furthermore, open 50 bb tables ONLY.



Why 50 bb are the best?
a) 20-50 bb Shallow tables suck for obvious reasons
b) 30-100 bb suck, because simply fish can keep on reloading only to 30 bbs
c) 100 bb+ are theoretically the best for exploiting fish, but apparently they are not happy with bringing so much money at the table

50 bb tables are the most optimal choice. Fish need to bring only 20 bb more as a minimum, but it is 66.7% more, compared to 30 bb tables.


100nl players are doing their job pretty well so far:


With best regards,
Good luck at the tables

Nice post MatiKosa but im sorry to say, this has been said 100 times allready.

People simply hate starting tables.

Its the same handful of regs generating action for the other 30+ lobby lurkers.

If any reg's on William hill fancy getting rid of all your points in those cash point sng's we can get 5ppl together and shove every hand, this was tried before and worked well

lobbylurker is a nice SN

So we will say it 101st time, maybe then more guys will understand. Oh and one more thing:

If you decide to join a reg and play a HU match against him, always take a seat across, so both of you have equal chance of having a position on fish:



Also, don't start the tables, if your plan is to steal opponent's BB and then insta sit out.



Imo people starting the tables should get rewarded. The player who opens the table + the first player who will join it should get like 5 points each, then the third player 2 points for joining the action and playing in a 3-handed game and lastly 1 point for the 4th guy.

And then these will be treated like a rake race during a time period (for example a month):
100 points - $200
80 - 99 points - $150
etc. etc.

This should increase the traffic + the quality of the games imo.

I actually suggested that to a skin manager I know a couple of weeks back and I agree that would be pretty cool.
(they had something similar at everest way back, you'd simply get more FPPs per $ at that table if you started it).

But I guess that would require all skins to work together.. Maybe now with iPoker2 it's an opportunity to try for it again since it's only 5 skins who would need to be convinced.

Good idea!

ye im in man!

Mee too only have 40k points though

actually looks like its a no go for me, tried regging for a 25000 points to cash sng and it says its restricted. must be because of my rb deal

I got 1.4 million points if we can get enough guys we can at least play a few.

MatiKosa I agree with everything you have said but I don't like your condescending tone! And yeah, it's been said many times before.

also, on WH, i got paid some rakeback and i can't check how much it is like i used to, clicking cashier redirects to webpage and not the pop up cashier in the client. there is no transaction history on the website for the RB. sounds complicated but if you are on WH you will know what i mean... wtf is this...

click my account on the top of the client. then click transaction history. thats how i checked mine just an hour ago

Just tried to register like I did last week and now its restricted. Seems like they read this thread.

yeah that's the pop up i was looking for, cheers mate!

2 tables of 50nl running now (Paddy) at 8pm UK time. Ipoker going under?

seriously? wow.

http://pokerfuse.com/features/in-dep...q-for-players/

according to this article it was a complete split and even when you are playing ipoker2 you wont have access to all ipoker1 tables like everyone was saying

its possible that ipoker1 with all the small skins might be the best place to be playing right now basically because there are a ton more of them than there is on ipoker2 even tho the biggest skins are there

logging into ipoker now and looking at the lobby tilts me to be honest

I see 14 full tables and some partly fulls on Titan right now, some of them shallow though.
Maybe check your filters?

edit: 2 tables of FR though, if that's waht you meant
