I found myself ultra fast playing AA in a hand only to minimize the chance of getting disconnected during the hand.

This cannot be it !

I'm out.

Rakeback deals will get cancelled anyways after Jan 1 due to SBR.

ipoker go fugg yourself.

It's odd that high RB deals were the norm when it was possible to have a decent win rate just playing (not extreme bumhunting). Now when RB is even more important for games to run, sites want to cut it. Lots of regs will be buggered if they cut it too much, which obv leads to even less games running. Fun times ahead.

Wow f that, thanks for the insight....so would withdrawing and depositing the money backs few days later work to get you Rakeback or you have to lose money to get it? This sounds terrible

If you lose money like Gus Hansen then maybe you get a token for a depositor freeroll. Even if Guy Laliberte decides to play at ipoker RB deals and VIP programms will be much lower for him too. And they give a f if regs make money now or not. Or if they decide it's more +EV to work at Burger Kings now.

please take a second and read this because you will not believe it can happen - titan poker was confiscating me 3.000 euros for using what they called irregular betting patterns and they are not giving any details( probably a whale called an overbet from me i suppose it means - but surprise they are not answearing now to my emails to send me at least the hand histories or the name of the players who received the money).
details here http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28.../#post45388382

hard to believe anyone such a joke to confiscate your money because the hand was not abc style , i am very curipus at least to send me the hands to see what means in their eyes irregular betting patterns

Hi, I would like to know if anyone who withdraw money in the UK after the closure actually received them. Because the support doesn't answer to any emails, any facebook messages.

Source based rake, more details here:

http://pokerfuse.com/features/in-dep...network-split/

If you are 'raking' 1k EUR but under SBR model your skin is only being credited with say 300 EUR rake for your play then they won't be able to afford to pay you your 60% RB based on the 1k EUR i.e. 600 EUR. In doing so they'll be 300 EUR out of pocket!

The SBR will only affect the revenue shares that skins are paid by iPoker not the 'rake' assigned to players for points, bonuses etc, but it will impact players indirectly as explained above.

I withdrew twice from NetBet last month without any issues. Not sure what you mean by "closure" though.

i just have to post this chat even though there has surely been similar before, but at least for the humor value:

LukeM: Hello welcome to Betfair you are chatting with LukeM. How can I help?
xxx: hello, this is an example what happened... a recreational player goes bust on poker table and regular player immediately sits out. and keeps on sitting out until the recreational player comes back
xxx: is this predatory behavior allowed in betfair?
LukeM: hi
LukeM: one moment please
xxx: i understood you value more the players who keep on depositing to a site, so this kind of behavior sure make recreational players feel bad... and maybe not deposit as much if they would feel good
LukeM: there is a time period on the platform, and if a player sits out for a certain amount of times he will get kicked out
xxx: i know, that does not address the problem at all
xxx: so it is allowed to that what i wrote in the example?
xxx: do you understand what I am after?
LukeM: the i poker take colluding very seriously and have a xzero tolerence to it and have a specific team investigating this issue
xxx: it's not colluding either
xxx: luke, do you play poker yourself?
LukeM: not online
xxx: ok, so you probably understand what im after... think if in your live game, the fish goes bust, and everyone stops playing after that
xxx: and when the fish has come back from atm, everyone else starts playing after he has reloaded
LukeM: so you think players are pairing up together?
xxx: oh jeez, you do not get it :/
xxx: no i dont think so
LukeM: no i'm afraid i am not understanding
xxx: how could i explain it....
xxx: it is very bad behavior to sit out the same time as the recreational player sits out... the recreational player feel being very hunted after
xxx: if you dont get it, can i talk to another person in your team?
LukeM: are you suggesting that there is a bot on the website?
xxx: what?
xxx: how did you come up with that?
LukeM: i'm trying to understand what you are trying to say
xxx: could you transfer me to another customer servant

He doesn't play poker at all,it's the only explanation why he has no idea about bumhunting. I stopped contacting live support on Coral after i asked about ipoker's rake cap and was told by representative that there's no rake cap on ipoker

Winpoker was part of iPoker network, but recently they withdrew from the UK market due the new legislation. And I'm unable to get my money from there. I'm just wondering it's just me or someone else are experiencing the same issue? And what to do, where to write ?

Is there any trick on how to keep colour coding from dissapearing the most of the time? It works on average twice a week... Any tip would be much appreciated!

Of course. I don't hate my life enough to keep notes in Playtech software.

I'm interested in colour marking only - for table/seat selecting reasons.
