In my opinion, Cake rewards are better. I'm pretty sure I'm getting 55%-60% RB with the promos they have. Cake rake is still dealt method, so the rake back is really heavy. The monthly reloads are very easy to clear. Also if you're putting in decent volume, you can easily place in top 5 in the FPP race.
As for WPN, their rake is contributed, so less RB for you. You get 27% RB instead of the 36% that you get on Cake. I also think 'the beast' isn't that great. You need to place in top 3 for good money, and the same players are constantly winning those week after week. I'm pretty sure those guys put in the minimum 100k hands/week.
More regs on WPN. Cake also has a ton of regs, but I see a lot more fish on Cake than on WPN.
Hope this helps, GL.
I will keep this in mind, if i get to a point where i need moar volume i might add cake as a second network. Was considering equity but cake sounds better as at least hm2 works here without a hh convertor

I snap left Equity. I don't even know how you can play there with that software.
I haven't even checked it out, was choice due to rake and rb. It's how i chose acr over merge. The week before i had to choose acr dropped beast fee so it was easy decision
Theres no way to logically justify not playing a site with an OK software that isnt perfect when you can basically get all your tables with 0 to 1 regs on them
That's like gettting offered to go back in time to the party days and refusing because the 1 stipulation is that you cant have a tracker/hud.
Depends on time of day. ACR seems pretty much like a regfest during peak hours. Fish seem to come out during the graveyard shifts. Cake is pretty much the same.

I'm burnt out and need a couple days off. Definitely not playing my best, making some light call downs in some spots, and mental game hasn't been that great either. I'll put in some volume, but won't be mass tabling until the weekend is over.

This has been a boring ass month so far, I'm breakeven at best/slightly up with RB. Just the way things goes sometimes. Nothing I can do but to review and try to get better everyday. I will also cut down on tables. You know you're playing too many tables when you dont even know how the action went down, or you're asking yourself 'how did the pot get so big?'
Seems that you're 3 barreling too much. In the 2nd hand you posted flop was 744, no one ever folds to cbets on those boards in my experience. I would also check back on the T2 hand on the turn and fold/check non heart rivers.

Yeah, I was getting mentally frustrated and tried to force things.
Even though I am under EV, I definitely feel like I am leaking somewhere. I have loosened up a bit, and I'm defending more 3bets, and just playing fit/fold post flop. Also my river call efficiency is around 1, which is very poor. Looking to fold more rivers.
100NL UPDATE:
About 25% complete of 100k hands. Breaking even for the most part.

I felt like I needed to defend here, given how much I've been getting 3b by villan.

I am up for the month, but it's been pretty frustrating at the tables. RB/Bonuses are bailing me out at the moment. I guess I'm just going to have to grind it out.
H1: turn is probably bad, river is def bad
H2: I don't like river cuz a lot of his range is Acxc
H3: good fold, turn sizing looks like value
H4: idk, I feel like we're behind to his tb range with his sizing and texture. Not sure wo reads.
H5: that's tough. If river was non diamond I would feel better about. I think his xr range is fds and J9. So that diamond sucks balls and the fact that he barrels is pretty strong.
Lol at H4, unlucky. Exploit him by defending vs his 3bet with an extended value range, 4b him lighter, I think the fact that he barrels a 2x river says a lot about his TB range, like if he barrels a blank he probably has it. Not exactly sure how to exploit him post. That was just off the top of my head.

Haven't checked spoilers btw. Will do now.
h1: yeah i should probably fold river. even up to nl100 i don't see 3barrels as being bluffs.
h2: if you add in KT/KJ, then it becomes a clear vbet. this guy's vpip is well over 50%.

I might drop Cake out of my schedule. I'm getting in volume but not enough under the stake. short term goal is to show a profit at nl100, but overall goal is to get to nl200+ by the end of the year. i truly believe it's possible with the help of the stable.
