It´s not only Lock, Cake segregates as well games from other skins on the network.

Generally on Lock and Cake is more NL Holdem traffic than on other skins on the network.

I've compared Lock to Intertops lately and there is definitely a lot more people and games on Intertops. Lock looks dead lately and I don't see it getting better. They haven't done anything lately that would really make anyone want to play on their site and their reputation and credibility just keep getting worse and worse. Maybe Jennifer Larson shouldn't have thrown that lavish party in Portugal while her poker site wasn't paying players faster than at a trickle pace. I would say it is pretty likely the money she used to do it with was player funds that weren't segregated. Hard to have any faith in a company that is being run the way Lock is.

You can believe what you want but I pulled up both clients earlier and their was a big difference between the games on both. Intertops had a lot more games going especially at HU. There was almost no one sitting HU at Lock and plenty of people sitting at HU on Intertops.

As you can see I dont compared HU SNGs.

Yeah, I wish Intertops had Locks traffic lately. I've been playing (or trying at least) to play at Itops while I wait for a Lock cash out, but its been so dead lately :/ (9 max specifically)

I only took shots of .25/.50 through 2/4. The biggest difference I notice is there are a ton more people at HU cash games on Intertops than at Lock.

As you can see from the FACTS there is a HUGE difference in the amount of HU CASH games on Intertops compared to Lock.

I currently do not play on Revolution, but I do care about the options that us US players have. I would play on Intertops and there is nothing wrong with it.

Yeah, if the traffic were at pre-FPT levels, without any segregation at all, Intertops would be the best US option all things considered..... It likely still is actually.

The only reason I did a seperate chart for promos is because I don't believe in counting those. Also normally those tables don't seem to run, but tonight they are for some reason. I don't know how Lock promos work.

I don't have the time to count every single HU table.

My Conclusion from all of this is.... All of you that play Heads Up on Intertops should be ashamed of yourselves.

Thank you!

The red "Double Points" tables is an extra 10% rakeback and the blue promo tables is an extra rakeback starting with at least 15% and the % rise the more you play.

Yes, after recent changes.

Shane confirmed it somewhere in this forum and numerous HUSNG players have posted that traffic is dead.
