No sync breaks. Deposit bonuses are automatic and scale up the more you purchase. Biggest one is 5%, 2100 sweeps cash for $2,000.

I beg to differ. Bawsten has made 7 figures in rakeback from global

If you're opposed to rakeback or rewards you literally believe that "more rake is better".

I think rakeback and rewards are good, and I also think sync breaks are good. Both help me, as a winning player. Both would also help losing players. If you are of the mindset that sync breaks are bad, you should also be of the mindset that rakeback is bad, and that an uncapped table count is bad. If you buy into the (incorrect) mindset of a poker site that overly caters towards recs, you shouldn't be inconsistent, you should be all or nothing. Personally I think it's silly to have that mindset because you're hurting yourself for almost literally no benefit.

You have to pick the right target with your argument. You know what the counter-argument is. No rakeback means fewer regs and likely fewer bots (if they still exist, not trying to open any discussion about bots currently), and a better recreational environment.

rakeback is a terrible idea. Why do you want more regs + more multitablers and less rec players?

I think 10% would be fine. Nothing crazy but gives back a little.

Lmao someone has tilt issues

If you can’t play poker rakeback or not will not save your weak poker skills. Some people here are trying to get Improvements to play for a purpose. Any Joe blow can lose their 20 bucks regardless. Let’s get more players

Please give us two or three orbits if we’re sitting out before we’re kicked off the table. I barely have any time to take a break before I’m kicked off table. Other sites i have like 10-15 min to sit out before I’m kicked off table

Because we really enjoy playing 3 handed on a 6 max table because 3 people are sat out for 15 minutes.

You can take your dump and then join another table when you're done. There aren't extensive waiting lists like in live poker.

It's alot less than 15 minutes when 3 handed....before someone is kicked off table

move the check/call button from the far right to the far left. I clicked it earlier and ended up calling a bet

Also, you have to be for awarding the pot to the worst hand at showdown 10% of the time. Helps the recs and all.

In all seriousness, add more log in security.
I’m all for keeping rakeback grinders away, whatever works best for that.

Naturally, because the orbits go faster. You still need to be removed so the table can fill up.

“Wait for bb” option when returning from sitting out of a table

Add more deposit bonuses/rewards/rakeback. Who are the RB grinders? Where would they even come from? If they are a losing player before RB that means you want them in your game because they should be easily exploited/beat for a decent WR.

Rakeback benefits everyone. It keeps recreationals solvent longer, allows micros players to move up where they pay less rake a hand, and gives regs a steady supply of income in a high variance game so they can start tables and generate rake for the site.

Not having RB and high rake keeps nl20-50 players trapped at those stakes. So much is coming off the table no one moves up anymore.

If you are opposed to RB then you literally believe that "more rake is better" because that's all that removing/not offering RB is...higher effective rake per hand.

You'd imagine they would be coming from mass grinding other sites. Like the people who are grinding the beast on ACR.

Rakeback is good. An across-the-board rake reduction would be way better. Rackback schemes typically only reward the people who grind the most, which makes it more attractive to grind a ton, even if you are a breakeven/slightly losing player. By reducing the rake across the board, everyone who plays gets the max effective rakeback without making it more attractive to mass grind and make the games worse. It also keeps way more money at the tables/in the ecosystem.

Rake is significantly lower than when I started playing in 2017.

What? There are people taking shots at 1/2+ all the time.

Look at the ACR pool and count how many American+Canadian grinders are on there. Then look at the beast leaderboard...there just aren't that many mass-tablers in the US anymore. Even ignoring the beast there's just not many American or Canadian multi-tablers on WPN.

It's probably 3-4 people max that creates this anti-rakeback "omg RB is the bogeyman people will 80 table" sentiment. Also, these people might not even exist, wouldn't play on GP, or already do play there.

Rake reduction is obviously better. But the site should also do promotions to get new players or to get people to put in more hands. Why not both?

Don't think that's true...I'm talking specifically about people moving up through the stakes. Regardless, there'd be more that were able to with RB and it'd be easier to "stick the landing" while moving up.

Remember the last time that happened? Kind of disproves your theory about there being 3-4 rakeback grinders in the US + Canada.

I was talking about ACR...in terms of people on there it's probably 3-4 Americans I would guess, yes. I have no clue about nl25-50 maybe there are lots of micros American grinders on there but I doubt it.

That promotion was poorly done. That being said, I wish they would do the same thing again. It's better than nothing. The fact that people were 20 tabling all day on awful software shows how desperate the player pool is for any kind of reward.

There are heaps of USA based players that used to play on WPN that have avoided it for years due to it being so awful in so many ways. I hated it so much i returned a really good stake in 2015 that I was even on after 6 weeks of grinding those never ending late reg 12hr to complete mtts and bot infested sngs I absolutely hated it and will never play there again. I agree less rake is better for GP. I will also say that if they had some sort of rb program i'd play a lot more there but so would more bots. Online poker disgusts me now, almost everyone ive met in the industry is in it for themselves and very good hustlers or salesmen, if they help you its for their own gain too. "Help the and grow poker community" lmfao yea ok more like help your own bottom lines. It's been cannibalized and even the supposedly trustworthy affiliates on this site are just very good snake oil salesmen from my personal experience. Im also a bit of a jerk and not the most talented poker player n the world so maybe its my fault for not making them enough $ fast enough or speaking up for myself from time to time.
