No clue what trust pilot scores mean. Higher is worse?

EDIT: Just looked at TP for the first time. I see that is actually good, but your comments made me wonder what you meant.

GP is as good as we've got. It is frustrating to go on a 6 month cooler as I recently did, but I spent the last month working on some things and that plus maybe variance has swung in my favor has things looking better.

Oh, and traffic seems decent at the moment as well. Little uptick the last week or so.

That just seems very odd! Especially with how the global army attacks anyone on here that says they are not legit. Then to go on trustpilot and do the same thing. This is just very odd!


Global is like poker variance on steroids.

Most reviews/likes/followers can be bought these days. Wouldn't read too much into it.

Pretty much every decision since then has contributed to their demise.

As the only "legal" option that is available across the nation for US players, they have dropped the ball.

I liked paypal but I redeem sweeps cash and it is in my bank account the next day. I hated the new felt at first but got used to it and seems natural now. I don't mind paying rake, I am still making bank here. I don't have to worry about the deposit limits because I keep my balance up by beating the soft games. I play for a week, redeem sweeps cash, leave enough in my account to lather, rinse and repeat.

In the meantime, the site is down about 90% from it's peak traffic just a few years ago. There was a time where there were 5-10 10/20 tables running. Now, you are lucky if 500nl has a table going.

In my market, there are fewer NL live games than just a few years ago, so some of that is due to market demand.

Not saying the traffic is good but there is almost always a few 500NL tables running, and the higher stakes cash is dead because they made a $12K/mo deposit maximum.

Well, the max deposit thing is a bad decision.



This is 7PM Eastern Time on a Sunday. Ghost town.

I think they do not care about poker much. They make their money from casino. Their net income increased from 70 mil to 200 mil last year lol.

yea they are absolutely murdering the poker on global. i know its the deadest time of the year but all of the guarantees are bad. they flattened the payout structures so nobody can make any money really just breakevenish unless you bink something on a sunday. the structures are terrible now too i dont know if they removed some blind levels but lately all final tables for the turbo rebuy tournmanets its extremely rare to see a chipleader with more then 10bb. everyone is just in a foldathon bouncing around ~5 bb stacks in a rebuy is just ridiculous poor structure. this wasnt an issue a year ago. i do notice most of the big donator fish are gone , most tables seem filled with the same low roi/breakeven regs who only profited in years passed because of sheer volume of fish, now all their leaks means they are wasting their time even logging into the client anymore.

But isn't that the point anyways to Bink a tourney? I mean, from a .25c satty I made $25 finishing 77th in the Sunday Eleven... Not a bad profit for finishing 77th... I know that ain't much money but the ROI is good. Their home game ain't bad and their bounties imo are okay also... But I also haven't played much elsewhere due to where I am and also play mostly micro so take that for what it is worth. I am a cheap degen lol

it just really brutal for those who have been playing on there for a couple years its very obvious the change that happened around july of 2021 when they removed a lot of of their best mtts in favor of low roi stuff. then sometime later they flattened the payout structures. looking at the top 5 mtt volume players for 2022 they are barely up 20k...8 months into the year. thats just miserable. and there is no excuse for it either, bodog serves the same playerbase and is getting 10x's the number of entrants in most of their equivalent mtts. raising rake, capping deposits, flattening payouts removing blind levels just kills a site off.
