Guys the sites just launched so be patient and stop spamming the sites. Just take a 5 minute break and relax. This happens all the time when a site gets slammed with a lot of traffic at once. Give it 5 minutes. You aren't going to miss anything.

Same with me. Also on Borgota, when I click on a table (I haven't deposited or anything), it says that they detected that I'm not located in NJ so I won't be able to play. I'm in Montclair, so not close to the state border.

You likely do NOT have to be using Wi-Fi, you just need Wi-Fi capabilities on your computer. If you have that, make sure your location is turned on (let me know if you need help with this).

if you don't have Wi-Fi capabilities on your desktop, you can actually buy a stick for about $8-10. Its possible that some sites may even give you one.

I'm having problems now too.

"Remote control software was detected on your machine. Due to regulations, remote control software cannot be running at the same time as the poker application. If you want to continue playing, close the remote control software and login again."

No clue what they mean. I'm not running anything right now, not even PT. Also:

"We are having trouble validating your location. To retry, please exit and log in again. If you still receive this error message, you can select Play Money in the lobby or try our mobile app."

...but I live 25 miles inland from the shore in Monmouth county.

I expected some issues, but this is starting out as an overall trainwreck. Only 40 minutes in to the softlaunch so far though, so not panicking or anything, but this isn't going to instill a ton of confidence into the more casual crowd just looking to play table games after the buzz they've been occasionally hearing on the news and the such lately.

If you have any remote control software on your computer its likely running in the background. Most cmmon ones are logmein and go to meeting. If you need help finding it and turning it off, let me know.

What a shame that there are people holding invites to all the different games. How greedy.

Why does the Borgata seem like the VIP program is so terrible?

So looks like WSOP and 888 are different player pools. Wouldn't let me use the same screenname though.

I enter 888.com in my browser address bar or even click the link after a google search and it immediately closes out that tab.

Also, on the WSOP (888) page, when I click on real money I only see it talking about nevada.

Any deposit bonuses, I thought I saw a 1:1 up to $500 in something somewhere (maybe for ultimate). I guess I will sign up for one site at least for the soft play.
Not a match at ultimate - it's a drawing for 3 prizes, 500, 250 and 100.

Believe everyone who signs up gets $5

Wow thanks. Are you sure you're able to play though? I'm downloading now. Which one should I try?
