The only time I ever had to show ID in a casino was in AC when I was 3 years underage. And even then, you just get turned away or escorted out, and can try again at a different entrance.

Obviously not in the US because over here they actually take this matter serious. In fact, the casinos were in a **** load of trouble if they didn't check for ID or member card. UK is a bit more laxed.

They even check the bags here, so you cannot show up with chips and slide them into your stack or flush them down the toilet later on.

Not true and I have about 8 casinos in my area. You don't even have to have a players club hard to enter which is what they are called. The only one you have to have a player 's club card is the Seminole Hardrock and that is required only to play poker and seat at the table not to enter the casino.

Magic City Casino go in ask for table buy chips and sit. No ID check. Same for Mardi Gra...same for Gulfstream....same for Hialeah Park...same for Rio...same for Dania....etc....etc....you must be living in a polce state.

Ok Not true unless you consider South Florida area not in the US. Obviously you can't bring your own chips that is stupid statement. We are talking about entering the casino and playing not bringing chips in a bag to play with. Nope they dont do a strip search to see if you are bringing chips. You are being silly. It appears that you don't play live poker.

I like my internet poker like I like my women...

Or he was making a bit of a light-hearted reference to a couple of well-known recent incidents where players smuggled extra chips in to tournaments.

It appears that you don't read NVG.

I am aware of that. But that does not happen very often. The point is that he claims that you have to show ID everytime to enter and that simply is not true. The conversation started by him disputing what Micon said about plaing live poker. Obviously you can't bring in chips to online poker so I don't see he point.

this isn't even close to being true

Right, he finally had to back down on that point.

You know how those Europeans are, always assuming the world revolves around them, unlike us worldly North Americans.

They've never had a (decent) Mac client but we were able to stream the site online. Hopefully that remains the case.

LOL. I apologize to you and to him for saying he made a stupid statement. I just don't understand how somebody can be so adamant without really knowing. Arguing in a forum is a waste of time. Will try to avoid it in the future. That is why I have not posted for a while until this SwC stuff which affects me personally.

Sarcasm and irony are such a neat thing innit.

I very much prefer the European approach though, but that should have been quite obvious already.

As pointed out before, the Europeans always think their way is the only way
but who cares, this thread is about Caribbean relaxed no problem man based poker, with features and games not even regulated sites have...SwC coming online in 24-48 hours...free chips to the first players coming on...the poker Gestapos should concentrate on not losing track of ISIS trained terrorists, as happened in France, and let the mild mannered, not violent free thinkers make the world a better place.

If an idea has to be enforced with guns, then it is not a good idea.

Free chips to the first players you say?

Looking at the website promos, Table Starter Rakeback tables mentions 9 max ring games specifically but I assume table starter will still apply to 6 max as before?

After hearing what excess Nevada is willing to implement to squash even the smallest competitor it, at least for me, puts them a little higher on the suspect list for some of the DDOS attacks that have been made against unregulated online sites.

Yes free chips to the first players that download and start playing. It is posted on their thread on another site. Don't know about table starter.

Had not thought of that. But when you consider that at the same time that they broke the door a server in Romania went down then that makers the DDOS attacks more plausible of having a connection to the Gestapos. If that's the case the grand opening may be attacked too.

Yeah, 6 max tables still count. Think it was just a mistake on the site, they already fixed it.

What's with still offering the Table starter??
Surely in a 'new and improved' version there should be auto-table starting whenever a table is opened. Makes MTT really difficult. In any case, I hope they clear up the clutter in the lobby with a decent Filter.

Some screen shots would be a good PR move.

I thought you had emphatically stated that you would not be depositing because of Micon. Did you change your mind or are you angling more negativity? Don't even understand what you are trying to say. What does table starting have to do with MTTs.

Wat?

Example: MTT SNGs. You're first to register. Immediately another table opens that you can do same. Continue for as long as you want, and as each tornie comes starts it auto-joins your stack of games. Common practice on FTP and Stars, for example. If table-starter is only way to open new tables, I imagine even you can see the associated problems. Similarly for other games.

This is to say nothing of the Lobby clutter resulting from the hordes of krill whores..

And as for my reasons and intentions: none of your business, sir!

We are about to enter Twighlight Zone Poker.You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension - a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into the Twilight Zone Poker.There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.
