*** Unofficial Microgaming Poker Network (MPN) Thread *** - Page 15 - Internet Poker

I am an NA player on the network, I noticed that for me at about 8pm EST (1am for London) that sometimes the tables will die at this time, and sometimes there will still be about 10 games going on into the night. It seems to be completely random, as I have tried to monitor it but there seems to be no logical reason as to why.

Also, I noticed that Friday night isn't particularity great either, when you'd think it'd be one of the busiest times.

Someone tell me I'm wrong please lol

They have issues when you deposit to poker and it ends up in the casino. Bonuses doesn't allways appear right away. Cashouts are usually in 48hrs to ewallets but can take longer. Support is meh. Personally don't play there even they offer the reloads. You can get basically the same return from bigger skins.

Today I woke up and received this message from Betsson and also from Betsafe:

Hi,

"We regret to inform you that your account has been closed and the Betsson website will no longer be available. We apologise for any inconvenience caused."

I asked them why my account was closed and they answered: "I regret to inform you that this decision has been made and we do not have more details about the reason why your account was closed. We appreciate your understanding and we apologize for any inconvenience!"

I was able to withdraw and I never violated any rules, is there something that can be done here? Has anybody had the same problem?

I'm actually playing there but is not as bad, but the costumer service is a little bit slow that's true.

Welcome everyone. I'm from Poland, what skin of MPN would you recommend the most?
Im thinking about deposit there 500 $ and after my "little problems" with cashout on Wincake I have to be sure that pokerroom is trustworthy

Second thing is where first deposit bonus I can release for the longest time?
Third: on every MPN skins are similar promotions and amount of rake?

Thanks in advance for help, cheers mates!

More Fee Tweaks

Since earlier this year we’ve been under a lot of pressure from our poker rooms to add fees to rebuys and add-ons in tournaments. There are many arguments for and against this change, some of which are flaky and some of which are undeniable. Two which are definitely true are:

Longer tournaments cost more to host. Bandwidth and hosting are two of the largest costs to any poker site. The argument is therefore that we should charge more for longer sessions – and rebuy tournaments are typically longer than the freezeout equivalent.
The more money is put into play, the higher the cost (in processing fees, risk, compliance etc). The argument is that because rebuy tournaments put more money into play they should be charged more.
During September’s Universal Championship of Poker, we added fees to rebuys and add-ons by accident (this is easier than it sounds, our tournament creation tool ‘helps out’ by automatically adding a 10% fee to all buy-ins, rebuys and add-ons, and this is easy to miss). We took the opportunity to make an experiment of the mistake, which unfortunately proved inconclusive.

We intend to run a proper experiment in January 2017, whereby fees will be added to a selection of the MPN’s rebuy tournaments. Each tournament will state clearly in its description that it is part of the experiment, along with the price of a rebuy and add-on. You can help us out by sending any feedback you have about this change to your poker room. We will take everything into account before deciding whether to implement such fees permanently.

The counter to the above arguments is of course that shorter games should be charged less. I agree with that, which is why at the same time we will reduce the fees in Super Turbo scheduled tournaments.

Looks like it is time to get away from MPN network for good. Awaiting for some not-so-greedy site to give us again non-raked rebuys.

1) Paf.com or any site in the Betsson Group (Betsson, Nordicbet, Triobet, Betsafe et al) are considered to be the safest ones.
2) Most of these rooms have 60 days, I think.
3) Rake, yes, the same. Promotions no - only like half of them have MPNPT. All sites participate in the network promotions (obv) but all of them also have different site-specific promos.

Funny how decrease in rake he calls decrease or reduce but increase in rake he calls "an experiment" or "a tweak".

Otoh, I wish Amaya's pricing of Beat the Clock were indeed an experiment. Alas it isn't - it seems an ultimate decision.

I do appreciate the reduction of the Fish Party jackpot fee that I was pushing for in July when that game appeared.

We have been dealing with Poker Loco for many years, but it's very disturbing that I have to report Poker Loco is NOT safe now. They owe us large commissions for Oct/November with no reply via email or skype.

I'd cash out now if you can.

Micro Gaming have just decided to ban all rake races across all rake back affiliates, even the poker rooms themselves aren't allowed to host a (private) rake race. What the hell are they thinking here?

They were steadily building up a nice player base and now this happens. This will hurt most everyone in the region of 5-25% a month.

I guess now that they have built up a player pool the greed sets in, did they not take notice what happened to Ipoker network and all the players that left?
