5Dimes ends support for EPN - Opens independent room 'Grand Poker' - Page 3 - Internet Poker

sounds sick, nice.

I don't really love the old minted software (bad memories) but it was def playable back in the days.

@mrdoz: with recent stars changes people try to multi-site more, that's what I'm doing at least.

Sorry I'm an American so I wasn't aware of any changes to stars. But a lot of us USA-ers multi site, so who knows. The software seems nice, but I have been getting disconnected a ton for some strange reason.

Ya I was just on donking around a little bit ago. Two 25nl, one 50nl, and one small 200nl, so I guess well see how it plays out.

The Rakeback via the goofy tourneys isn't bad. If my calculations are right it's either 50% if you cash for the $10 or 100% if you cash for the $20 assuming the chart of 10 points per $1 in rake paid is correct. Just wish there were some $200 NL that ran. I really liked the $2.5-$5 NL game but one tabling is a bit boring. Hopefully it continues to run though.

Has anyone received their pop points from the old fish pond/epn? It said to contact support in order to get them transferred over. I talked to them Sunday and they haven't came yet.

I've had a big VietBet ad on the top of 2+2 for a few days now, looks like they're actively after the sharks.

I'm not really, a lot of good players were just using 5Dimes because it had BTC and it was easy to move money between 3 player pools. The fishpond or w/e was pretty small. Hopefully some of the sportsbook players join the fun.

With that said, I've got some pretty awful players to sit me when I've started tables, played with you a bunch at full tables though.

Yeah, the few times I played there I didn't either, but I didn't play the fishpool or w/e much. If they get some decent tournaments on there the fishies will come swimming.

Yeah so this poker room is by far the best in terms of the software. Too bad there was only 30 players playing/3 tables. Not worth depositing until the traffic is worth it

Is this VietBet that has ads at the top of my page apart of this room somehow? Confused. When I searched them I was led here by iPlayPLO post mentioning them.

Yes, VietBet is one of 5 Diimes' brands. I can't explain why they've decided to use it on 2+2 though.

Is Grand Poker part of a network? If so, what sites are they sharing with?

Bitcoin is a new method for VietBet, that is why you don't see it displayed within your player acct as an option yet. You will need to contact the VietBet Customer Support Team via live chat or email to arrange a BTC transfer.

You know there is other sites to play besides Bet Online, right? You're comparing it to 1 of the worst sites, so of course it looks amazing.

Cash outs on 5 Dimes are a lot better than WPN.
