Yep

The games are softer now, but there's just no volume to be had.

Haven't been able to log in now for a few days. Lobby is just frozen when it loads up. Can click on the banners and the beast counter still ticks up but can't click on the cashier, tabs or any tables. Also doesn't say I'm logged in.

Alright, enough is truly enough now:

1) The site's as rigged as ever. The same players strike gold all day and night on all stakes.

2) Bots are everywhere from 2NL on up.

3) There are clearly house players and super users. Always have been and I see more than ever now.

4) There's no explanation for the amount of traffic on here considering that the games at micro and low stakes are unbeatable. There's absolutely no way these same people keep coming on here day in and day out losing to a game they know they can't win at.

The site is absolutely, 100% crooked. Every 5NL table is a 36/24/13, 17/14/9, 18/18/7, etc. That's ridiculous, unbeatable given the rake, and I'm watching players just hit set after set after set on 6+ tables constantly. The same players. Every day.

Why does ANYONE play here?

edit: Over, and over, and over - myself and tons of other players - get into split pots after absolutely insane runouts. I've literally lost a good 3 stacks to split pots in the last 1k hands. Nobody wins but the house here. That the WPN rep still absolutely refuses to respond to the community's clearly stated concerns means he's another total pos IMO. Who cares what else he has to say? Let him call his mother and tell her.

Like getting rid of bots?

Showing cards at showdown like was promised 5 years ago?

Getting better servers/ddos protection/etc?

Not openly mocking the community while doing live streams drunk in costa rica?

Clearly you realize that you have the possibility to become a great huge successful site if you were to start fixing legitimate problems instead of doing dumb **** like the live cage.

The only reason we play on your site currently is because we don't have better options. Is that really why you want players on your site? Because they are forced to play there?

As soon as anything just slightly better becomes available you're going down if you don't change something soon.

Now I don't know all your financials and you could be printing money but that doesn't mean you don't have a lot of room for improvement. Your site in it's current form sucks.

It's really sad that you have treated your players so poorly for so long when you can do so much better.
Yet again, to the WPN Rep who posts here: We don't give one iota of a **** about one thing you have to say unless it's to address this. We literally do not care about your stupid, mindless tournament scheduling. We care about what's quoted above.

Agree x1,000
WPN could be so much better and with tons of traffic - instead it is kind of a laughing stock that will disappear as soon as anything slightly better is available.

I've heard this for years. There are other alternative sites. Still WPN is at/near the top of the pack in terms of player liquidity.

In short, I don't think this theory holds water.

Showing cards at showdown
I am actually against this. I think if cards were shown at showdown the site would become even tougher than it already is due to regs accumulating more data more quickly, data mining, etc.

The fish on this site get chewed up pretty quickly as it is. Accelerating that process would only lessen incoming deposits by reducing the amount of new players who make multiple deposits.

The "fish" get chewed up because the site's rigged.

I'd think that having honest and fair games, void of the bots and cheaters, would be the best way to slow down the speed with which the fish are being chewed up, thereby increasing deposits. But maybe I'm wrong.

You can show some proof from another site that illustrates your belief that showing hole cards in the hand histories can be directly correlated with decreasing deposits?

It seems rather illogical to me that any honest person would be disinterested in transparency.

It's so obvious that these games aren't legit and it has been for a long, long time. It really is unbelievable how blatantly obvious this is and how nothing has changed whatsoever.

Really, really sick of WPN stealing from people.

Literally making millions and can't solve basic sound and login bugs.
You can make this bug less annoying by changing the "time bank countdown" sound to something less harsh, or just disable it altogether.

I enjoy competing against the bots but you have to really feel like the owners of the company are horrible humans for allowing it to go on. It is blatant.

Is there any additional software that can be used to change how note colors are displayed on ACR? As it is I need a magnifying glass to see if I have colored tag on someone.

Was playing 200NL 6max, and I swear to god a player was able to see my cards. He was playing 80% of hands preflop, literally never folded a flop, bet every turn/river when I missed and folded every time I had the goods.

Username is Marine87. I reported to ACR security form, so we'll see what comes of this.

I've seen this before, on PokerStars back when Americans could play. They started out with the basic 9-player NLHE SNGs with 10 minute blinds, but it grew from there. SNGs with anywhere from 6 up to 360 players, turbos and hyperturbos, double or nothings--all kinds of types, sizes, speeds and variants. It got to the point where players who made a living from the standard SNGs were complaining that there were often not enough players to get one started.

Poker players love to chase after the shiny new object and the sites are happy to dangle it in front of them, which often doesn't turn out well for those playing the foundational games. Even with a large player pool like the one PokerStars had, you can only cut it into so many pieces before the whole things starts to fall apart.

ODs are the pet game of somebody with decision power at WPN. They've been propping them for years with 100-200% rakeback via SNC.

I think mod maniac changes this but you can also do it yourself if you can make your own icons.

Its pathetic that wpn still hasnt figured out how to program basic addition into their software in plo, so that when 3betting out of the bb preflop the sizing is wrong. In both cash and tourneys. If the blinds are 1-2 and the button opens to 6, the bb can make it 19, not 18 (which it is now). They dont count the sb which ****s up the odds for the button to peel the 3bet and changes the spr postflop.
In a tourney if the button minraises to 50k and the blinds are 12.5k/25k, and the sb folds I can only 3b out of the bb to 150k which is idiotic. Theres another 12.5k in the pot so the raise should be to 167,500. This isnt very complex, its basic math.

Its like I know I'm beating a dead horse explaining how poorly the site is ran, but can they at least pretend to give a **** and at least fix the easy things like correctly programming the basic math of raises in games like plo? its so tilting.

jesus Christ I switched to this site from Ignition because I was sketched out about it but you guys make this site seem horrible. So far I haven't seen near as many bad beats as I have with Ignition and was liking the site so far until I saw that the entire Heads Up cash lobby is made up of 4 players
Tholliop, WalkAllOvrU, z00, and someone else I cant remember but they are certainly bots as they are in 20 plus HU tables each.

*

this is RIDICULOUS

the ENTIRE 25/50 down thru 1/2 Heads Up cash is filled with the same 4 players.

Thalliup, WalkAllOvrU, z00, and chintrogdin

like these guys can play 20 HU tables at once?
noboby on ACR can even play HU without playing a bot.

if someone could just figure out a way to trick/beat these bots they could make a lot of money. I have no idea how good they are
