[Pokerbros] Discussion thread - Page 66 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Your CPU and RAM are never the problem with emulators. The weakest link is always the graphics card. That being said, you can get away with a pretty basic laptop if you're only running a couple of emulators. And, as far as crappy PCs go, the big plus with PokerBros compared with other emulator-based apps is that you can play up to 4 tables per emulator- so even with a Commodore 64 you can still squeeze in 8 tables.

An agent i use has offered to give me an agent account so i can have two accounts and he said i could see the data, the rake paid myself .
Soundslike a good idea right? I also got highest rakeback.

I was thinking about doing this so i could play six to eight tables at once.

I haven't gotten much response from anyone at Absolute 808 since this payment so I want to keep people aware of their situation before you decide where to play.

Which part of my post are you agreeing to disagree with? Because nothing you posted contradicts what I wrote.

You graphics card is indeed shitty, and while your PC may be able to run 14 emulators (at a sub performance), your card is certainly the weakest link, and your set up is inefficient.

Sub performance? All runs smooth (at 60 fps, it's set to default in the options for multi) which is all I need really.
1070 is unnecessary.

Hmm, so you think that a laptop with with 32GB RAM and a slightly better graphics processor could run 6-8 emulators smoothly? One can be had for around $1200 I think.

I bought a basic $500 laptop earlier this year with a pretty basic graphics card which can run 3 just fine. Not sure what the difference is between mine and some of the other systems that are having trouble with more than 1.

Laptops overheat. You either need a decent desktop or a top notch state of the art laptop. If laptop isnt topnotch you will get problems. From my experience 1.2k wont be enough

Yes, but judging by the comments in this thread you would have been led to believe that 3 emulators isn't possible on a basic laptop like mine so I'm still a bit skeptical. I guess 8 might be stretching it, but I could see 5-6 emulators being possible on a 1.2k machine.

From my experience up to 3 will run on almost any system just fine. For 6 you need power. For more than 6 you need alot if power. Again, personsl experience w fairly strong laptop that still did overheat...

At the end of the day, you basically have two types of poker players- players who make a profit and players who play for fun. If they're a semi-pro+, why skimp on what is basically not much more than a single buy-in at 200NL (eBay) to [usually] dramatically improve their work environment.

Is there a way to bet without it adding the pot to your bet?
For example when i iso a limp from the sb it will add the BB amount to whatever bet i typed in.
Been making a few bet sizing blunders because of this.

I just upgraded to a desktop. After installing Windows 10 and LDplayer, when I open Poker Bros the game lobby is missing 95% of the games regardless of what filter in using. It still works fine on my old computer.

Has anyone else had this problem, or have an idea for a solution?

Hope you get this resolved.

I cashed out my final balance from my account and had no issues from another union

I head this also. Multiple agents and even clubs who have been blacklisted, removed by other clubs/unions who are still allowed to operate in Midway Union. Would definitely steer clear altogether and play in the other US unions if you can. Just my two cents.

What would be my best bet for an emulator on a MacBook Pro?

I installed Blue Stacks and didn't like how the app ran so I continued to play on my tablet.

I removed it and tried Nox, couldn't get the app to load at all.

I reinstalled Blue Stacks and am having all kinds of problems trying to run the app.

Thoughts?

Unfortunately, there are quite a few scumbags in this industry. The agents having control over player funds is obviously conducive to a situation that is just too tempting for these shortsighted thieves to run off with player funds, or make up some bullshit accusations like D Bekavac and his Midway monkeys did.

agents like timstone tell everyone to do their research etc etc on agents but there is close to 0 info online about any agent anywhere. so pls post to stop people getting scammed in future.

tbh if they have been "blacklisted" then im sure theres enough proof to post if they ever challenge it so it should be allowed to post here imo.
