Curious if there's any issues playing on any of the sites from Oregon?

Also curious if you folks have recommendations for sites that have good tournaments as well as sites that have good non No-Limit Holdem Games. Omaha, Mixed games, limit games etc.?

Thanks very much!

All offshore US facing poker rooms are available to players in Oregon. The largest of which are Bovada > Carbon > Americas Cardroom/BlackChip/True > FullFlush/PokerHost > JuicyStakes > SealsWithClubs

Mixed games don't run very much on any US site, Carbon spreads HORSE and whatnot though.

Fixed limit holdem and omaha run somewhat on Bovada and Carbon but not much elsewhere.

where in carbon is the hud ??
i can not find it....
thanks

Bottom left hand corner of Player Admin page.

Have the same question about Maryland.
I don't see any recommended rooms at the first page of this thread.

Thanks!

What are the options for New York players?

Bovada and Carbon have told me they are not accepting deposits from New York players.

Sites available to you in NY would include most WPN skins, most EPN skins, Intertops (w/invitation) and bitcoin poker site Seals With Clubs.

Are there any restrictions for US players in South Carolina or Georgia? What would the best options be there for a midstakes cash player relocating back from abroad?

No restrictions in either of those states.

Bovada, Carbon, ACR/BCP/True, Seals, Full Flush, SBing depending on what stakes, whether you want HU/6m/FR, NLHE or PLO... whether you want rakeback, soft games, good software to multitable or whatever.

Ok guys Ive been a reg on wsop.com NV for some time and there having technical issues so I wont be playing there anytime soon...

I'm aware of UP aka ultimate joke but traffic is terrible and the display and software is crap...I heard of the soft games on bovada but apparently it wont accept registration from NV address...

I'm also aware that I live in Las Vegas and can go play a live game almost anytime I want but I truly enjoy playing while Im suppost to be working LOL..any other sites out there for NV residents?? besides wsop,UP,Bovada

Intertops (w/invitation) and Seals With Clubs bitcoin poker. Neither of which is bigger than what you have access to in Nevada. You might find that your best option is multi-siting and picking the best games from all of your available options

Are these bitcoins still alive? I've read about 3 months ago that their exchangers will be seized soon.

I want to deposit about $1K to Seals and wonder if it is easy to exchange bitcoins to real $$$. Does anybody here keep such bankroll in bitcoins?

Thanks.

Playing Poker on BookMaker----No Value

Decided I wanted to try Bookmaker as an online poker room. Eh, first the genuine bad beat jackpot which no one offers online anymore was removed the first of the year. The cash game competition is difficult especially heads-up. That marketing line about plenty of fish in this room is complete total lie. When you are lucky enough to find a game going as the traffic is minimal. The tournaments are a really poor value compared to Bovada and you have to wait forever for a typical nine person 50%/30%/20% $20 sit-n-go. Customer service is excellent but everything else especially for poker is horrible. I literally waited for hours for a tourney to start only to have it canceled because BookMaker was going to lose money on the overlay. Ugh, horrible waste of time. This site poker room manager needs to be fired yesterday no wonder the pokeroom in this place is dead. Wish I would have read review like this. Software is excellent same as BCP and America's. Everything else was terrible. Only played poker no sports betting.Waste of time and money. Get your promotions going and your tournaments going like Bovada.

I've started to use coins just about a month ago. All I can say is that it is really damn fast and handy. It is like internet banking.
Bitcoin exchange rate was unpredictable a year ago but now it seems like everything is more or less stable.

I keep smth about $300-$350 there so far.

Betcoin is another good bitcoin option for the fact they offer the winning poker network tournaments.

I do not recommend Betcoin. Currently they are very poorly managed when it comes to poker. I say this after having a few discussions with the affiliate manager and the general manager. I was thoroughly unimpressed with some of the goings on over there.

Can you link me to where this is proven? Would be interested, I have not had any problems there, seems they fixed the connection problems from about a week ago.

You want a link that proves that I had conversations with Betcoin management and found them lacking good business practices?

--
Kahn

No sorry, thought it was some other facts that could be proven to stay away from network, like not getting deposits/withdraw, lack of security, etc.

WPN network has been working perfectly. Hope it goes well for all the USA fellows. Cheers

Betcoin is not on the Winning Poker Network, it's on the Winning Tournament Network. Betcoin only shares tournaments and sngs, not cash games.

Understood, I am only a mtt player myself, as long as they can keep getting withdrawals processed without a problem, and can keep their connection issues to a minimum I'm fine here with betcoin only because I like the option of playing the wpn tournaments using bitcoin, but I do understand that there is some things they need to get it together on, looking at their community forums seems like some players are leaving until they fix certain things, and their support.

I used to play on lock, never really liked it, but what am I gonna do?

I was on lock the other day for the first time in a while and it was empty.

Wheres everyone at?

Get off of Lock - they're a scam. If you ever try to cash out you never will.

I'm in the Baltimore area and I play on Seals With Clubs and BetCoin. Both are bitcoin sites.

much obliged!!
