A few questions:
-Is ACR really as infested with bots as it sounds like it is?
-if so, 6max recommendations? I prefer not to use an anonymous site. But I will if I have to.
- any US facing sites spreading mixed games or non-hold em games?

Thanks.

I understand I am be living in fantasyland, but I am looking for a site accessible from New York State, USA which you can fund with a credit card and can withdraw or deposit at will with no fees. Does such a unicorn exist?

I think Global Poker fits that criteria. They have a subforum here with more info.

They just launched their new software a couple days ago. I haven't played there in months, but from what I've seen, it looks decent.

They have OFC, badeucy/badacey, 2-7, big O and the regular games too.

Not a ton of traffic right after they shut down and then re-launched the new software, but games popping up more and more often as people realize they back open; funds have been secure for years from what I can tell; they've delayed releasing this new software (mac, windows, desktop, mobile I think) for a while; deposits/withdraws are very quick; BTC-only no other crypto

I've played off and on for years but never kept records so I'm not sure I've ever been a long term winner. In Feb I'm taking $1k and putting it on a site and working to slowly run it up. Ill start at NL10 focussing on fast fold zoom or zone or whatever each site calls it. My goal is to move up in stakes at a reasonable rate when my roll gets big enough (100 buy ins). I've been doing well against snowie and studying a lot, so I don't believe I'm a staunch beginner, I just haven't ever taken it slow or really tracked anything.

I don't want to deal with the game security issues at ACR and I've read Carbon has almost no traffic. So, it seems Bovada is the right place. I'm focusing on theoretically sound poker so anon tables aren't much of a problem. Are there any considerations I haven't looked at? Thanks.

Not sure I can edit from the app so....

While I am ok with anon tables I would prefer the chance to use a hud. Its just not a deal breaker

If you're in the USA and you're set on only playing fast fold then it's your only real option at the moment to eventually play fast fold higher than microstakes. BetOnline/SportsBetting is the other network that offers fast fold to American players, but it doesn't get fast fold traffic at higher stakes.

You can track your own play on Bovada, but a HUD for Zone would be useless for tracking opponents.

I think you'll do just fine with Bovada. Good luck!

My attraction to fast fold is volume. I work full time and have a family. So I may only get an hour or two a day if that. I dont want to be grinding a year to make 1k. So I figure I can make some reasonable volume that way without being unbalanced in life.

Volume at fast fold = yes
Lower edge at fast fold = yes

They balance out somewhat IMHO from what I've seen, read, heard.

Title asks the question. Is there any compatible software? I’m at work and was going to try Poker Copilot when I get home . Says it’s compatible with 888 but not 888nj. When I look for my states online I come up as playing on 888nj.

What sites for US players run decent mixed game volume? I'm looking for the limit games that are part of the standard 8game mix.

I've been playing some LO8/Stud8 on WPN but it's not always running and there's sometimes only one table. Bovada client shows they have LO8 but I dunno how to see if it's actually running w/o depositing.

Is 2-7 available anywhere? That's the game I'm most interested in learning right now

I'm pretty sure decent volume is hard to come by for any variant that is not NLHE or PLO. Bovada/Ignition may be worth a try for LHE. For every other variant your best bet would be SWC. They offer mixed games and a lot of the less popular variants.

SWC is really the only place that even runs true mixed games. Volume is small however.

If you’re trying to play 2-7 or any horsebt type mix games (Archie, dramaha, and that stuff), it’s either swcpoker.eu (I like their new software from what I’ve seen but haven’t played it yet)

or

Most of that action is on an agent site. They’re the only agent/club site w all those games and volume is even more than Stars. Pros and cons of the agent/club model come w it obv

They have done big bet mixes that include short deck or pl badeucy and other games. I’ve had fun butchering some hands

I deposited on SWC and it's been nice. No Archie or Dramaha but the lowball mix (2-7, Badugi, Badacey, Badeucy) and the 11-game are fun and the games ran semi-regularly over the weekend. Normally short-handed but I don't mind so much.

ACR and ignition make you install their software to sign up for a new account, as far as I can tell.

Are there any sites that let you sign up and play via the web for US players?

BetOnline/SportsBetting and Global Poker allow you to play through your web browser. I'm not sure about any others.

Intertops also has web based instant play, as does Nitrogen Poker.
