It is simple like that.
Rakeback, volume based loyality programs were just a ridiculous idea just in 2006+ when they were introdcued no one really was aware of the long term consequences.
888, bodog bovada, maybe unibet, grow because they focus on recs. 888 also as the higher rake, bonuses ... also epn gives bonuses and is relatively fishy .... Revolution was and at least some of the time is, fishy and offer monthly bonuses, but also rb and hud, good software ... Party has half thevips, higher rake than stars and one table max option at nlh but they have not grown because they sort of kicked out most regs who have the last 10 or so years played at stars instead, that is what, like 10 or 20 times biggers, or the next biggest are were ipoker, ongame, party, ftp w some 10k players maybe, and stars w 100k maybe. So, its not better to serve the recs if u can get almost all of them, but if u cant and have a worse software, worse vip, worse rske, regs not intetested enough, then its an idea to serve recs.
Usa players, many other players cant play at stars, bodog gets regs also then as they like fish. Fish might get broke as fast as the costs.
Party has the one table idea, serving both. I would like a four tabling per limit cap at stars. Two at zoom and making zoom more easily clear and playable as normal table where the option just is fast folding, and it not be the main button. But thats because zoom is next to perfect, only notes making isnt as before when the opponent disappears. I have had the idea that zoom should stay as play as many hands per hour as u want but zoom is too good to be kept like that and why would one play zoom when ring games would be better. Better to play four ring games and the two on zoom, at the same time and all problems solved. There are also the one limit higher and lower as ante one can play at the same time. Seems good for all then.
