There seems to be a lot of talk about Betraiser on 2p2 lately. However with a 24 hour peak of <20 players, it would lead me to believe that those pushing the site here aren't even playing on it themselves. So perhaps people should lead the way, instead of just telling other people what to do?

I'm not putting money on a small site with no players, end of. I've already lost thousands due to shady online ventures (FU MICROGAMING).

LOL. Id sooooo love a site that would in some way compete with rake structure, all they do now is offer vip/rakeback and RB seems to be slowly phased out or reduced. Why not just a $1 cap at the micros and $2 cap everywhere else? IM kinda surprised where not seeing this kind of competition on the healthier Euro sites honestly.

I'm pretty sure, atleast in the beginning, sites like betraiser will be full of regs, which probably makes it even less profitable than just a regular site. Fish don't know/don't care about rake and like 99% of all the new players end up at stars/FT/big eurosites.

betraiser is soft. it actually has fish. they splash around money won in freerolls etc. they just don't stick around cos there's not much traffic yet.

just my 2 cents against that argument

and yes maybe at the beginning but imagine if this site took off... (maybe a pipe dream)
