so through one of our wallets essentially. We will look at our direct opportunities and speaking to providers all the time, but a constant challenge with banks more so than regulators.

Currently only playing at Pokerstars.

Anyway registered and looking forward to seeing this site grow/develop. I miss the how good the old Pokerstars support was you guys were amazing.

Appreciate that mate. I agree with GG Staking System. it's really good. P2P Transfers by definition with regulator are used for staking, so why not make the staking a system a bit more intuitive, informative, inclusive. I like. You're right though, as a site with some basic Table UI missing and no Omaha, it's a little bit out for us. We are however building on the P2P functionality with smarter product for agents and affiliates, so staking could evolve from this effort already in flight.

Good to hear still firing away at PokerStars. Will always be close to heart. I hope for sure our new team can deliver in real-time the type of service the community got used to back in the day.

Ah I see. Guess you're right. We didn't cut the market rate in half when beating it, but by being equal or lower than the market, AND giving rakeback on top, we achieve the same thing. Furthermore I think Stars are monthly, GG is weekly, but we are daily.

There is a number of business, reward/marketing, promotional and accounting reasons to not just have lower Turnover and Revenues.

As mentioned though, we go with rake-free if it's heads-up and we also have a no-flop, no-drop policy of not raking pre-flop action.

Lastly, we changed our model so it's not just 5% (cash) or 10% tourneys... In fact it's often much lower and only really caps with significant action.

We only have one limit set that is charging 5% rake... $2.50/$5 NL

I'm very confident noone is going to NOT choose us because of Rake, but I get your point.

Thanks for the reply Heytch yeah after so many years 15 I believe at this point with the main options out there what they are Pokerstars overall(despite the meh/slow support) are still the best option with the lowest rake and well a trusted 15 past history kinda hard to beat. With that said really looking forward to see how the old Pokerstars supports team does with 4poker and how you guys develops the place. It's starting with a very good and one of the best support teams that's for sure. Hope those 2 freerolls are running this afternoon. I've been busy all week but got today so will finally get a chance to actually play today.

You guys will get all them little things sorted out quite quickly I'm sure. You guys were/are the gold standard for support. Yeah realized the staking wasn't close and quite a ways off just feel strongly over having/needing it as for me it's one of the biggest draws the site has to wanna play have money on there. I think it's likely very underestimated how many players/people like enjoy staking others in MTT's. Specially if I didn't have time to play the Tourney myself at the time. I was actually the short time I was on GG did better at staking others in MTT's then I did playing myself lol. Wish GG didn't have such insane rake and wasn't quite as scummy. I simply don't trust them so don't play......still that staking they have is a big draw too me though.

Another thing I always enjoyed about Pokerstars is the SnG's 27, 45, 90 and 180 player both turbo and non-turbo offerings.

Here's something for convenience. Add a remember password check box when logging in.

No issue with the no HUD rule even though I use one for Pokerstars now for many years I never used any so no biggie for me. I do have a question regarding HUDs as I play at Pokerstars and use a HUD when I do. Will players be capable of playing at 4poker and say another site like Pokerstars and use a HUD at the one site that allows HUDS while not using the HUD at 4poker? The HUD would still have to run but as long as it wouldn't ever be connected to the client/tables and collecting data.

Or would you recommend either not playing on both sites at the same time or just not running the HUD at all if I have to play both at both sites at the same time. Asking cause I don't wanna end up with any issues in this regard or have ever have trouble if/when cashing out.


Cheers!!!

These types of sngs u described are only running well with a large player pool. No way a 180 man will run regularly on a new site. U need to understand that player pools on new, more or less unknown sites are very small in the beginning.

And as far as i know gg rakes less for mtts than stars so im not sure what "insane" rake u are talking about when reffering to mtts on GG.

Well obviously. Kinda figured I wouldn't need to explain that and that it was more of a long term idea. As Pokerstars got rid of most their SnG's of that nature. I for one miss them and would like any site I play at in the future to have them offered when it makes sense for the site of course.

Was talking GG cash rake. I should have been more clear here.


Cheers!!!

Short review after my first experience playing. Really enjoyable despite the limited card/table design options. Found the animations pretty smooth was some lag with awarding the chips to the winner but I'm sure all this will get smoothed and sorted out in short order as improvements as made/added. Good looking and simple interface reminds my a lot of Pokerstars and UB in this way. The site overall is much better then my game was today 14th and 13th place respectfully. In my defense was pretty card dead and missed my short stack shoves.

Good site and very good start just need some traffic and some improvements which most have already been mentioned here or else where so you guys are aware of so don't need repeating.

Sit & Go was where I played most of my poker back in Pre-SuperNova days before working for PokerStars. I tend to agree though they require a lot of liquidity, and even with that, I think the game has evolved such that people prefer to play a 3-handed winner take all with jackpot, or MTT. Not much in between.

I can see SNG making a comeback when we can get our long term loyalty and VIP Programme right and people want more “tournament” hands.

More 2024 than this year. Goal this year is to develop the offering, keep building and growing.

Appreciate the report and hope you turn the 14th and 13th into cashes next time out!

Think you’ve hit nail on the head on what we wanted to open with. Classic. Clean. Something to build on.

Animation has been a bit of an ongoing battle but we’re slowly winning that battle!

Haven’t gone too hard yet in driving traffic or going to market properly as bit of core development still to do, to what is very much a BETA product.

Cheers for jumping in early. Hope you make a deep run at our June 3/4 freeroll into the World Series Main!

Are you available in Canada yet? I'm an American that travels to Canada quite a lot and play while i'm there. I have accounts on GG and Party Poker that I use, but would love to play on your site instead.

Yep - can play from Canada (Ontario is state blocked). No probs - American players can play abroad with other residences 👍🏻

Unfortunately not yet Jaydeef. High on our list of licenses of interest but is quite a complex one, so likely 2024

As our Ts & Cs only address a few prohibited territories and not those who are pending license, I will share those we will address with local licensing over the coming months and years;

Blocked (pending license)

- Belgium
- Bulgaria
- Estonia
- Denmark
- France
- Germany
- Italy
- Netherlands
- Ontario
- Portugal
- Romania
- Spain
- Sweden
- UK
- US (state by state)

I wish Australia was on that list but remains not open for Poker with sports betting only. We won’t put any of these on our 2 global licenses.

We will prioritize those we can get to market quickly, AND those permitted for play within a global liquidity.

Most of the rest of world are open.

Current list of countries open is 164. We will hit 170 when operationally ready to open a few extra Asian and Chinese speaking territories.

why is this clown advertising in a forum to people that are disqualified from using the product? why not list the few countries that can access it, and not waste everyone's time?

Will overlook the clown comment because I’ve been dealing with anonymous keyboard warriors for years.

Countries not accessible (and rationale) is easier and much shorter than the list that is available. We’ll open everywhere/anywhere as soon as we can - if it’s not already open. Sorry if that doesn’t apply to you.

Noting the above concern, I will pause on any sort of promotional info, but keeping the thread open for any questions and feedback, and will check-in with material updates, notably as new countries open up as we break out of BETA.

What has happened to the Daily events? They've been replaced by Step satellites into $1Ks and $5Ks?

I asked on the 4Forum but the request is pending for almost 3/4 of a day.

Hey, are you going to try to get a license in the Czech Republic? If not what is your stance on a player located in a prohibited country connecting via VPN? Perma ban + funds confiscation?

Really sorry to hear that and will report into our poker ops team! Same day response should be worst-case on the forum… has been a bit mad for everyone in our small team, getting ready for May.

Regarding Daily’s - it’s ever changing as we learn from and respond to what is happening to our events while our schedule is new and liquidity is building.

One of the big factors is awaiting next release to get some filters into our lobby so people can better manage what they want to see. Hard for all of satellite, low, medium and super high roller to coexist at the moment, but that will be fixed soon.

One of our other goals for May is that we really want to try and get as many of our lower stake now regulars as possible into one of the big events in May. With our May Sunday majors beyond bullish and generous, we think we can form a really good field size where everyone who joined in April can get a fair crack at an entry!

If the much smaller daily GTD events prove popular of course we will consider returning them through the month once we have filters so those who wish to focus on the bigger events, still can clearly and easily.

Look out for the 44 to be added to the Main Event & High Roller soon too, as that should be a decent overlay opportunity if not just overall good value.
