I suggested for years they cut down on stallers by reducing time bank for everybody in turbo tournaments. Seems like a easy software fix, but they won't do it.

even with the table maximized for the entire screen i do not get the option to type in my actual bet. what in the ****. non synched breaks are bad enough.
this happens for me in SnG but only sporadically...can u use slider?

Happens to me a decent amount in MTTs. Slider is an imperfect substitution, but it's frustrating.

Usually the ones complaining are the fish and the micro-donks

Meanwhile I stack loot

After the games on here being extremely soft for a while now, I see that weekday nights are terrible compared to weekends. The 10NL and 25NL games were more reg infested on this network tonight than I've ever seen them before. It was like being on WPN.

Hopefully this doesn't become a new trend because the games were really going great for a while.

Does Ignition accept UK players? I'm assuming not but thought I'd see.

Games have always been better on weekends live and online. Weathers alot nicer now in most places so ppl are gettin out and doin other things. Im guessin at the stakes you mentioned there are probaly alot of bots as well

since bovada/ignition restricts cash games to 4 tables, can you open up both software and play on 8 tables?

Is there really a bot issue at 10 and 25NL here?

Depends to what extent would qualify as an issue. There is certainly bots here as there is at all sites. How many there are is likely impossible for any of us to say due to the games being anonymous. The amount of recreational players here makes it an issue not worth worrying about for many.

You're dealing with bots and nitty regs, the rake is eating everyone alive and there are no rewards. It's depressing to hear it's happening on micro stakes on ignition. What's even worse is that as far as cash games are concerned, it only gets worse the higher you play and there are no new game formats to move to.

The rake burden is actually lower in terms of bb/100 as you move up.

If you guys are going to post stuff like this at least know what you are talking about

You are correct for the most part. Since Ignition was kind enough to institute a new rake where $50nl caps at $4, $50nl is a bigger bb/100 than $25nl by 17% in my db.

Hey, I just complained that one night was an outlier as far as the softness of the games goes. Upswinging is known for complaining about the games being unbeatable now. I, myself, am not on that tip. They are what they are and I've chosen to be a poker player so I'll deal with what I have to. I was just posting because the other night was just so drastically different from what I usually see here that I thought I'd mention it.

Over only about 5k hands this month (I play on other networks, too) I went from 20bb/100 to 7bb/100 and lost 3 stacks in one night. A totally standard cool down night after numerous consecutive winning sessions but i can't remember the last time I lost 3 stacks in a day here.

I know a lot of other players from the Northeast play here and on WPN: How widespread was that power outage last night? I just got mine back an hour ago and am getting myself together again. I was out from 4pm to 4am and live in the northernmost suburbs of NYC. This was the longest outage from non winter related severe weather in over 20 years.

5k is a tiny sample and certainly not enough to draw any conclusions or account for normal variance.

Has anyone gotten to play for a large "jackpot" in the 3 max sit n gos?

If so, how much, what stakes, and do they only pay the winner in the larger payouts?

I have played about 100 $30s this week and the largest "jackpot" has been a 5x aka $150, which showed up 8 times, and is winner-take-all in those.

I play fast (zone) games much tighter.

Edit- what shows up on the edit screen and what shows up here look different. Sorry for the scramble.

Would be interested to hear if anyone has gotten the chance for bigger than 5x the buy in. That’s been the max “jackpot” for me too, and they occur so infrequently that I’ve essentially quit playing them after playing about 500x $30s and 250x $60s
