[GGPoker]: Natural8, etc - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Found this site through an affiliate and it looks to cater to Asian players(fish)......anyone have experience with withdrawals? I'm sure the games are super soft but I don't want to get freerolled.

If you are US-based [as one of your previous posts suggests] then the Natural8 T&Cs will interest you:

The GGNETWORK claim to be the "world's leading online poker network" according to their site homepage, but how they measure that is anyone's guess. The homepage is impressive at first glance, but upon inspection it's all rather shallow - what do all those words & graphics add up to? Not much. Here is a list of their 27 licensees [skins] which includes Natural8: http://www.ggnet.com/clients

Perhaps some skins accept US players

Rake is effectively uncapped.

Played on GGNET in 2014ish, sudden rush from all affiliates at that time to withdraw your roles. Also GGNET bans players from there network quite frequently.

I played there in 2014, it was the reason i quit poker for a long time.

It's filled with cheating house bots that seem to be fishes but the fishy action is mostly for show from the weaker looking bots with the better playing bots.

Heard from a friend of mine that a lot of people were denied withdrawals on a large skin and 2 weeks ago my affiliate told me that they will not carry the GG brand for that same reason.

Are they 5bb deep? If so, 5% rake should be unbeatable even if the opponents are absolutely terrible.
IIRC, FTP abandoned its 'Adrenalin Rush' push-fold game because no one was winning even with 3.5% rake or something like that.

8bb deep

Its a strange concept even when you get really deep you can't make a normal open its literally all in or fold only 2 options. However at any time you can go south and go back down to 8 bigs.

Current rake structure should be this:

Played 2 days there and cashed out again without any problems (NETELLER). Money was back in my account within ~12 hours.

Anyway, you don't need a mail address or any other personal information and support told me players don't have to verify their accounts.

Hadn't had a good feeling, even though everything went well so far.

What's the scoop on this Chinese site? A friend was just set up and he says it's super soft. I'm hesitant as I can't find much online other than the strictly Chinese site.

Is the rake uncapped or super high like natural8? Anyone have reviews?

Thanks.

Looks like another skin on the same network as Natural8 (GGNetwork), so it's gonna be the same player pool, games, rake, etc.

How many poker players are online on average (cash game tables)?

Is this trusted?

Available in UK?

Rake structure?

Rakeback affiliates available?

I've been told that

Quote:

It’s a recreational site so they don't want big winning players – so play wisely! Big winning players will be asked to leave with all their winnings and bank roll.

Who exactly is regarded as a 'big winning player' by Natural8? Does someone who is playing on another network at the same time, or is using a hotkey script or a HH converter (if there are any), or just multitabling, draw their suspicion? Or do they ban bumhunters only but allow table and SNG starters to play? Has any of the readers of the thread been banned from Natural8 and if so, with what explanation?
