[Intertops Poker] Ex-Official Support & Promotions Thread - Page 195 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

There doesn't seem to be much of a difference without Fair Play. There are no games $2/4+ on Intertops today and almost every day since I got back from Vegas. There's a couple $2/4 and one $10/20 running on Lock. Is volume at an all-time low?

yea.

There's 16 cash games running at 1/2+ on Lock

3 on Intertops.

ugh

Intertops has considerably more European traffic than Lock. You guys that can "never find any games" might want to look during Euro hours or start games yourselves....

~6 pm to 2 am EST seems to be the best hours for 200nl-600nl from what I've seen the past few weeks playing pretty regularly. Without doing any math I'd estimate there are on average 8-9 tables at these combined stakes going at any point in this time period. There is definitely a considerable difference from when Fair Play was in effect.

No, I do not mean two when I say multiple. See below.

Bingo

As I said, a few posts back. You guys are looking at the wrong times. Peak traffic time(s) on Intertops are not necessarily peak times on Lock because they market to vastly different audiences.

Fair play is no longer in effect. However, the (100nl?)+ segregation is still in effect.

According to blobbs research Intertops is segregated from lock at nl50+. I think lock shares some tables with juicy stakes at nl50 though (5 tables IIRC)

In regards to winning tournaments on Intertops vs lock and how absurd the disparity in payouts would potentially be.

Isn't this extremely unhealthy for the players? Id feel lick a schmuck if I won a big tournament on lock while having had the chance to play the same tourn on Intertops.

However, Intertops is still awesome in other aspects. I still play there and think its way better than ACR and that network.

What is the issue with ACR/WPN? Why do you still prefer Tops over that network? Is Intertops more Shortstacker friendly?

Im asking because I was considering trying to grind on WPN.

If you have the option to play on Intertops opposed to Lock, and you choose to play on lock.... you might be a shmuck.

Perhaps but..

A lot of people have money LOCKed up. Also, if you have an intertops balance that is too low to grind with, or play effectively with, you can trade it for lock and have enough to deal with variance.

That of course, is just my professional opinion.

Dear xxxxxxx,

I am really sorry but due to maintenance and tracking issues your poker account will be closed from 11am today, that is in one hour (Sunday July 21), until to Monday morning 11am CET (Monday July 22). Not all Intertops accounts will be affected but unfortunately yours will be.

Sorry for any inconvenience this might cause and we will do everything in our power to get your account up and running as soon as possible!

Really???

Same message for me. This is ridiculous. No warning or anything. Now I am just starting to think revolurion doesn't want certain winning players on Intertops to have access to sunday tournaments.

Uhhh guess it's time to switch to bovada full time? This sucks... May sound stupid, but what happens when they start randomly locking accounts permanently. There's been no real explanation either, just oops gl?

why they would pick their biggest volume day to do this bull**** is beyond me especially after some players got screwed over last Sunday.....not a good look for a site that has very little to offer these days in terms of game selection.
