The 4 table cap wouldn't bother me much if they could also figure out how to keep certain individuals from getting seated and immediately sitting out for orbits on end on over half the tables running on a given limit.

Can't Can't Can't

Sorry, missing that one letter completely changes the statement!

Sngs are crazy there man... I can't believe how soft they are. I only play the $5s though.... thinking about moving up to the $11s, but atm I am too nitty with my BR. I imagine the $11s are just as soft.

Table restrictions are too much. I'm bout to move to New Jersey and crush Party Poker Jerry Springer style, who wants a roommate

Can someone please explain to me how long you can sit out of a cash table before being removed due to inactivity? I swear i've seen a guy linger for 20 minutes sitting out talking sh*t. I get up to take a wizz and I come back to find myself removed from the table.

well, in an $11 Super turbo i just had a guy call 14bbs pre with 79 suited 4 handed. he folled that up by calling 8bb with 48 off. be careful out there now

I think the table has to be full AND possibly at least one player on the wait list although I'm just guessing about that one.

TY to Chicagory for helping me clear up the 4 table restriction, got it taken care of very quickly!

anyone else looking forward to the OPS?

can people do transfers on carbon?

no

Oh god Yes, Hell yeah, and YYYYYYes! I love this series. I plan most of my week around the events. The prizepools are amazing. It's such a nice breath of fresh air from the rest of the year, as far as online poker in America goes. The old Poker Maximus series renamed. Can't wait.

As a community service and for my own use I would like to ask: What are the top 5 Merge skins?

I'm asking you to consider these 6 factors (in no particular order) when submitting your list:

1. VIP program
2. rakeback (even through a VIP-to-cash exchange)
3. customer service
4. actually getting paid in a timely manner
5. availability of all cash games and SNG's/MTT's
6. Other factors important to you

From what I can see Carbon is #1, Aced is #2 (no sportsbook)? I used to play on PlayAces by Sportsbook but haven't touched them since they overhauled their VIP program. Some skins I see look very amateurish. I hear things about Players Only too but I can't see a VIP program there. Since I tend to pop in and out of the forums every 3 months I need a crash course, but I'm sure several others would find some responses helpful. Thanks.

There are only 2 types of options now. Poker Rooms who offer sportsbooks/casinos, and sportsbooks/casinos that offer poker. Broken down further that's Carbon/Aced or Jazette owned companies. As such:

1) Poker oriented rooms have better VIP options, and take them away less than sb/casino oriented rooms

2) No rakeback is allowed at all, only the aforementioned VIP and again, there are only two choices; those offered by C/A, and those offered by the Jazette skins.

3) Same Tier1 customer service department at all remaining skins

4) Same cashier at all remaining skins

5) Same player pool a all remaining skins, with the exception that SB/Casino skins do not offer draw/stud games at all.

I was told you are allowed once account on any given skin

I couldn't find Chicagory post. How did you take care of the 4 table restriction???

You can. What he means is that just because you are SuperStarPokerPlayer69 on one skin and BrokeBackFish82 on another, you are still Bob Smith in real life and that name and other id info is on both accounts. So they would quickly restrict both accounts to 4 tables.

This is the correct interpretation

just curious... how exactly do they determine what the max tables for a player is? I was told 10 tables were the max, and I was playing more than that yesterday. Is the max number of tables a function of:
1 win rate (or dollar wins)
2 delay between moves (excessive time banking)
3 bumhunting
4 excessive sitting out
5 other?

This site seems very vague when it comes to a lot of things. I still don't understand why the VIP Elite is by "invitation only". I've never seen that before. If you win too much are they not going to offer it? Anyone have any idea what the criteria is?

Just from reading posts, it seems that one of the criteria is that a player needs to have redeposited.

They are not giving specifics on table restrictions.

dammit, i got raked like 1k. Was there anything worth a g-bar in rake?

Why were you restricted?

Couldn't you just run both skins on two different logins and play 8 tables at least if youre restricted?
