Is run it twice raked differently?

It allows the people running the club to grow their club. Say the person running the club has a reach that goes to 25-30 players. Then say every agent reaches 25-30 players. 5 agents can help a club grow from 30 to 150 players in the playing pool. As clubs join together, you now have 8 clubs playing together. Instead of one club of 30, you're now grouped together with 1200 players. It's just about reaching more and more people to grow the player base for any given club.

I get your point, but do you want to play with 30 players or 1200 players? The club "owner" just isn't going to reach as many people.

No same rake as running it once, or three times.

what do you think rakeback websites are/were? middlemen who attracted players to a site and got a % of their rake for it. agents for poker sites just the next step, handing money themselves.

So can I create multiple accounts and multi table on PC or not? (NO cheating obv. 4 separate tables)
There are conflicting reports in this thread an no definitive answer. Some people say they are doing it. Another guy said his account got banned for this and he can't log in to pppoker at all anymore. So what's up? Is anybody multi-tabling on pc with 2+ accounts no problem? Or is it standard to use multiple devices? I don't want to risk banning my account but one tabling also makes me want to bash my skull in. Please help. Thanks.

Yes, you can play on three different accounts at the same time. I have been doing so for years across a number of different clubs with no problems.

has anyone had success downloading PPPOKER onto a macbook computer?

Is there a guide somewhere to do this? or is it simply not possible?

Thanks bro, I appreciate the response

One last question for you. Do you use three different agents or just have three accounts with the same agent? Also is it 3 the max or is it 4 max?

i got like 4 diff agents that i use. whoever trustworthy and gives good deals i use them

Only just heard about PPP - do you need to find an 'agent' to play? And why only one table at a time - are they likely to enable multi-tabling in the future?

Are some clubs a lot softer than others?
How do you recognise them? does it depend countrywise the club is created?

Most of the time if u want a rb deal ull need an agent, if u dont care about rb can msg club owners and they will out u on the club w/out a deal.

I duno about the 1 table thing coz i use converter/emus

Which emulator do you use?

Agents might be able to look after you better than the club owners in some cases. Just need to find reputable ones.

You can multi-table with different accounts on PC.

US unions on PPPoker are extremely soft relative to most online platforms. Region and country does matter as you'd expect also. Some Unions even go out of their way to be recreational player orientated.

You definitely can create multiple accounts and multi-table, some clubs might have different rules in place regarding it though. It's very standard practice however.

Just to add to this. The rake is calculated only on the first run. It's relative for rakeback purposes etc. So always aim to win the first run

Which cases are those? Agents have to go through owners for everything...deposits, withdraws, rakeback, so if an owner turns out to be shady there's nothing an agent can do to protect you. And of course going through an agent, now you have to worry about two people rolling you, shorting you rakeback, not answering calls, things like that. In addition to that, agents can have their whole downline kicked out of a club (typically happens if they win too much), or they could switch clubs themselves because they get a better deal from a different owner, so you can easily wake up one day and be in a completely different club with completely different games and players, or be in no club at all.

That said, you should obviously go through an agent if you're trying to get into a ppp club. Most owners don't accept people they don't personally know and you get way better rb deals when you go through an agent.

What’s everyone’s RB deal right now?

I’ve heard some get as high as 70-80 which is wild

Others 10-30

30 - 50

lol what clubs were giving out 80%?

Just want to say if you are part of the $hooting range club, you suck.

Nothing but nuts and collusion city. Seriously. Entire club vpip must be 25% average.

thats weird im up like 13k on that club with nothing higher than $100 buy in games, and a significant portion of my play at PLO $60 and PLO $40. it is definitely one of the toughest clubs I've played in on pppoker tho.

So you won about 250 buy in in one of the toughest clubs.
Must be decent bb/100

(forgive me as English is not my native language)

My friend had a meeting with PPPoker a while ago, and met their Sales Manager and boss. They headquartered in Guangzhou. All of them are Chinese.

Business Model: 1 Sales Manager represents for the business of at least 1 country. They claim to be doing everything absolutely legal. They approach real poker clubs in real world (i.e casino) to run the Mobile clubs for them. Sales Manager gets 15% as their main income.

But here is the risk. In China, everything about gambling is illegal. Macao and Hong Kong are the only Special Administrative Region (due to World War 2 history) that allows casinos and horse racing. For every Chinese, unless you hold Hong Kong/ Macau passports, working in gamble business is illegal.

Therefore, PPPoker set geography restriction that nobody can use in China. However, the boss and their employees are all Chinese that working in illegal gambling business model to make money. So one day, this PPPoker company may run into troubles, if they do not have "good relationship" with the government.

So play at your own risk.

I was a big advocate and reason toronto clubs, on the Cadillac club union, was busted for multiaccounting and cheating all over the place. These guys were even sitting 2/3 seats in 20 pt ofc games versus me (once by what I found out what the owner of the club sn “I <3 taylorswift and Ken Griffey”.

They are now on NYC under this club name “shooting range” and yes deffinately could not be trusted. I would never sit a table with anyone from the shooting range, let alone two from same club, especially how scummy their past is....

"Look after you better" as in better customer service, more information, rake reports, different deposit methods even better rakeback deals if they are big agents. But yes I agree with everything else you're saying. I'd only use very established agents with long track records or simply just go through the club directly as I said.

Yeah high stakes games always have way more risk on any poker platform for collusion. I'd definitely be requesting Heads up tables at those stakes.
