Also , CyprusPokerClub has MASSIVE collusion omg it’s disgusting. What I don’t understand is they all copy and paste whatever message you type in chat, and spam it. But yeh I saw 2 players colluding like mad last night. Irritates the **** out of me.
Club owners make more bringing losing traffic then they do bringing winning traffic.

If you click what someone says in the chat it will auto copy it and paste it to the chat box, you just gotta click send.

Coincidence? Or does shelling out real $ give some extra boost.

No joke he’s down probably 30-40k lifetime if not more.
Makes this purchase... god mode.
Well if what you are saying is true, spending 400 seems like a sound investment. Just go grind highstakes after buying that card.

It makes a lot of sense. Looking at $ per player being paid back is extremely simplistic. Greater market share = greater profit = greater motivation to not scam. PPP is not a cut and dry thing where there is only one room like stars. If an agent scams on one room, he is risking his entire business. Just because he may have to pay back a higher $ value compared to the other agent, a lot more comes into this decision.

Under the method being proposed in this thread, one should just offer 0 rakeback. Good luck having a sustainable business then. The real reason that most agents offer poor rakeback deals is that there are multiple middle men, and they all need their cut.

Agreed that $ per player alone is too simplistic.

Yeah, of course the other extreme is silly too. I'd think a happy medium makes the most sense.

My point was this - simply saying that more rakeback means less risk is silly. When sites/rooms/agents are competing simply on who gives the most rakeback, margins get thin, and that increases everyone's jeopardy.

Rakeback %, on any site, should just be one of many factors when deciding where to play.

Pretty sick, some apps are spreading 50/100 and 100/200 plo/nl these days. Rake is high but games are very good and there is chance for rb

well, according to some in this thread the less rb being paid out the more you can trust an agent/club.

Seems a bit self-serving no?

50/100 100/200 usd games? I'm not at that level to trust anyone with that stakes in pppoker yet. Highest I've played was 10/20 usd I would assume 100/200 would be more of a private club type of setting

There are semi private 50/100 100/200 USD games. You won't hear about many as most of the time they have only couple of spots for Pros.
There is one that recently kinda opened to public and thats I assume what people are reffering too but yes it is in fact USD.

It makes sense these Pros use to play always the same players in live setting they can just gather together playing the same setup on their own terms avoiding bots and shaddy users.

I've just discovered that color-coding opponents is limited to 1000x on UPoker - does PPP have the same restriction? Very annoying as now I feel like I'm flying blind again, constantly having to click on opponents to check their stats.

You can play four tables at once (using an emulator) on UPoker using just ONE account. Best on a desktop of course. Not sure why PPPoker doesn't have the same facility - inferior programmers perhaps?

If emulators lag you either have terrible settings or terrible computer. Almost any computer of up to 4 years age should be able to run 3-4 emus w/o issues. Adding more than 4 will require power

I’m saying you can play 4 tables on pppoker without an emulator now.
Looks like they upped it from 3 to 4.
