I wouldn't be trusting PPP atmo for anyone looking for apps to play, go for Pokerbros.
PPPFish / Flying Fish are very shady clubs. Non existant customer service, they hire 3rd world VAs who literally have no idea what's going on - and their owners act like Google / Facebook CEOs who can't be contacted for any serious issues.
Very suspiscious of the cash games within this club, something super shady going on. I expect it's heavy bot rings cleaning the fish for $$$ as there are a lot of bad players, rife collusion is a given when you can play on both your phone and PC at the same time on the same table with no issues.
How is one of the smallest unions, on the PPPoker app getting daily prizepools larger than Pokerstars did in 2010?
When the entire world was allowed to play online poker, the world's biggest poker website (Pokerstars) was not achieving the prizepools that a SMALL union within a poker app (which surely has a fraction of the playerbase Pokerstars had, before Black Friday) is currently achieving. Yes, COVID-19 has caused a recent surge in the popularity of online poker, but this does not account for the numbers some of these tournaments are getting.
How can this same club, who's achieving 100k guarantees daily with their MTTs, only have 20-30 active players on their cash tables at any one time? There's a maximum of 3-4 active tables for each limit, which often aren't full - yet 500+ people are playing MTTs everyday...To put this into context, MTTs are equalling Pokerstars' player base, yet their cash games are not even 1/100th of the size. How does that make sense?
When it's as easy as using a VPN on your computer and simultaneously playing on your phone at the same table, should you not start questioning the legitimacy of the cash games on this app? When the same players are sitting next to each other, for 20 hour sessions everyday, can we not clearly affirm that there's a high % of bots controlling these cash games?
I'm not going to go off on a tangent, but simply posting this thread to pose the question and to see if others are experiencing the same thing on this app.
Is there anyone that can show a winning graph strictly from cash games (higher than micros)? I'm up over 5 figures on MTTs but can't seem to book consistent wins on cash, to the point where I refuse to play as it seems very suspect. As I moved up in stakes - the plays would become increasingly more shady, for example: often 3 handed one player would be sitting out (forfeighting $4 big blind) to induce action, whilst the 2nd player can do no wrong - flatting 75o to a 4 bet and calling 3 barrels, flatting AK, KK, AA pre 100% of the time, almost NEVER calling all-in pre flop.
It is my strong belief that there are numerous bot rings playing the smaller-mid stakes cash games and there is quite possibly superusers playing the highest stakes. It might simply be an extremely shady union / club, or it could be something prelevant throughout the entire application.
Discuss.
Tl;dr, playing on PPPoker? Avoid cash games like the plague (MTTs are fine)
