Hi Phil,
now i've had some more time to play, i'd like to give you my thoughts and feedback.
Firstly great job, the client is honestly great. Feels like old school full tilt, looks nice etc.
I've been playing PLO10, having loads of fun with the splash pots and grinding out that depost bonus (admittedly only £20, but no problem!, its great!)
It would be nice if your card details etc were saved, so you only had to enter your security code when you deposited. At present you have to re enter all your details.
Secondly, my surname is double barrelled, it doesn't let me enter a - character on sign up or in my bank details!
I'm sure you've had this already, but the replayer needs to be image based, the text is too difficult to see.
Finally, the limits are rather sparse. 10PLO > 50 PLO is a huge jump, as is 4NL to 20NL. Although obivously it's just BETA thought i'd point it out.
THank you for doing a great job for the poker community Phil, it's super appreciated and once tournaments are available here, I can't imagine playing anywhere else!

Really glad you're enjoying the splashed pots and working on that deposit bonus. GL!

Honest feedback, made a deposit today...
As a recreational player I am not really enjoying the splashed pot so far. (Maybe because in the few hours Ive played ive gotten hands not worth getting involved) but I do feel like the dynamic changes A LOT, and it turns into degen pre flop flipping which kind of feels like a pokerstars move.
Best of luck!

Thank you for the GL wishes!

Feel like a minor shill with few posts and some already saying positive things about the site but obv not.
I've probably played some of the most hands out of people so far since launch on NL and PLO - overall I am very pleased with the site.
Random thoughts so far:
I think it's really key to keep things simple and at the moment things are simple. Please consider when regs and winning players are asking for in depth implementations that ultimately allow them to make easy money by having the software do everything for them, it hugely decreases the enjoyment for recreational players like myself.
Examples, such as allowing bet sizes of 33.55% or 78.21% like on Stars. This is not good for recreational players. They don't want to play against people who have hotkeys and preset buttons for every situation. They want everyone to be able to have to think and bet a small range of simple amounts like 25%, 50% and 75%.
One minute you can have a fun website and a level playing field and the next minute you have enabled the regs and winners to sit back and continue to multi table in a brain dead fashion. If someone wants to bet 61.67% then make them type it in manually. This might sound crazy but I truly believe small factors like this are a slippery slope and really important.
Look at the chinese apps like Pokermaster, which I have also played on quite a lot. This site is very simple - and it works. There are lots of fish and a good ratio of recs to regs and there is no platform upon which the players have access to suggest improvements to the owner. If you can imagine if all of a sudden on Pokermaster you could do everything you could on Pokerstars overnight, such as mass tabling, hotkeys, HUDs, seat selection, zoom poker, bumhunting, screen names, tracking sites, millions of different games and stakes options which ultimately make the lobby look empty and dead (action creates action, not hundreds of players sat alone waiting for fish), a boring rakeback system that only benefits pros and grinders (I absolutely love splash the pot, well done!), ability to buy in with any random amounts (if it's 100bb it's 100bb and it's tough **** if you don't like it you get used to it or don't play if you're that bothered), long time banks.... then overnight Pokermaster would be dead. The reason is such a popular lesser known site is because of it's individuality and querks that make is stand out from Pokerstars.
I am not going to write anymore right now because already getting long, however, to summarise, I think it's worth seriously considering adding in too many options as it will make the games too easy for regs and less fun for recs.
If you want millions of eastern european and russian reg bots to join and play and destroy the site then all you need to do is follow suit to some of Pokerstars methods listed above and listen to the ideas of people who only want things implemented that will benefit themselves to make more money. Limiting options will always keep the playing field more even and more fun.
Only issues so far are things that are already minor bugs listed, everything else is great so far and of course while I say too much is bad, there is obviously room for a hell of a lot more all I am saying is please be careful.
Rambles over, really hope the sites a success and wish you all the best with it.

I am switching 100% of my action to rio. Playing mostly 50/100 NL
I like everything so far, but the issue with how things work if I disconnect.
The minor issues and bugs will be fixed as soon as possible, I am sure.
Job well done Phil! Thank you for providing an alternative! A real one!

Did get withdraw in few hours, very solid.
Also props for no restrictions for withdraws and it not effecting first deposit bonus at all.
What is purpose of allowing letters in deposit amount window? Other then allowing deposit infinity? (Happens when entering 3333E3333 (When E between numbers) in deposit window) - also 2e2 = 200, 1e3 = 1000 and strange things happening with latter e in theses windows.

I was playing yesterday and today. While playing just one table everything was fine, but problems occurred when 2-tabling. Yesterday while being in a hand the whole flop did not appear, I could just see the turn and river cards.
Today it looked liked that and the first card wasn't visible:
This should not be happening

Hey Phil Galfond!
I played pro poker for 9 years before moving on to crypto in 2017. I was even a coach on Blue Fire Poker for a while
I downloaded the site and gave it a try simply because of the amount of respect I have for you. You earned it over the years of being a top quality poker representative.
So at this point, Im a rec player and I LOVE everything you have done with the site.
- splash pots for rakeback - genius
- no players stats, anonymous tables, player emotion graphics - love it. I dont feel like I can be bum hunted and that feels great.
One question, if I play bad and someone takes notes on me, I leave the game and return later, will the notes still be there? How long do I have to wait till the notes refresh/reset?
- automatic seating, automatic 100bb buy in - love it.
All in all, a great experience. I use to play on the chinese apps a bit recently but I am moving all my rec action to RIOP. It just feels much better and knowing my rake is going to an owner that I respect is a bonus.
Are there plans for a mobile app? Is it currently available on both PC and MAC?
WHat about collusion? I like to play PLO and sometimes the player pool only has 4-5 players. Are there anything done to prevent players from colluding in that scenario?
Thanks for the great work you've put into this site. So far, its a great experience (except when the tables crashed yesterday, that cut my session short)
I even reset 2p2 account just to be able to give my feedback here.
