It wasn't directed at anyone, and if you're ridiculous enough to believe that the word Clutch was being used in the 90's, you shouldn't be on here posting, period. I appreciate the candor, but you're already making me feel like the adage that 2+2 is full of more BS argumentative responses than help is an accurate assessment.


Thank you,


Clutch



PS -- I realize that you don't care how I feel.
Lol I remember everyone saying how clutch Jordan is or Stockton is or Reggie Miller is while watching NBA back in the early 90's....if not earlier.

carbons pay out thread was kinda scary. players were requesting payments in march and not receiving the checks until this month. this wouldnt necessarily be an issue in the beginning, but the thought of a 3 month wait..
I also play on ACR and support and payouts are great. If you're into MTT action, it blows. Ring games are beatable, but it's so fishy that its almost UNbeatable. (If that makes sense)

not that into mtt's bc of the massive time commitment, but ill play them occasionally. like weekends would be fine, but its not a deal-breaker for me.

thanks, again.

for FLHE, the answer is nowhere. bovada is bot and collusion filled, and merge dried up.

At the current moment Bovada is the best. Hopefully Merge will regain steam with the SNG promo they have in the works.

Yeah, but there are other money makers and you have to find those on your own. #secret

the $3 dollar triple ups are filled with nits. I found a profit in the 5 and 10 turbo and superturbo and occasionally mix it up with some hypers.

Bovoda seems to have good action but 4 tables max is weak. Merge has a super sexy sng leader board and its the best fo sho

Bovada you get hit and ran all day and BCP has very little HU cash that even runs. There really isn't a site that is worthwhile for HU cash right now. What stakes are you playing? That has a little bit to do with the action.

Sorry for this basic question, but I was wondering - do all sites that share a major network (e.g. Merge, Cake) also share the same exact player pool?

Or does the player pool vary by poker site?

Especially for the two examples you picked it is not the case, as Merge has some skins with their own tables and Cake / Revolution have fair crap technology (on top of that Lock has their own separate tables as well).

Thanks for the reply.

Does anyone know what the most active (or "flagship" if any) sites for each of the big networks are - Merge, Cake, and any other big networks with US players that I'm missing?

Merge: Carbon Poker
Revolution (Cake owned): Lock Poker
Winning Poker: America's Cardroom or Black Chip Poker
Bovada (Bodog network?)

That's pretty much the major jist for US-facing networks.

Is a hit and runner's money no good?

All money is good, but playing HU you typically avoid playing someone if they are just going to win half a buy in from you and leave the game. It's worse on Bovada than any other site since it's all anonymous.

When they first switched they were great for playing HU cash. Unfortunately, you'll never see the $ again so it's kind of pointless.

Is ACR any good for SnGs or MTTs, and does it have rakeback of any sort?

There is a few tournaments worth playing, but overall it's pretty bad for both at the moment. Hopefully it improves in the near future. Merge has the best tournament schedule and guarantee's right now.

I haven't seen much about Betonline. Any reason why ?? They've got some good reviews so I threw the minimum deposit in. Anyone have experience with them ??
