They offer the most games compared to any site/network with games available to US players (Lock/Revolution Network has just about the same amount of players as well)?!

What the hell man? I was playing tonight, and if you get timed out once you have to wait for the BB or post again?! I timed out just for a split second and immediately sat back in. I never had this issue before, what the hell is going on here?

I'm giving this site a month, if it doesn't improve by then I'm done with this crap.

He plays 6m/FR it appears looking at his PTR. Maybe he's only playing non-JP tables? I can't find any way to filter JP tables though, so I doubt its a filter issue he's having...?

Can someone tell me how bonus cash is released? If it is based on "amount of play", or if it's based on "time". I didn't deposit a whole bunch but at the rate it's going it will be close to 4 years before I get it all.

The bonus releases $1 at a time. For each $1 you need to earn 55 Combat Points which is the equivalent of paying $10 in rake.

It fixed itself within a minute. All other internet was working fine so don't think it could have been on my end. A lot of people have been having this issue lately so it is something they should definitely check out.

I am glad to see the Online Super Series II is coming, but i would also like to see some micro stakes tourneys on ACR. A $1-$2 nightly MTT would be excellent.

Can someone explain how one deposits money to ACR?
There web page refers me to a drop down menu that would give me options based on my country, but I don't see this menu!
http://www.americascardroom.eu/suppo...or-real-money/

In addition.... it looks like withdrawal is limited to checks, pre-paid debit cards, or some vaguely defined "online transfer service account".

I dunno.....
Does any of this sound "sketchy" to people?

ACR has the best support and withdrawals in the business, BY FAR! I just wanted to thank them for all the help they gave me. I just wish they offered PLO8 tourneys.

Well, it's a little sketchy. But that's not ACR's fault. They have to jump through hoops because of the silly US laws about poker. Bottom line is that it's legal and it works.

yea I hear ya,I just meant its not sketchy like ACR will take your money and run if you use WU or MG,seems weird sending to someone in Phillipines or somewhere but that's what they have to go through like you mentioned, sucks but it all works out

They are shooting themselves in the foot, and have a lot of potential with all the other networks that have miserable withdrawal practices. Fact of life, you build poker sites from the bottom up. NOT from the top down.

You have to have small games to "feed" the bigger games. People don't step down, they step up.

Most of the incentive is to play a ton of tables I agree which sucks. You can still make a decent amount if you are good and want to play less tables (helps if you can mix 100nl-400nl). The beast specifically really sucks because it makes all the games on the site suck. The full ring games are actually usually the softest games though when they run.

Ugh, so furious right now... had 3 fr games going and a super soft 6 max, went to the bathroom, came back and had timed out... granted I was on the toilet for a while but man they don't give you much time at all

I play 200-1000nl, so far only 200 and 400 on WPN (came over with BCP). With the added rake and the overall nit fest I don't think there is a whole lot to be won from the tables alone. I guess it depends on what you consider decent at these stakes.

I wonder if anyone is beating these games at a winrate higher than 2 bb/100 which I would think is crushing considering how high the rake is.

Maybe I'm wrong?

You are def wrong as I know a couple people at least who have pretty sick winrates despite the large rake. They only play 6ish tables at a time though. But you are right that unless you are very good at 6max nlhe then it is pretty hard to have a giant winrate hence why there is so many people playing tons of tables and fighting for beast money/rakeback. It'd be great if they got rid of the beast/bbj but they aren't going to as it benefits the site to have them.
