I have communicated regularly with online support, and I thanked them for having more MTT freezeouts, including one at my level. I even said that the one with 15-minute levels and 2,500 starting chips was a game-changer for me. I had been playing mostly micro SNGs, waiting anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes for them to start, because all of the micro tournaments had rebuys and add-ons.
I'm a American who is pretty gunshy about putting a lot of money on any site right now, so I decided to put $50 on the site and grind it up. I am now at $100. The tournament to which I was referring is at the $5 level, and with a $100 bankroll that's a real stretch. But I think that the 2,500 chip/15-minute level structure makes it worth the risk for me to play it.
If you're going to switch everything to rebuys, that's really a kick in the head for me. Also, have you thought about what this will do to the new players? They could conceiveably blow through a $100 or $200 bankroll in just a few days, which in my opinion destroys the bottom of your player pyramid.
Terrible, terrible decison.
If every tournament is a rebuy or reentry, there is no reason for an MTT specialist like me who takes bankroll management seriously to stay on the site.

Since it adjusts the number of payout spots to reflect the total number of entries (including re-entries), it has the effect of flattening out an already flat structure even more. Hypothetically, if say 18 people signed up for a tourney but each one re-entered several times, each one could end up "in the money". I don't know, it's kind of silly when you re-enter a couple times and the minimum cash is barely more than one entry. I agree with the earlier poster about the structure being too flat to begin with (often first only gets like 20% of the pool).
So yeah, not real happy about this change. That being said, most everything else about this site so far has been great...Good software (a couple improvements needed tho), good service, fast payouts (the debit card is amazing), and a growing player pool. Maybe make the re-entry tourneys to only be SOME of the MTT's tho???
These are questions for our tournament director.

There are many places you can get a prepaid card, we highly recommend that you verify if the card allows international online transactions prior to the purchase.

You have been unregistered from the tournament and your account has been credited with your 13,500 points.

You earn Combat Points, but not Rank Points. If you’re a Rakeback player, your rewards details for the Elites benefit program will not be visible for you in the rewards tab.

I have no clue what a Tourney Buck is, I don't have any TBs, and I have no idea what I have to do to get one. I figured out how many Combat Points I can earn by checking my cashier page before and after a tournament and doing the math, and it came out that I get a CP for every 18 cents in rake.
I'm also unclear on the rakeback vs. CP deal. After all, if we have the choice of either, why was I automatically switched from rakeback to CP?
If this was all laid out somewhere on the site where we could read it, we would know what was going on, and ACR wouldn't have to answer all these questions.
Information on our Elites benefit program can be found
here.
Tournament Bucks are a unique currency which may be used exclusively for tournaments accepting this currency as a Buy-in. You can’t redeem them for cash as they hold no cash value. You can receive a tourney buck in exchange for an additional seat to a tournament in which you are already registered unless otherwise stated by that specific tournament rule.
Please feel to send me your username so I can check on your Rakeback status.

I was also able to unlock 2 achievement awards for $10 each but I was told by support they shouldn't be available if I have rakeback.
Not sure what the deal is. Thanks
My sn is zeeep014
All taken care of, you should be able to see your Rakeback status in the Rewards tab. If you’re a Rakeback player, you will no longer be able to participate in the Elites program.

Yes the debit card is sick and is used like any other debit card only you cant use it to put money back on the site you can only take it off from atms or banks or whatever or if u want to buy **** at stores it works. Cash outs are like 2.5k per tick I forget how often u can do it but its not got that long of a cool down and get put on your card in like 24 hours. You can have up to 10k on the card at any one time.
Pokertracker works atleast from like 9 different sources. I am about to get it myself today so I cant confirm but im 99% sure. HEM2 doesnt I know that much.
As for traffic in plo all I can say is that right now there are only 2 tables of 10cent/25cent and 1 table of 5/10cent running with no tables less then that showing up.
So I would say its not that great. Games seem way more oriented to 6 max nl holdem with a few sit and goes during reasonable hours. I didnt even see a single sit and go for nl holdem from 5-20 dollar buy ins running from like 1 am to 7 am last night eastern standard time. I sat at a table for a 10 and a 15 regular heads up sng for 2 hours and no one came.
Long story short site is awesome if you want a "safer" american site with probably the best support and cash outs I have ever seen anywhere. It also has some pretty bad players atleast at 25nl 6 max. Traffic is lower though and seems oriented around nl holdem ring games.
They do however offer some nice promotions and incentives to get people to play more tournaments and they reward tourney players pretty nicely the site has grown a bit in the short 2 weeks that I have been tracking it. I think they have commercials running in some states on espn now so I only expect things to get better.
That’s correct, the bonus is easy to clear and there’s no time limit .Also, Debit Cards are highly recommended. You can then use it to make purchases at retail outlets, or withdraw cash at your leisure.
Appreciate the kind feedback and your help.

Person to Person transactions are the fastest like WU or MG, they normally take less than a week but our standard timeframe for any cashout is from 7- 14 days.
