You don't want to play on 888, the rake there is absurd.

As for my game FLO8, I played on Pokerdom (independent; #20 on Pokerscout, but seems to develop well), they at least have the rake equation right, so it will make sense playing when the traffic goes up. Tried to open tables, had to wait for quite a while for opponents, but every time was able to find somebody curious.

They clearly have more action in PLO8, which I don't play.

Not open to the US players, but the rest of the world may give the room a try.

bizfishpro, is Winning available for non-Americans?

Yes

Any more details about Pokerdom please? I basically just attending a live poker festival that was sponsored by them, and I had never heard of them before that, and this is the first I've heard of someone playing on there.

I am not even sure if it is Russian or Ukrainian site. The software is made by a Russian company (from Tomsk, Siberia) and is not terrible, athough seems very very basic. Their promotion is mostly aimed at Russian-speaking people. They got well known Russian-speaking professionals to their roster - http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=81034, http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=186453, http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=225312, all of them I know very well in person. Can only wish good luck to a site that still has faith in promoting poker as a skill game.

I made a small deposit and more than doubled it playing PLO at anonymous tables. Didn't cash out yet but know people who did successfully. Long term reliability - well, you never know it with poker these days, but I see no reason to trust it less than any decent Euro site or Stars fwiw.

Also, they don't support tracking software there, on purpose, but I heard pros manage to fix it somehow. I personally didn't care as I don't play more than three or four tables.

It is definitely not a prime choice for a grinder, but seems useful enough to add a couple of tables. Hopefully their traffic goes up. Poker is still growing in Russia, even in 2016.

Hello, I am looking to play Omaha high/low online. Looking for low stakes- $1/$2 blinds.

What sites would you recommend?

Thank you.

If you're from Brazil or Russia, I'd highly recommend Stars.

What if you are from Sweden or UK? Do you recommend some other site

I am in the States playing on Bovada this month. These guys are playing some juuunnnkkky hands.

Their pot limit hypers are nice. The PL component requires just enough extra thinking for one to gain a nice edge.

They gotta be soft to make up for the high rake and lack of rewards. Merge is lower rake, and WPN is lowest by far if you factor in rb and other rewards. Better rewards than pstars even, but traffic isn't very high except for peak hours mostly.

Yeah, just playing through the deposit bonus for now. After that we'll see.

Since I can only play 4 tables at once, it's a great excuse to get really high on legal Washington State weed while I play.

That's funny - I ask myself (and sometimes villain) at least once a night on Bovada "is he high??", and now I know the answer might be yes more than I thought.


Lotus, by WPN do you mean America's Cardroom, or are you playing somewhere else?

Yep, WPN is the network and ACR is one of its skins. A little before 2016 started, I did some quick math on the rake/rewards (with the exception of deposit bonuses) and from best to worst it's WPN>Merge>Bovada. So I just try to open games up from that order pretty much.

I've been playing on Bovada for the past 8 months+ due to the fact it seems to be the only place that has regular 08 traffic for US players. Certainly for 5-10, 10-20 and 30-60.

For the past week I played a bit on ACR. The client is much better, no anon tables, and there is rakeback. Games don't go that often. 5-10 was the highest that got going. Although there was one player that was sitting by himself at all the tables.

I was wondering if people had thoughts as to why this isn't the place of choice for all the displaced ftp and pokerstars players.

Is there another site I should be looking at?

trying to find current information on sites that cater to americans? I have looked around and it appears Omaha/8 online is virtually dead.Nothing significant on bovada
or betonline that I can see. Is online Omaha/8 dead for usa? tia.

Alive and well on WPN ( Americas cardroom). Also Bet Online has action, and Juicy Stakes/Intertops sometimes as well.

what stakes on WPN are active?

All stakes, generally, from .01/.02 to 1/2 you can usually find multipe games going. Limit from 2/4 to 5/10 has been running daily. Big bet 2/4 to 3/6 often runs, there were multiple games going yesterday. If you want to play higher, you can always sit, there's almost always a table open up to 10/20, even 25/50.

I know this is an Omaha Forum but what Stud8 traffic is there typically?

There is a stud forum...

Edit - which you found, but thought here would be a better place to ask, sigh

Really? Gtfo

Pretty clear that many players play both or would have at least noticed. Not worth a new thread, bro

sigh

I'd be happy to answer here. Stud 8 frequently goes from 1-2 to 5-10. I'm not sure all day, but in the early morning hours EST, there often is 1 or more going.
Micro stakes games run as well.

Thanks space!

1. Bovada/Ignition 2. WPN network 3. Merge network

What stakes are fixed limit Omaha H/L 8 running regularly on Ignition? I haven't been able to find any games in progress at all since they changed format and don't show what games are running.

And you probably won't. they ruined their cash games with the auto seater bs. Still some plo8 up through 1/2 on Bovada, esp. at peak hours.
