Re: so let me get this new WPEX thing straight
I have already stated that I multi table, but I have also stated that I don't care about playing on WPEX.
My statement has nothing to do with what I want to do, rather with the marketing approach WPEX is taking.
So you guys want a fun, rake free site that the fish will flock to. Great, who doesn't. But WPEX is using a marketing approach that best fits the exact player you don't want on the site.
WPEX claims to have given back over 10 million in rake or whatever it was.
Instead of giving it back in some dry, accountant, grind it out fashion that fish really could care less about, why not give it back in a way that appeals to the fish?
Regular jackpot bonuses for no good reason or money in their account via email after they have quit playing for a while, so they can come play some more would be much more appealing to the gambling fish.
Try to pull off the narrow assuming blinders and actually think about it...
WPEX could also throw in some decent random bonuses.
If some fish hits a $500 bonus out of the blue, every one of his buddies at the bar or home game are going to hear about it.
And the next time they hit, they'll hear about it again. Now multiply this thousands of times around the country.
That will get a hell of a lot more fish into WPEX than some grind it out accountant format.
Once the fish tells his buddy about the rake free site the first time, what else is there to tell? Big friggin deal.
But keep hitting bonuses and give them something fun to anticipate but not know when is a hell of a lot more fun than going to your account and watching your little ticker slowly creep up.
That is appealing to the nit grinders, NOT the fish.
