WSEX = RAKE FREE!

[DeNutza]

When I played at WSEX a few years back, when the games
were very juicy, no way in hell were they using Bots.

And logically it is extremely unlikely a site as respected
as WSEX would jeopardize their reputation by pulling
a stunt like that.

This would be like Pinnacle or Cris (sportsbook sites)
using bots, which basically would never happen.
Too much integrety, respect, etc is required to run
a sportsbook.

Now there is no way to say that perhaps a player
was using a bot (like WinHoldem)...But hey,it
happens on party..What can you do.

We really should be supporting this site..If they
explode in popularity, all the other sites will
at least be forced to reduce their rake in the longrun.

To repeat I payed $27000 in rake the past 6 months..
No way in hell were the sites expenses for me playing
even over $1000...The profit margins are a joke.
These guys starting the sites are worth
100's of millions now.

Get off your asses, buy-in, and lets get this site
rolling.

Thinking more on how they will make there money:

No doubt they will employ such tactics as giving
freerolls tournaments, etc to player that Bet x amount
at sports or casino.

No different than a standard "sportsbook" bonus..
They usually require you to "rollover" (bet)
5x-10x the buyin amount, before you get the bonus...

So if you get a 20% bonus...Say you buy-in $1000 ($200 bonus)
You must bet 5x that before you can cash it out..

In this case, they'll award you with a freeroll worth
$200...

I dont mind. Bring it on.

My rake for Monday has been credited, so I think it did start on Monday. Probably going by EST.

This is going to be great. Better than being a prop as I can play whatever whenever.

I've never seen games so loose at my limits since I played Party three years ago.

I'm pretty happy for this opportunity finally. I really resented paying so much in rake, or having to chase crappy reloads that keep getting crappier every month.

This marketing ploy is awesome: getting people to join your site by offering 100% rakeback, and tempting them with casino and sports bets. Because I don't know about you guys, but I'm definitely gonna let all my rakeback ride on some delicious -EV sports bets. Mmmmm... sports betting....

OK, I have gotten rake from monday credited now too - seems it works albeit a bit delayed. Heavens knows why they told me it wouldn't start until today... Their support actually seem quite stupid - maybe that's the reason.

Who knows why they are doing this. I'll tell you this though. If they become wildly successful, Party will have to consider buying them out before a rake free site becomes to popular.

Why would a bot have to be a good player?
