Default Re: why even charge rake if you are going to give it back?

So, if the WSEX of old was a "Drunken Casino Donk Fest,"
then what does a
"Drunken Casino Donk Fest" + 100% Rake-back + a 20% Deposit bonus equal?

Maybe: every sane poker player in the Online poker playing Universe is going
to start playing/3-tabling there?

Note/Edit: I get off work in a half-hour and as soon as I get home I am
depositing and going to check this place out. Even if it's a rock fest, I am still going to play there, as 100% RB + Dep. bonus is HUGE.
See you guys there later.
What should I make my screen name there? "MrDonk" or "TheDonator" or something like that? How about "SportsBettor"?

Obviously you have never played the site if you think its filled with Rocks.

This is the kind of disinformation I'm talking about. Posters make claims to the site without ever playing it. They just don't want for some reason to think a site with no rake is viable. So the smear campaign begins on day 1.

I think he was agreeing with you dude.


Perhaps his post should have begun with an "I hear ya...and furthermore would like to add that...."

I've put in 1,500+ hands in the past 2 days, it's not a rock fest at all.

FWIW, the site is clearly not filled with rocks. I am still playing and am determined to prove myself crazy for thinking there is even a single bot playing with me. I am still seeing some strange [censored] happen over and over (players capping preflop, then check-folding on a non-scary board, etc), but am hoping it just has something to do with the fact that there is probably a lot of crossover traffic from the sportsbook/casino, making for different games than I'm used to.

I kind of know Syn-Exp via PM and am familiar with some of opinions and it would really surprise me if he was attacking you in the way you were thinking.


I think he was just addressing the 'thread in general'.

Has anyone run the numbers on what kind of bonus this would equate to (in relation to the easy Party Poker bonii)? What would the value of "X" be?

That's one thing I don't care for here. You always HAVE to reply to somebody.

Often I just want to add my 2 cents to the thread in general so I just randomly click reply to any of the posts. It doesn't always mean I am replying directly to that post.
