What happened to the games at Cryptological sites?
 
They have totally dried up and every game seems to be a rock garden? What happened to the idiot donks that used to play there? Also they used to have some high stakes games and even they have dried up? [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

In other news, the US recently passed the UIEGA. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Seriously, I found the fish dried up at Crypto over a year ago when the UIEGA was passed. Mind you, I only play 1/2-3/6 FL, maybe it was different at the higher stakes. Strange thing is, there used to be some great GBP games, now there's almost never even any running. Were all the American fish playing GBP tables?

bkk, what on earth does RedStar have to do with Crypto??

Most of the ultra stupid players were Brits or Euros. I think Americans killed the site. They even used to have high stakes games that played as loose as some sites 1/2 games(back when they were loose on most sites).

Well, that was my assumption, but it seems they all left when the Americans did. I was finding great games there right up until that happened. Great bonuses & rakeback; it's a shame it's so tight there now. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Betfair leaving the network had an effect although the damage was mostly already one.

These are the main reasons, #1 being the biggest:

1. Betfair left
2. Sites have increased their monthly bonuses, this combined with MPP races and rakeback has attracted more skilled players
3. William Hill has separate tables up to NL $1/2
4. UIGEA

are you sure? I thought it's up to .10/.25.
Anyone using WillHill + others to show what's the difference?

Hi freecard4all,

WH have their own tables at Cryptologic, as the only site.

There are still donks there, especially at € and £ tables.

Best Regards

I don't think he was disputing the fact they have their own tables, the disagreement was the stakes at which they have them.

Games migth be tigth, but I still consider this to be a great network. Its pretty hard to beat that bonus+rakeback deal.
At this time of the day, it suffers hard from lack of americans though.

Re: What happened to the games at Cryptological sites?
 
how can it ne a great network. no freakkin games to clear your bonus and get rakeback.

6 months ago i had no problem getting 1000 mpps to clear 200$ bonus in 5 or 6 days.

now its big problem. im omaha plo and plo hi lo player.

ongame aint that much better, while more games its a contribution network.

The deal is still the same, but its pretty obvious you get less RB+bonus since the tables are tigther which means you and they generate less rake.

Re: What happened to the games at Cryptological sites?
 
lol. i can deal with tight tables. my point is nuttin going on for at least 60% of the day.

unless noor is playing. then lots of mpps even at lower limits.

Last time I checked (probably 6 months ago or so) it was definitely $1/2.
