Default Re: Why not WSEX?

Leaving aside the pros and cons of WPX for the moment, the basic question is, "Why aren't there other online card rooms competing based on price?".

There are. At least there are for non-US players. There are plenty of sites where I can get the equivalent of anywhere from 50-75% RB when including RB, bonus, etc...and the play is a lot softer than at WSEX. For non-US players, there is no incentive for us to play with the sharks at WSEX. The extra 20-40% in RB (or even less sometimes) is more than made up for by the soft players elsewhere.

US players have it a little tougher. There is not as much incentive for the sites to compete on price, because there is less competition. Also, one has to assume there is a little more overhead taking on US players with all of the headaches of finding banking options that work, concerns about legal troubles, etc.
