Default Just how easy is it to close/re-open an acct at Pacific?

One of the big reasons I don't play on pacific is their rake, which is 50% higher than other sites at the stakes I play.

From what I've heard so far, they now allow RB, but I've also heard that it's extremely hard for players with existing accts to close their current acct and reopen a new one.

Can anyone confirm/deny this? I'm also open to hearing from affiliates who might have done something along these lines for their players.

FWIW, I'm actually going to live in a different country in a few weeks, so I'll have completely new info (neteller would be the same, but i guess i could use a dif funding source). The point is that unless Pacific was specifically out to nab me, it would be pretty hard to ID me as the same person who prev had an account with them.

Hmmm...I Think ppl can safely ignore this thread -- I found the thread from last month that apparently says that RB on PAcific is a no-go now (even though they briefly 'allowed' it or something).
it appears as though they simply don't let affil's see their individual players...is that right? And the lack of HHs (without HG) makes it too hard to do it via PT.

If my understanding is incorrect, though, feel free to let me know.

You are correct and the main reason they didnt want to get into rakrback is because of players closing accounts just to reopen them under an affiliate.

If there is one site where somebody would need RB it's would be Pacific. Raking uncalled bets and raking with no flop is absolutly ridiculous.

Reminds me of The Excalibur, but that game is very easy and beatable as well

Most of the individual trackers are gone. However, some were lucky enough to slip in. You still might want to ask around.
