OT: Sngs on Ongame

vers · #1 10-01-2007, 10:47 PM

Does anyone play $20s --> $50s on any ongame skin? What is the quality of play like and how often do turbos run? I have heard the software is bad, but the deposit bonuses are pretty huge. They are equivalent to 62.5% RB (on Nextpoker through rakebucks) for the first month and then 50% RB for following months. Chanpoker's 100% deposit bonus is equivalent to 50% RB until you clear it.

I was watching it at around 10 pm (gmt -5) and they have like no volume. Sngs are loading so slow and there are very few turbos even running. Any feedback here would be great.

Also, do you think the "Mad All in TIlt Games" are beatable. You start with 60 chips and blinds start at 10-20, zomg!

Hi

I play almost excusively on the Ongame network at the moment and only play 6max turbo sng's. Generally anytime of the day I have no problem playing two $50+4 tourneys at a time continuosly and lately I can also do the same with the $100+8's. Sometimes it looks like there is noone there but once you register people tend to come along and join. By the way I also have the 62.5% deal and it is brillant especially when playing STT's which are overraked anyway. I find the play generally soft on the site even at the $100+8 level, there are just so many big losing players when you Sharkscope them.

Hmm, do you ever play 9 man turbos? I guess it's worth depositing like 500-1000 just to try it out. I can always mix it in with FTP.

I played a bit of 5 max turbo 30+3's clearing the PSO pokerroom promo and found them very soft and filling up reasonably fast.
The only downside is that the software is not so good for multitabling, but I will for sure sign up for another skin now when I completed that promo.

There is not bad action playing full ring (10 players) $30+ SnG. Its mostly action european timezones since US players cant play on Ongame.

Right now 12 $30+3 10 $50+5 and 7 $100+8 are running.
