Dear WSEX, the most important thing you can do...

The most important thing they can do is recruit more players -- the unwashed poker masses.

Too true. Unfortunately I don't see how they are going to be able to do that, they have no affiliates to advertise for them, and I imagine they won't be looking to spend a fortune on marketing for a product which has no direct income for them.

I think we have a role to play here in 'getting the word out'. There are plenty of gambling forums out there populated with players who could be persuaded to move over to WPEX. If we could all just spend a couple of minutes a day posting messages on these it could be highly beneficial. Also writing letters to gambling publications 'enlightening' readers to the amount of rake they pay and informing them of WPEX could help.

OK, time to go spam a few forums... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Right now there are 6 1/2 tables, 3 2/4 tables, 5 3/6 tables, and 6 5/10 tables going on a Tuesday night,

I wasn't able to play last night (getting my car fixed - had to drive an hour to...nevermind - long story),
but
is the above true?

Sweet Jesus - 6 $5/10 tables! And 5 3/6?!?!?! That makes some room for some big time game selection!
All
11 of those tables can't all suck!

And for the guys b*tching about not getting their RB until Tues. or Wed. or whatever - grow up!
Would you
rather them pay you monthly (and a week and a half late sometimes), like most Rake-back affiliates do???

And about the
Rake tracker not working - give them a break! Estimate the rake you are generating yourself (you lazy whining b*stards!) and
then
compare it to what they end up giving you. I did - and it matched up nicely!

I also used their live support chat and it was very nice! I give them an A+!!!

I also made a $500. Cash-out and got it fast! (less than a day!)

I can overlook a few minor glitches...besides, they should all be fixed in a month or so - so
GIVE WSEX a break! AND STOP COMPLAINING! YOU ARE GETTING A NICE CHUNK OF FREE MONEY EVERY WEEK FOR
PLAYING POKER YOU IDIOTS!!!

If I run consistantly -1BB playing and +3BB from rake, then sure Im a winner overall money wise....

.....Id rather keep my 2BB+ WR at other sites...as well as another bet or so of other player incentives.

You do realize these are the EXACT same win rates right?

Yet one is not cool and the other is?

all-

is there reason to believe that their player base will expand anytime soon?

[/ QUOTE ]

Granted we live in an age of instant gratification but yes. When I first opened my WSEX account there were 720 players, on Tuesday when I played there were 1,200+.

A 60% + gain in 2 weeks is to most people considered 'gaining players'.

Will they have 80,000 by year end? I doubt it.

It will be slow but FISH talk, mainly to other fish.

Once they come in and lpay then see $100 appear in their account IN A WEEK they will tell their buddies.

They will have no idea why they get what they get but they will figure out they are getting $100 a week bonus!!

Have something that shows the RAKEBACK other than the account balance going up, and make it obvious. Send an email, put a message on the site the next time they log in.
"Congratulations! $100 has been added to you account for last weeks play."

But hey give them time.

OK...so I DL'd WPEX to take a look and I see it is a skin of hilosplit. How many more skins are there on this network?

[ilovebadbeats]

FWIW, I also see a small WPEX block ad right here on 2 + 2...

I hope everyone in this thread who asks for things from WSEX is making sports wagers, because without that, say goodbye to rakefree by the end of the year.
