Here is another thing, I am not really generating the amount of rake that I thought it would be either. I was guessing I could generate about $10 an hour for one table at $2/4 FR. Instead, it seems I am only getting about $3 an hour.

My losses are very slowly being overcome by the rake rebate, but I seriously doubt I'll ever be a net winner at the site strictly from playing. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

either improve your game or learn 5max. thats where the money is at, if you ask me.

i wish theyd make it 6 tables or something at least...

I wanted to give this site a chance, I really did. But I just think it has too many problems as of right now. This was the third night that I played on here. Tonight was the first time I experienced a terrible lag and probably at least 10 disconnects in 3.5 hours of play on 2 tables. That is annoying as hell. The second thing is that I calculated I would be making $10 worth of RB an hour at $2/4 FR but I am only getting at best $4.50 an hour per table. Not good. Third, I am on a 100 BB downswing. Now I am not a great poker player by any means but the games just might not be beatable for me. I am going to play at it throughout the week but so far my impression is just not favorable.

"Tonight was the first time I experienced a terrible lag"

sorry, that was me...

wpex rules becuase it is showing a ton of 2+2ers that they suck at poker.

disconnections are not very big issue because they happen to everyone, so nobody is at disavantage.
For those who 4 tables, they have 4 times more opponents who are disconnected/session but obviously you are not aware of this (except when they complain in the chatbox).
sure this is annoying, but for 6000$/month I will not complain.

heads up table:

its the only thing I wait from wpex to be a perfect place to play.

I need some help - I played my Tag style 6-handed fixed limit on Stars for 1 year on the low limits and was makíng slight profit.
But since I signed up with 250$ at wpex 3 days ago and after a first small win of 30$ (plus 60$rakeback) I am being completely overrun by those lags. I just don´t know what hands to put them on and what adjustments I need to make to at least break even(or lose less than the rakeback).

So far I lost 235$ and will be getting 120$ rakeback on Monday.

Do I need to loosen up and be even more aggressive to beat them with their own weapons?
Do I need to tighten up?
Should I not change my game at all and keep on playing my style?
I am just playing 0.5/1 5handed fl and $25 NL. The NL seems to be more beatable for me than the FL.
