Everyone is saying that Interpoker is full of fish and that it is easy peasy to win there - but I don't agree at all. I've played at Empirepoker, Multipoker and Unibet and I won quite often there - especially at Empirepoker. At Interpoker everything just went straight to h-ll. Lost everything and just had a really bad experience.
I also think their counting of the raked hands is a bit weird. I've played a lot of hands but they claim I've have a massive amount of rakes to play before I get my bonus (which I don't intend to get anyway).

It can be "easy pickins" just because of the popularity that poker has gained in the past few years. Everyone wants a piece of it. The internet is the easiest and least intimidating place for these fish to swim to, but theres still quite a few sharks out there who will gladly take your money.

Jeppski,
If you are not used to playing .50/1 or 1/2 then Interpoker can be intimidating, because you are not comfortable (playing above your bankroll). The lowest limit that Interpoker has is 1/2.
As for counting raked hands. I use PokerTracker, I will manually total the number of raked hands I played in each session. This has been quite accurate.

Jes_gru,
Thanks -I'll check up PokerTracker...
Besides that: Has anyone else had problems "shifting" between different online poker sites?

Interpoker is just a different type of player. They are very weak-loose if you know what i mean, where as Poker stars is weak-tight and Party is just weak.
Interpoker is also home to europeans that play their mostly. Those crazy brits have minds of their own...

If you're playing ring games, isn't party and empire the same thing?
