Specifically what? I had no problems with the software when I played there. Not the prettiest but works just fine.

I agree, that site is so slow. It drives me nuts.
Also, something about the color scheme is very
unappealing to me as well. I could really care less
about the color, and am willing to deal with that, but
the slow speed keeps me away from that site in too much
doses.

It would be my site of choice if the software wasn't so bloody slow. Best bonuses on the net IMO. They pretty much pay you 10 bucks/hr to play poker.

Honestly, take some of that bonus money or whatever and upgrade your PC a bit. I have a 3 Ghz CPU and 1 gig of ram and have no problem with 3 tables up. What does this cost <$500 Canadian? So $400 american. Even a 2Ghz, there is no reason to be running anything less, especially if you are "making money" through bonuses or whatever. I see people complaina bout this all the time and they are running their sh!tty P3 800, get with the times!

my comp doesn't lag with the software, it's just so ugly and i'm used to party's.
also i don't like the number of tables. it's hardto get ina full ring game, and also there are like 3 full ring games at the .25/.50 big blind levels..
just a big change from party. the bonus is the only reason im here.
although i did make 200 easy in an hour last night. people were going all in preflop with a6 and 22. lol

I can three table no problem. The problem is the software is just SLOW. Like Pacific, only worse. Not slow because of my computer or other people's computers but because the software is just horrible quality. You can play at least 50% more hands/hr on Party or Prima or UB.

One day I was playing a SnG on Ultimate Bet and a freeroll on Absolute at the same time. We'd play 2 to 4 hands on UB to every one on AP.

On my AMD 1700+ the AP software will CRAWL. If I play a tourney that last 2+ hours I will actually be into my time bank by the time I am able to fold/check/raise.
