    Default Suggestions for another poker site

    Ok, here's the situation. I usually play on Stars or FT, but my connect to stars is really, really horrible unless I play early in the morning or late at night. Our broadband is especially slow down here, even the God-damn pigeons are faster than our broadband.

    I've emailed r a k e b a c k p r o s and checking if fulltizzle are going to give be rakeback, otherwise I may consider moving my roll to another site. Previously I have splashed around at Pacific, Party, Tower, Titan and Absolute so it can't be one of those as I'd like to join a site with a decent welcome bonus. Rakeback isn't that important, but would be nice.

    I was considering Cake but do they seriously ban HUD's? If they do, it's no wonder they're smaller than FT and Stars ... you're not going to attract multi-tablers doing business that way.

    Anyway, it needs to be a bonus I can clear playing $6 - $25 turbos or double or nothings (depending on the skill level of the site). Volume-wise we are probably looking at 50 games on average a day if the site can offer good multi-tabling facilities, which is another important consideration. I would need to be able to play 10+ tables at once, otherwise it's probably pointless for me to shift my roll.

    Any suggestions?

    It sucks, coz multitabling +10 tables elsewhere than PS is today almost impossible with similar comfort. Even with Fulltilt i have a big problem to open more than 8-10 tables in my playing time.

    I strongly recommend you before signing up, download SW and check multitabling possibilities at you favourite playing time.

    Took me about 60days for RakebackPros to get me accepted for rakeback on Fulltilt (my g/f then sent in a request and she got it within a week... .I guess they were accepting a bunch that week).
    Don't have any sites to recommend... sorry.

    R a k e b a c k p r o ' s have unfortunately rejected my application owing to the fact I signed up through an affliate and they say it's violates their agreement with that affliate.

    I think that's fair enough, but I'm starting to feel annoyed that I'm not getting rakebizzle while many other players are getting 27%. It's enough for me to leave full tilt, which I have indicated to them as soon as my Cake rakebizzle deal gets approved.

    What sngs are you planning to play at cake?The dons are slow filling up and there are only ever 1 or 2 open in the lobby at any one time,which is a pain if you want to multitable.The rakeback deal is excellent gets put into your account weekly.Let me know if you want any info about the buyins,structure of the games etc on this site.

    I was thinking about DON, but with this knowledge I'd probably 6-table the $25's, constantly opening a new table everytime I bust out. I watched a $25 tournament last night and the structure is quite similar to the Stars turbo's. The skill level of some of the players seemed quite low as well.

    If volume is an issue I might try multi-tabling the $16's or something like that.

    I'm trying to decipher exactly what this means.... I think it means piss off, we're not giving you rakeback. Maybe they'll cave if I withdraw my money...

    "Hello Rob,

    There is a test group of players who are not linked to any affiliate, who have been assigned to an affiliate 'rakebackpros'.

    The reason for why we were unable to put your name forward for consideration is because you are already linked to an affiliate. It would violate our Affiliate Agreement to move a player off of an affiliate account.

    Since you have not been receiving rakeback from this affiliate, we have placed you on an alternative list for upcoming promotions as compensation.

    Regards,

    Emily

    Nakumura.The $25 dons take an age to fill up.I dont think its helped the fact that cake was down for the best part of a week when their systems crashed and maybe some players may have gone elsewhere.But like i said you will be waiting all the time for the games to fill up,if you dont mind that then you should enjoy it at cake.

    Cheers for the HU, I appreciate it. I may have solved my PS connection issues, so I might not need to switch after all
