    I played on it just to give it a try.

    Very processor intensive, very slow game play.

    But being able to do chip tricks and look shocked any time somebody checks easily makes up for it imo.

    Unbelievely soft there but multitablings a pain and as RJ said its very hard on the processor. It shoulnt take hours unless your on dialup although it does take a good while, i think its a couple of hundred MB's if i remember correctly

    If there was a way to play on the tables (6-8 of them) without all the razz-a-matazz I would probably play there all the time. I can't imagine how many bad players play there for all the crap that comes with it, and how many good players don't because of all the crap.

    It could be a goldmine for them, I really don't know why they don't do it....

    i played on there when pkr first launched, must have been a couple of years at this point. I threw in 50 euro and spun it up to nearly a grand in 4 days - standard is absolutely awful and the 2/4 nl game played like a bad 50/1 game on ipoker - however it is VERY slow and terrible for multitabling. It is a bit of fun and the graphics are fairly good - it also has some decent features, eg if a you raise and dont get called, you can throw over one card onto the table and not reveal the other one, also if its heads up in a pot and you decide to fold you can show the villain what you are folding - stuff like that should be brought into ipoker and other sites imo. If you are not in the game to make big profits/multitable i would recommend throwing a few euro in

    That folding and showing is on the prima network as well.

    I played there at 2/4 for ages when Tribeca went and found it very soft. But playing 3 tables was really hard to manage, and no PT stats made it worse.

    At the time I was concentrating on playing one table at a time so it was ideal.
