    I'm currently on GJP and it's handy for rakeback and all that jazz but the traffic on it is very poor (low level SnGs is what I play). Now, do I move to Pokerstars and give up the rakeback? Or should I continue to stick it out with GJP?

    I have tried the majority of sites and Fullt tilt is the best for bonuses (other than rakeback). Plenty of differant games too

    Is it worth leaving the rakeback behind though? I try to get 50+ games in a week.

    Full Tilt generally offer 27% rakeback to players who sign up through affiliates. I think the very max you can possibly get is 33%.

    So it is worth leaving GJP? The traffic is the only thing I have a problem with really.

    Thanks btw.

    Then try them in unison for a while, see which you prefer.

    Poker sites are like women really, they don't mind being put in competition against each other.

    FTP do have good rakeback...27% is decent for a class site..

    No RB offers and the likes fellas. Even if you're not offering it yourself. PM's are the way to go.

    Also on FT 27% is the maximum that's allowed to be offered by anyone.

    Also to the OP, I doubt you're getting "Rakeback" from GJP, they're loyalty bonuses, "Rakeback" is not allowed on iPoker, AFAIK they're kind of anal about the word "Rakeback" being mentioned about a skins "Bonus" and loyalty offerings. :rolleyes:

    Just to make sure everyone knows, the rules here are there's no discussing where to get RB or asking for RB. Put it in your sig.

    I'll leave this thread open, but it's getting close to having to be locked.

    Lol, at deleting the post by the Boylepoker representative who was generously suggesting the op plays at fulltilt.

    LOL, I had a little chuckle to myself as I did it too... :D:D

    Im shocked you think GJP traffic is bad ! The i poker network for low sngs fill up grand ! i have played 50sngs in 5 hours before no problem.

    They do get a little slower after 2am but its not that bad

    Full Tilt is far from class. Its the most annoying Poker site that I know. Games are hard to find, hand history is rubbish and these are just a few things I dislike.

    Been waiting 10 mins on a game this evening, me being the only person in the room.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 384 ✭✭Vamoose Killers


    Ughh, went to play a long session at $30 10 seater sngs last night at around 10pm. Took quite a while for the first table to fill up but eventually things got underway. Registered for the second tourney, 30 mins later and I was still the only one there. Absolute joke!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,083 ✭✭✭max_power


    It's cause everyone's playing the double up sngs since they've been introduced.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 384 ✭✭Vamoose Killers


    Hmmm, what are they now? :D Better than the 10 seater sngs?

    Have been out of touch lately!

    10 seaters, 5 get paid, flat payout of double your money (i.e., the same for 5th as for 1st)
    Very popular, I hate them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 384 ✭✭Vamoose Killers


    Hmm, what sort of strategy do you apply there? I take it the passive-aggressive approach some take in normal sngs is out the window? Don't like the sound of them at all to be honest.
