I signed up to them for a new room. It's primarily OFC so if thats what your after then it's spot on.It was just OFC and a variant or two,I just checked though and they now offer NLH too now.

Its safe as I ended up using them as a sportsbook.

Yeh, just noticed last night that they introduced NLH and PLO and that there is no rake, would be funny if you could work off the deposit bonus as well Laugh

Signed up today. Good luck finding Holdem and PLO, searched everywhere on there Windows Client, cant find them, someone on 2+2 says he's played them though Sad

Installed just now. If the games start running, I'm gonna snap call on this! Software looks awesome as well. I doubt the games will be rake free for much longer though.

I am in UK, wondering whether they only released it for the Baltics. Just tried using hidemyass, thinking I could download the client through that, but wont download it, do you know of any other VPN's I could use?.

Nah, can't be Baltics only. In UK poker is regulated, so might be they didn't bother getting licence and stuff.
Try tunnelbear / Hotspot shield - both you can try for free.

Dont think its that either, because when I was signing up it asked me to look at the gambling commission website, if I wanted to know about how they segregated the funds, but the site was down. Tried Tunnelbear mate from Switzland redownloaded client, and before I even logged in I knew it was the same lobby as before, so looks like thats a bust, think I might just have to wait for support to get back to me about it.

I am actually going to sign up and download today and probably make a video due to hearing about them charging no rake for any nlh cash games. Currently running 4nl-50nl i believe and yeh 0% rake being taken. Nice marketing stunt by them which will work for sure. Full article Here

"PLO and NLHE games not available to UK players until they get the required license."

Saw this at 2+2.

Good luck at making the video Jon - I'm keeping an eye on the lobby and haven't seen any NLHE going, just some PLO games; there was a sick PLO25 game yesterday, I witnessed a 175 EUR pot lol, it's 700bb!

Sooo, I saw some a NL50 table going, deposited 350 eur right away, and sat down. So here are my first impressions.

- no auto top up;
- no preferred seat (can't switch even the seat view);
- "sit out next bb", "sit out next hand" buttons not working;
- when I type in betsize manually and hit "enter", nothing happens, "bet" button has to be pressed by mouse;
- not working with HM2 opened.

+ no rake;
+ table looks very smooth;
+ NO RAKE!!!!.

I got only 2-3 handed NL50 game, and HU NL25 table going for a bit, and I didn't notice any real fun player, just regs checking out the rake free games Smile

Been playing the OFC on there for a while, but I'd imagine the cash games will be full of regs especially with it not being a run of the mill poker site as well

Heh, TonyG was gambling (literary) in 2x PLO50 (biggest stakes available) tables (ppl like 200e deep). I sat on his direct left, typed in chat if he's really TonyG, to which he said "Yes". I was so tempted to post blinds and play with the legend, but I knew I'd lose my moniez, and I pussyed out. Sad
If he was at NL table, I'd surely give it a spin..

I tried it a couple of days, but the number of players around is at a very low level. Did anybody notice this also?

Which stakes do you play?

There is no doubt this is one of the lower traffic sites out there but I have never struggled to get a game and also if you sit people join pretty quick.

i played 5,10 en 25NL
but stopped because i need to deposit again. Every good draw i had lost to just a higher card, was very very strange.
