[QUOTE=starscream1101;59201235]Very nice! I personally have performed better at this site than PokerStars and BetMGM with around a 100k sample. I also think the anonymous aspect can be suited well for some players and not as well for others. I initially thought my winrate would be lower because a lot of my strat is heavily focused on stats, but surprisingly it seems to be bette
Thank you!
[QUOTE=Jkwan889;59193627]I'm clipping along at ~10bb/100 over the last 4 months or so. Seems fine. No PLO though.

Hey BetRivers discord friend 😀
It’s me crzytimes.
Can someone simplify what I need to do to optimize rakeback for a Delaware resident? Thanks
Drive to PA to play. You getting 20% at most vs 70% default. I stay 3-5 days in PA to grind 8 tables non stop. While home only +500plo most of the time.
The results for the leaderboard that just finished are completely wrong right now 
WTF.
I was at a final table. Site's down for maintenence or some bullshit.
Unacceptable.
Update: received cash compensation, I think an ICM chop. Sweet.
you could play every free bingo and use all the 100 50% sport bonus. grind for top 3 in leaderboard and get close to 50% rakeback. but you will forever be annoy by the fact driving 45 mins will get you a lot more.
With ref to the RNG on BetRivers, it seems the only mention of their shuffle is:
"The first step to ensure that our games are fair is to shuffle and deal the cards fairly. We use a regular 52-card deck, and the cards are shuffled once right before the start of the hand. We never shuffle the deck while the game is in progress. We utilize the Fisher-Yates Shuffle modern algorithm."
It doesn't look like they have their shuffle tested/audited by an independent specialist company, as is usual for poker sites.
The FYS is decribed in Wikipedia at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher%E2%...

Not trying to be a conspiracy theorist but isn’t it Kinda crazy that regulated sites don’t require their rng to be audited by the state gaming commissions? That’s placing a lot of trust on these companies to be fair…

Hello all!
Thank you for raising that our Help Center article was missing this information:
All card deals on BetRivers Poker are generated using a Random Number Generator (RNG) that has been independently tested by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), a leading authority in gaming compliance testing. The RNG has also been certified and approved for use by the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB), ensuring it meets stringent regulatory standards for randomness and fair play in Pennsylvania’s regulated market.
This third-party certification is a prerequisite for licensing. We don’t take it for granted that we always need to demonstrate our platform is fair, and we will be updating our Help Center info this week.
Those players are definitely not winning, but every now and then for every 5 of those players 1 of them will run hot and grow a 400bb+ stack, but the other 4 players like them will bust a stack and maybe reload a few times before losing more and calling it quits. I think it's mostly a case of survivorship bias.
Finally a reasonable take…feels like everyone these days wants to blame the first sign of bad variance on rigged or cheating.
Anyone else having problem getting hhs send to email? Been using up hhs request each day for past week w no luck. had to manually get it from team service.

Kind of, i normally get them about 30 sec, but mine been being sent to the spam folder each time. I even tried to whitelist the domain for the emails but no success. Even my security tokens are being sent to spam for some reason.

Thank you.
Was it updated, as required?
Does clicking on get hhs from betrivers take a lot of resource or something? I am still unable to get any. And now when i talk to CS they keep telling me they talked to manager and someone will email me and nothing happen.
BetRivers is the best poker site I've ever played on.
Anonymous play is the nuts first of all. BR is the only legal American site that is anonymous to my knowledge. I personally get to make plays that I would never attempt versus tough opponents knowing who I was for the rest of my time playing on the website.
The graphics are pretty elite. They are exceptionally easy on the eyes, with several ways to customize. Graphics matter a lot for video games obviously, for TV and entertainment, and they are paramount to a good poker experience.
My account keeps getting gifted bonus money and bonus points. Today I logged in for the weekly Sunday Bonus Bank and was awarded $15 to play with in the casino. I never casino bet outside of these bonuses yet they keep trickling in.
All of the features are pretty good. There is enough rakeback I think. There are daily freerolls and 10-cent tournaments and a vibrant 1c/2c player pool. There is auto seating, 100bb-only buyins, and rat-holing is PERMITTED at any time. Even I enjoy resetting my stack at certain times!
On one hand I wish their support responded more often, on the other I can chat with Galfond on Twitter if anything truly pressing ever arose.
Bottom line is you are a dummy if you are in the chosen states and not playing on this website.
any tracking software that supports splash pots?
Yes, this information is available in our Help Center here!
