Appreciate you sharing this, hadn’t gone in and looked into it myself - a few thoughts. Adjusting the effective bb due to ante, the bb/100 isn’t quite as bad (still not great). To me, my benchmark for rake on this site would be more aligned with the COVID-era app clubs given the quality of games (haven’t played on wsop but assuming much tougher)I would love to

Good point about the effective stakes being higher. I think the triple blind games are pure rake traps for PLO. But for the $1/2 game its $400 stacks, the regular open is $8-13, and you start with $9 in the pot. I think it would be fair to call it 450PLO in terms of effective stakes. That puts the rake at 14bb/100 which is still high but less insane. I wish they did offer some form of promos though.

I've played a bit of the 2/4 game. I wish it ran more often as well. I am not much of a HU player so I don't open tables unless its 6 card PLO.


Decent site, I don’t like that I can’t put my own picture (or the option to disable all the stupid faces)

Fast payouts is a plus

The software is a little janky but it’s the best option I have in IL right now


I cashed out for the first time. I thought I completed everything, but did not get a confirmation email or see my balance go down by my withdrawal amount ($200). Was I supposed to get anything at this point or do we only get confirmation/balance to go down once it is processed?


6 max SNG. Let's go. Rakeback.

You can check your Transaction History. If you go into your wallet there should be a link for Transaction History and will show you the status of your redemptions.


I saw the Season of Legends campaign on Player City and decided to check it out. The €512k prize pool is pretty big, so it caught my attention right away.

Played a bit and it’s actually more fun than I expected. Has anyone here already hit one of those €1,000 daily drops?

It's anyone having trouble logging into the site thru app or desktop? I've put in my log info 15 times and they won't text me a code



I'm guessing I tried to log in too many times...I filed it an alert tix email so let's do how long this takes

The site is smart and put every big youtuber on their payroll so there is nobody to really set the narrative on the site. People see 4% rake with a $6 cap and it almost looks as if it is better than WSOP's 5.5% rake up to $3. It can be easy to see "well the rake is lower but the cap is higher, it probably evens out".The reality is this:A table of 200PLO on WSOP.com net rakes ab

Thanks for breaking this down, I had been wondering this myself.

That is wild how high the rake is. And it’s even higher given paying for time extensions which I often do, and the reveal half feature. That being said I’d still prefer it over boring site like Wsop. If other sites would implement the 3 blind with ante structure it would be fine but they’re being stubborn and won’t evolve with the times. People want action. They want a structure that encourages that. 2 blinds with no antes incentivizes nits to nit.


I've only played about 4k hands on gold and myself have hit quads twice withing 3 hands and have also witnessed a player hit a straight, full house and flush 3 hands in a row... less than 10 hands into his bullet lmfao the odds on both of these and within 4k hands just seem insane.

I don't care too much for triple blind as it makes the game a bit too short stacked for my liking. But large antes are incredible, and I don't have any desire to play online poker without antes anymore.

If only we had a site with access across the entire US with antes and semi-reasonable rake. Basically take clubwptgold, add in ability to have notes + player color coding, and then make the rake not entirely predatory. It would be a second poker boom.

It's better without the notes / color coding

What I do like is that the 28/15 nits have a tattoo on their stats that says "I'm a huge nit"

This helps out quite a bit. There's tons of tight players showing up at PLO lately (Canadians?) with stats like 11 percent raises up to about 15%


I don't think it is worth it on here at PLO and I gave it a real chance. The players are terrible but the rake is just eating the table alive. On top of the 4 table limit and no promos.

This is the best that online plo will likely ever be in the US forever.

If you don't think playing here is worth it, you need to get way better.

How high does the win rate need to break even at 1/2 or 2/4/8 PLO?


Probably pretty damn high. I'm guessing the people posting bashing posts are the ones running above EV. I'm not saying the site isn't beatable but you need an absurd winrate to beat the rake for any significant hourly especially at lower than mid stakes. That's a pretty undeniable fact.


And fwiw, and I think its worth a lot, one of the best players in the world is playing on Coin, Jnandez. Says a lot.


This is a wonderful site as far as MTTs are concerned, many tasty US fish at all times, nice selection of games... but holy crap, they gotta fix the structure of the 33 115k GTD Mystery Bounty. The nature of mystery bounty MTTs and the fact that it's a huge, relatively low-stakes tournament combine to effect massive stacks in play once you get to the final, like, 150, 200, 250 entries or more. Yesterday I was in the final 60 or so and at one point all players sitting had a minimum 60bb stack, with multiple players over 100BB. And given the very small blind increases for all of WPT's MTTs, this thing took FOREVER. This was 3AM EST and I think the thing lasted until 7 or so. I wouldn't actually know, as I was so tired and tilted from being stuck 4k on the day that I punted off my ~chipleading stack super hardcore as soon as all the good bounties were taken and went off into a night of blissful sleep.

It sucks pretty hard to have 1 game left for hours and hours after 8-tabling games for many hours in a row prior. I love this place, incredible action, so this is not a super important gripe, but speeding up the play late would make this tournament far more appealing for myself and I bet many others. Especially on a Sunday with larger player pools featuring countless players who need to go to work Monday morning.

I get they're on PST, maybe they're aware of this, done the math, and determined that this is fine. But there you go.


I actually like the no notes/color coding format. The fish who don't bother with such stuff are already punished enough. Same thing in the opposite way for the auto-HUD.


I noticed the site is offering a poker tournament titled the β€˜crown series’ anyone have the schedule yet?

TIA

it wouldnt be 2+2 if there wasnt players asking to make amazing games worse because of stuff and things

but will no one think of the stuff and things!?


I basically stopped playing cash here and only mtts, The rake is just too absurd when i am getting 40% on wsop and monthly reloads, card strikes, etc.
Don't like the 3 blind structure either, antes are fine but I feel like they do it just to generate even more rake.

Mtts are godly though, Never seen such soft mtts anywhere. Would be nice to get it added on sharkscope, Only opt in for players who want to.
