Poker.com Review

heh, sorry. What Cowboy said.

Thanks cowboy for the info.
Well its my second day on the site and i think ive found a new home The ring games are way easier than pokerstars, even with the low timebank. I dont like how u cant filter the action chat and did i mention the low time bank ? LoL Overall though the im raking up on CP really fast and the THF bonuses shouldnt be a problem to clear.
I havent played any tournys or SnGs but the 7 min lvls kinda scare me, i cant say for sure until i play in a couple. On that note do u guys have advice as far as tournys are concerened ?
Whats killing me the most is that i work on monday, wednesday and saturday so i cant play in any of the weekly freerolls

Well, the 20k freerolls are on Sunday so you should be good there. The SnG's I've tried took a while to fill up, so I haven't played many. I played a 10K tourney and won $126, I think. I really believe the bread and butter on this site are the ring games. I do pretty well at the 6-man tables.

Yes u can play in the sunday 215pm 20k freeroll D. You only need 2000 cp's for the week to enter that... I know Jeremy has done well in that and I have also cashed .

I personally have started having 2nd thoughts about whether or not it will continue to be my "ring home"... my $1300 BR dropped to $980 last night in 42 minutes of play due to these 4 hands:

need2runners:
Board:
ALL IN after the turn
Opponent holds


need2runners:
Board:
ALL IN after the river
Opponent holds


need2runners:
Board:
Small bet called on flop, bet - was raised - called the turn, bet - raised - reraise - ALL IN after the river
Opponent holds:


need2runners:
Board:
He check raised the flop, checked the turn and bet - raise - ALL IN the river
Opponent holds:


FOUR times in 42 minutes I flopped sets, middle card, and was up against top set each ^$^&$ time. On none of the hands did I ever get a chance to lay it down either... 4 straights and 4 flushes show up but Ive already made my boat! Not a very good night.

I cashed out from there in disgust and I'd actually multiplied my starting chips by over 3 times, thanks to their freeroll tournaments...I may be stupid for withdrawing, but it's no fun losing to someone in ring games just because, for instance, they raised and bought their perfect river...you have to play these first to get into the tournaments and it was just too mentally hurtful...I don't want to spend my days in that frame of mind for a few dollars...of course, the amazing situations can and should happen randomly sometimes...I just don't feel comfortable there now and that's not a good frame of mind to be playing in...

I've taken hits there too, but not nearly as bad as I've been hit on other sites. Fink, I had a run like that, tho not nearly as expensive. Took about an hour away from the computer, came back and was able to get back to where I started.

People buying pots is not exclusive to Poker.com. Getting rivered is not exclusive to Poker.com. I can't count the number of times I've had the best hand and gotten beat on the river at Poker Stars. Tripling your chips through their freerolls is a nice accomplishment but don't you find a lot more maniacs in the freerolls than on the ring games?

If u qualify for the WSOP can u unregister and get the money or u have to play it ?
