Been wondering this for a while, seriously why aren't all the main sites using fast software like UB. In addition being great for Customer Satisfaction, it seems they would make more money by being able to have more hands per hour played thus a higher rake. thoughts?

Once you have something working for a main application, you don't tend to touch it that much to make improvements. Why? Well they are costly because of how late they come in the design process(i.e. after the whole thing is done and implemented) so the improvement has to be of great value or it just won't happen until enough requirements are put together to make a new version. Now why didn't this happen at Party were every added penny of rake is a huge gain? I have no idea.

Not sure. I just wish other sites had a miniview feature as an option. I'm surprised others don't have it. Took no time to get used to for me.

Maybe 2+2 shoudl come up with a poker room. 100% rake back for 2+2ers. All the built-in features we would want. The best ring games, the best tourney structures.

That would be awesome!

Nope. Can you see why?

I don't know why, but when I play PS now it seems soooooo slow by comparison. At UB I can play just one table and get in 130+ hands an hour pretty easily (6-max). At PS I need to play 2 tables to do so.

Not a big deal really, 2 tables on a slower site is managable. Playing multiple 6-max tables at UB is pretty intense. Just 2 tables takes my full concentration at UB speed. At PS speed, I can still watch football and play 2 6-max tables.

Now...if UB just had more players /images/graemlins/frown.gif
