Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

Since Expekt will move away from prima it would be nice if anyone could recomend another skin. I am currently thinking about switching to gaming club, any thoughts about that skin? Should I pick another, if so why?

The problem is, how long will it last? Once they get some customers I am pretty sure it will stop all of a sudden.

Edit: just read this at their site: ´"This promotion will be valid until 31 August 2005."

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

Go with the new Battlefield skin. Affiliates are offering 35% and the payments go directly into your account. In addition, they also offer online rake stats and instant rake back cash-outs.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

royal card club offers 35% rakeback deposited directly into your acct. see rakerebatereview.com for info. the affiliate is the only one listed from the UK.

as an aside, you should author a sticky in the computer technical help forum.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

Bet Hold'em offers 35% rakeback and have reloads.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

didnt know this was just a short term thing. i thought they killed thier monthly bons in favor of that

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

I think I might have found a good one now. Parbet. They seem to look very much like Expekt, same type of colors and fonts etc. Their instruction page how to start playing poker is scary like. They also have the same deposit/withdraw options as Expekt. They are also listed on primapoker.com witch alot of sites are not (I do not trust such sites). Anyone play there?

Compare these:
http://www.expekt.com/poker/start.jsp
http://www.parbet.com/poker/start.jsp

examples? the primapoker site list is generally well updated.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

Battlefield for example, hosted by same domain as rakebackpoker (sites look almost identical, very suspect). Royal card club is not there either.

Edit: I am not here to discuss rake back, the above mentioned but not linked site was just an example of two sites that were not listed at primas site and are very very similar witch is very alarming for me.

Parbet
 

I have nothing but good to say about parbet. They have actually same owners as expekt has, and it was the site I wondered if they will as well leave prima poker, but they told me that they have no plans to do that and are very happy with the current situation.

Deposits and withdraws are very fast and free of charge, at least to finnish bank account.

That was the first thing I thought about (see post above). They also had the exact same great deposit/withdraw options as expekt (witch is one of the main reasons I play at expekt).

Can you tell me what is so different about this compared to any other room?
Party, stars, UB etc?
I don't quite understand what is so great about Expekt's deposit and withdraw options.
thx

Well, you don't need any neteller or calling some foreign phonenumbers to verify that you are you. I had a realy bad experience with Party trying to sign up without my own phone (did not have one) and I did not have a drivers licence either and I had to call India to talk to someone who did not understand a thing... I ended up being banned... On Expekt I deposit with my VISA (could also do direct bank transfer) and I withdraw to my bank account (no fee). No other sites than Expekt and Parbet (both prima poker) have I seen that had it like that. Deposit by VISA is pretty standard but to withdraw FREE to a Swedish bank account, it's like forget about it.

By having it this way I do not need a Neteller account (and all hassles that comes with signing up with that) at all.

Seems like Parbet and Expekt might not accept Americans? Any idea?

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

No, they don't.

These two sites are both Prima site skins. That is why the sites look allmost identical, that is what a skin is.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

I have a couple of skin questions you can help me with. I've never played at any skin.

I visited Aztec Riches Poker website and it listed 800 players currently playing. This seems way too small for the whole Prima network. Doesn't playing a cash game on any Prima skin mean that you would be playing with all the cash game players at every Prima Network skin? I've heard that not all Party skins have access to all the Party tournaments, but I've never heard that about cash games.

Secondly, I visited the Gaming Club website, another Prima skin, and unlike Aztec it didn't list Omaha Hi-Lo as a game it offered. Wouldn't all skins offer the same cash games?

Also, if you could tell me the structure for Prima Omaha Hi/Lo Sit'n Go's I would appreciate it. I realize this may seem like a STT forum question, but I believe more Prima players will see this here than they would in the STT forum.

-Number of players per Sit'nGo table
-Number of starting chips per player
-Do blinds increase by hand count or time period?
-Blind levels

Thanks

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

I only tried two skins, Expekt and Parbet, both had all games (including Omaha Hi/Lo).

When it comes to Sit & Go there are several alot of diffrent sizes. The most common is 10 person. But there are also 2, 3, 4, 5, 15, 20, 30. Starting chips on all SNGs I played were 1000. Blinds increase by hand count (10). The standard blind levels are like this (some sngs have other blinds):

level 1: 10/20
2: 20/40
3: 40/80
4: 80/160
5: 160/320
6: 320/640
7: 640/1280
never seen level 8

I meant that the WEBSITES looked almost identical, not the client. All other prima skins have way diffrent websites. I think they are just subskins of another skin.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

I'm disappointed that there is absolutely nothing in this thread about witches.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

This is a poker forum, not a forum for retards.

I actually laughed my ass off. What he meant was "Witch" prima skin do you prefer should read "which" prima skin do you prefer

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

I like to push the Gaming Club Online Poker Room. I get great service and I can also listen to "On The Felt" poker radio as well whilst playing, those guys are classic.

Very amusing...

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

Depends what is important. Check them all out and pick the one with the best colour scheme. Belle rock gets you a 'cool' magazine, although you probably don't need to actualy play there. Personally I would go for the one with the best rakeback deal. Up to you.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

Thanks for the reply. I guess I'll get around to trying Prima after not too long. The only thing that concerns me is that it seems that posters here have frequently complained about difficulties getting cash-outs from Prima network skins.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

I can't talk for others but it is probably the skin it self that slows it down, not prima. I played on Expekt from january 2004 to august 2005, never took more than 3 days to get my money.

Acutally I left Expekt and joined Parbet (30%) since Expekt will leave prima in a few weeks.

Re: Witch prima skin do you prefer?
 

Will you still like it there once expekt leaves the nework?

It's both a question and remark.
