Come back to Interpoker!
 

Just got an e-mail with that title, saying I have a whopping $10 waiting for me if I play a raked hand. That did remind me that it's been a long time since I played on there.

What are the impressions these days? Worth playing that site? In the past, it was always $1/$2 bonus whores like myself. Can you easily track raked hands now? That was always frustrating before.

Any thoughts appreciated. I've been out of the loop.

not worth the hassle. The software rivals pacific poker.

Software still sucks, the bonus is a pain to clear (really need to play at least 2/4) but Intercasino's bonus rocks if you're into that kind of thing. Pontoon is fun, I worked my $180 (had two months stacked up) up to $450 then all the way back down to $30 when I finally finished. I highly recommend the casino bonus, it's risk free and a nice change of pace.

Ah variance.

I got one too. Guess I'm not as "special" as I thought.

I played 2k raked-hands there last month to play in their Caribbean Classic freeroll.
Like you, I had been playing there almost not at all.
don't think I had a hand there since Jan or Feb or so.


The games at 3/6 and 5/10 were quite fishy imo.

the software is still sucky and took some getting used to but I grew more familiar with it.


They offer these $10 and $20 little comeback bonus thingees sometimes if you've been missing for 2 mths or so.


tracking raked-hands is easy imo.
1 - they have those counter-things you can download (I don't have one...so don't know much more).
2 - hands go right to your hard-drive pretty much like party. so you can easily import them to p-tracker. and you can check your raked-hands there via the 'sessions' tab and then filtering by 'amount raked' in the upper-right.

They have changed their definition of raked-hand there.
Rake of $0.25 to $0.99 counts as just 1/4 of a raked-hand.
Rake $1 (or 1 pound or 1 euro) or more counts as a full raked-hand.

So I would imagine that getting your full requirement of hands in at 1/2 to clear the monthly bonus is quite difficult now.
Not so terrible if you play 3/6 or higher.



I'm not in love with crypto because of the software.
but the HH's download automatically and it's compatible with GT+. Plus, I'm getting rake-bkca there now (which is not affected by the monthly bonus), so I'm not opposed to playing there occasionally...especially if they happen to be running a decent promotion in a given month or weekend.

Re: Come back to Interpoker!
 

A couple of the affiliates are running crypto promos this month, so there's been an increase in the number of player at 2/4+ this month.

Re: Come back to Interpoker!
 

I found the software to be really bad, as in overloading my memory, until I got a new computer that had a graphics card with additional dedicated memory. Now it runs as smooth and cleanly as any other site I've been to. No bugs at all.

This is no longer neccessary. They have a counter built into the software now.

From the Main Lobby:
Cashier--> My Promotions --> Bonuses

This will list any current bonuses, show you the percentage you have completed and how many hands still needed to complete the bonus. It also shows any amount cleared/remaining if you played casino games.

The only issue with this is that you can not access the Cashier while seated at a table. So it would probably be a pain if you are there strictly to whore.

Re: Come back to Interpoker!
 

I flamed-out in the freeroll.
I finished around 180th out of over 1000 (top 30 got the CPC package).

My tourney/satellite play as been ultra-sucky lately.


Good info on the bonus-tab there.
I still had to use p-tracker for the 2k hands in October though as I'm pretty sure that wasn't listed under 'bonuses'.

Re: Come back to Interpoker!
 

I have serious problems with the crypto software. I can't update my email address in their software due to a bug, so I can't receive this kind of offer. I emailed interpoker and they can't update my address either! That's a pretty stupid state of affiars imho.
