\"Crypto\" Sites ..... are they worth it?
 
Ive read recently a lot about crypto sites and their nice frequent bonuses. That being said I have never played at a Crypto site. So my questions are as follows.

1)Do they have 2/4-2/5 NL that goes frequently?

2) How is the user interface?

3)Are there rakebacks available?

4)Do you have to jump through hoops to cash out?

5) Are they trustworthy?

6)Is support good?

7)Are some better than others, or are they all the same?

8)IYHO Is it worth it to sign up??

1) Not sure - with only 2,000-5,000 players on at once I doubt it however they do have some pretty high stakes limit games.

2) Sloooooowest of them all

3) At one or two sites I believe - 6 of them have monthly bonuses for U.S. players.

4) No you just have to wait 10 days to get a pin, then cashouts are they typical day or two from then on.

5) 70 Million in cash

6) I haven't had to use them but others say no.

7) Pretty much all the same. Interpoker and William Hill are the two biggest I believe.

8) If you're a whore yes. At the stakes you play - maybe. If they do have that game running I'm sure it's REALLY juicy. I play $100 PL/o8 on occasion and it's super soft.

If you play 2/4 NL you are probably better off at a site that deals more hands per hour.

Even the 6-max limit tables don't manage to deal much more than 50 hands per hour!

Actually the support at William Hill rocks. But they run their own in the UK instead of subcontracting to India.

1. Yes they have 2/4 and 2/5 but they are not that frequent. Yet you can find a L150/L300 fixed limit game about anytime.

2. Interface is slow and if you play four tables at once it really bogs down.

3. I don't know of any rakeback schemes there. Usually I make a bunch of money there and don't care about the rakeback.

4. No hoops. Just have to wait for a PIN number for withdrawls. For me to get them in Florida takes a week to ten days. William Hill you don't even need a PIN number. Cashouts from WH take less than an hour after your first one.

5. Trustworthy....yes.

6. Support is terrible. Send an email to get a new PIN and it takes 6 weeks to get it. Phone calls go to Cyprus and their main office is in UK. Sucks very bad.

7. All the sites feed into the same tables from which ever site you are at. All are basically the same. Only difference is that some sites pay a bonus for raked hands, dealt hands or time at the table.
a. Interpoker-450 RAKED hands gets 90 dollar bonus for a 90 dollar deposit. You must make a deposit to get the bonus. You can now clear the bonus either playing poker or in the casino. I cash out money out of here every month. They have the best freeroll overlay of any site.
b. Caribbean Sun-250 RAKED hands gets 40 dollars. No need to deposit this is not a deposit bonus. You can leave the money in the account.
c. Poker Plex-400 DEALT hands for a 50 dollar bonus. As long as you see the cards it counts. They say it has changed to raked hands but by my count it hasn't. THis may change soon.
d. William Hill-5 hours of play for a 45 dollar bonus. Paid into your account every hour but only after you stop playing. Play 1 1/2 hours and get paid for the one complete hour. Play 1/2 hour and get paid for the next hour. You can play 4 tables at the same time and clear the bonus in 75 minutes. Also deposit into their casino and get a 40 dollar match. Casino match WR is 25x
e. UK Betting-5 hour. Same as WIlliam Hill. But this site is only in pounds. The british players are nuts. You can make crazy money here. Casino match is 25 pounds. Now you must play 40x to clear the match bonus and then another 1000 in wagers to cash out. Still okay but tougher now.
f. Total Bet-same as UK Betting.
e. Classic Poker-they only offer a one time intial sign up bonus and that is it.

7. As a bonuswhore my winnings and bonuses from these sites keep me home and not needing to go out and get a job. I love these sites overall.
