Fast Poker: Any of you guys play here?

Have any of you gentlemen ever played here before? I couldn't find a review at BW or Pokerlistings, so I figured somebody at the zoo must have an account at this place and be able to help me with this one. Thanks in advance. 'Stosh

I have played there. The competition is weak (yay!), at least at low limits. Customer support is terrible, bonuses are nil, software is slow, can only play one table....

With all the other sites out there, I can think of no good reason to play there, other than 75% of players seeing the flop.

It is a skin of sportingbet and totalpoker.

Fastpoker will 100% definitely ask you for ID on cashout. Sportingbet never asked for ID, and ive never used totalpoker.

My understanding of skins are sites which share tables and so a player at one site will also be playing at the other. This is not the case. I think Fast Poker and Sportingbet only use the same software. And Sportingbet seems to handle all of the transactions for Fast Poker...kind of an interesting arrangement, but not technically a skin...I think.

I know for a fact that Sportingbet and TotalPoker are the same software as least based on players and tables.

Why in the world would they require an ID upon cashout? I've never had to do this with any other site I've played on. 'Stosh

I am pretty sure it is because they were casinocraze.com and most casinos ask for ID. They have simply brought their casino mentality into their pokerroom.

Bonus sucks
Slow Play
Slow Cashout - will require ID
but the players suck so it is well worth it IMHO
