Does anybody know anything about this site? I got an email offerring a "too good to be true" bonus but I don't want to risk much without info.

$500 bonus. Sounds a little too big.

I just downloaded their software and logged on. There were 2 active tables and a total of 6 players seated between the two tables.

The bonus detail is this: after making your first deposit, you will have your bonus bucks account credited with a 100% match. As you contribute a $1.00 in rake, you will have your bonus bucks account credited with $0.50. When that credit reaches $5.00, you will have that $5.00 credited into your real money account. These $5.00 increments will continue to be credited into your account until you have converted your entire bonus money account.

I don't think its worth it to pay 1/2 rake to sit at an empty table.

Don't play there. They were so cheap, they wouldn't pay to have the "ed" added to their letter head.

For those on the way home - "Deserted" Poker.

What kind of stupid name is that anyway?

Nomination for all time stupidest poker name: "Night Or Day Poker" They should just have been honest and called it - "Cyndie-was-too-busy-to-figure-out-a-good-name-for-this-craphole-poker"
