Im sorry to say but i think you are wrong thewildone, the 60% stat refers to the ealier days when prima was smaller but it was the correct then. I cant say much about the proportions today but it will have huge inpact on the prima network...

The guys who own expekt own as well one other prima poker room, but it didin't say anything about that on the press release so it's intresting if the ohter site will stay in prima network.

Exactly my point [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I think this whole thing stinks. I started playing on Expekts poker within two weeks from when they started and played ever since. Another funny thing, first time ever I got a email from expekt with reloadbonus was ONE DAY before the official news about the break up. I think they want people to deposit so the players has a reason to keep on using expekt after the move. I also checked out some screenshots of the new software, seems very very alot like the microgaming one, but I am more worried about the player base...

The best thing about expekt (been sportsbetting there long before I started with poker) was that it was easy to deposit with VISA (small fee) and then cash out directly to my bank account (no fee). I have never ever needed to proove my identity with calls here and there and faxing copies of drivers license (witch I do not have) and other crap. I still have not found another prima skin with the same banking features that has no hassels.

I checked the posts and we will be happy to add to your discussion. Please do not list me as the CEO of Prima, as I am their PR council in the US.

Look for the post by Monday.

Cheers,

Chris

Website of the new software provider (Tain) lists an impressive tournament schedule, so perhaps they have what they say on another page, a "critical mass of players".

Anyone know when that expekt reload expires? Does it expire the last day they allow the bonus or do you get something like a week from the date you deposit?

guess Expekt will lose player base since most of their players will probally want to continue to play at the prima games cause they are so loose.

Expekt has a lot of the players on prima. And I expect many of their customers (mainly scandinavians) to follow. Scandinavians don't seem to care about client, since most of them play on crappy ones like Prima, B2B etc. They do follow the big names instead (Expekt, Unibet, Ladbrokes).

Tain already had an OK sized network (mostly euro sportsbooks) before the expekt move. I think prima will be the ones getting hurt here.

On a related note, guess who starts working for Tain in 12 days? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
