Default How are the games at Pokerroom?

I haven't tried out the games yet at pokerroom but thinking of setting up an account at Bayoupoker. I heard about the crappy and slow software. How about the games? and what are the peak times? Thanks.

Great if you dont mind paying out the nose in rake. It's way too high.

PokerRoom is teh suck.

1.) get $200 PC
2.) install Party software
3.) play cards
4.) compose note to Zen thanking him

Seriously, I trained on PR and after moving to Party
I hate myself for not getting a PC earlier. (It will
pay for itself that same day/week)

If you work the bonuses + rakeback at PokerRoom it is very OK.

However, from what I understand absolute is the way to go if you are going to rakeback whore, and of course Party is the place if you want to make money playing poker.

Pokerroom software sucks balls. It uses like all of my computers resources & my computer is pretty good. Their rake sucks balls. The 2-4 and 3-6 games full and short have lots of lags which is great for running good and sucky for running bad lol.

The tournament players are likely the worst I've ever played with, and the site is small enough to yield a mid-range field size that some users prefer.

I'd rather overdose on ecstasy than play cash games there.
