Thx.

Probably because i don't get a rake back deal at one at their affiliates [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

If you arent paying rakes or a membership fee to play poker it doesn't seem worth it.

I was just checking the site.

After 2 min it said 1% ready.

Who wants to pay $30 a mon
th to a site that has no players that may or not be owned by Dutch Boyd?

One very good reason is because it is supposedly owned by Dutch Boyd, who previously owned a poker site which abruptly closed down and took all the players money and didn't give it back.

They have no revenue so they can't advertise or pay affiliates.

There are not enough heads up players in the whole world. Fabulous Poker has been offering heads up tables rake free for over a year or something (pretty strange really as they have the highest category rake online) but there's generally up to no-one playing, though their lowest limit is 2-4 there -- pretty wrong as the less players the lower the limit needs to be - the opposite is PokerStars that has only 1c-2c/2c-4c heads up tables, not counting the tournaments.
