Just an idea.It seems to me that there are quite a few people on this site that are willing to switch to poker mountain, or at least give it a try. Since we are in communication with the face of the company, perhaps we could get a bonus code that would make the switch worthwhile. Im sure with all the players on this site that play ridiculous amounts of poker (like me), the 25-35 people on PM now could grow considerably. I gusrantee that for each on of us that post on FCP there are 10 people that trust us on the subject of poker and where we play poker online. Just a thought, not trying to pimp you out too hard Daniel. We have twice as many players in our weekly tourney on PStars as PM has playing on it's site right now. I think we could help....

I agree, it seems like most here are interested in switching, but just hesitant due to the lack of action. Let's all just in the pool at the same time!

I have registered with Poker Mountain and use the play money account. I havent gone live yet for 2 reasons:1) Not enough action2) Im waiting for something like Scott mentions.Im sure the Negreanu Open being moved there when the software is ready for private MTT's will force many of our hands, but I would also hope that fullcontact members, maybe with 100+ posts for example could qualify for a special bonus.
All the best

I like the bonus idea; maybe some freerolls just for fullcontact members would be a nice gestureMy first impressions of the site:1. No log-on or connectivity problems; easy to log on2. Customer Service was fast as I e-mailed a question to support at around 9:00 p.m. west coast time and got a response within 5 minutes. Nice detailed response too; not some automated response saying "we have received your msg.."3. I only have pokerstars to compare it too, but the graphics on poker mountain seem sort of weak to me. 4. Also, the tabs and hopping between scheduled tournaments, registered tournaments, hold-em, omaha, is sort of strange. I don't have any other sites to compare it too so maybe it's just a matter of getting used to it.5. I think a full marketing push for fullcontact forum members is a great idea as the site just needs some more players to build some critical mass and good word of mouth.

Well I need to let all of you guys know that I have big plans for the people here at FCP over at PokerMountain. I'm just waiting for the go ahead from the higher ups to let me know when I can go forward with my ideas. Patience is a virtue not only at the poker table but in the business arena as well. Things will pick up over there for sure, and I can't wait to become more involved.

aww come on daniel, I'm rearing to goo allin with my J2o, lol. No seriously though, if I had more money then I would definetly jump on in. I think that it'd be cool if PM had a bunch of qualifiers for various ept, wsop circuit, and wpt events. The PP million was a huge success for PP and with several sites maybe looking to leave the WPT PM having their own WPT tourny would probably add many new people to the site

I signed up over there tonight. Jumped on the site and I think there were 54 players total. Haven't deposited yet - may hold off on that til the Forum Tourneys move over (I know, I know, said I wouldn't, yeah well, I was bluffing). The interface, to be honest, will take some getting used to. But with some hours of play, I think this will take care of itself. Watched a little bit of one of the $25 Bellagio prelims with TJ in it. He busted out in 9th, I think, went out with AQ to JQ, when the flop came 9-10-K, that was it for TJ with no Jack on the turn or river.One thing I did notice, as I was trying out options, however, was the "bubble" option. Turning this one caused the software to wig out, followed by an error message, and that was the end of that. I was able to log right back in, but that's something to remember for later.

yes, that sounds promising and can't wait till that happens. Tell them to switch the 800 starting off in a sng!Posted ImageI was just thinkin about that too.... I was wondering why there are tournaments for FCP at pokerstars instead of at PM.

To play against the FCP crew, with DN as the icing on the cake.Seriously, I play on 6 sites already I'd be willing to make it 7. All I need is a reason.

I am one of the 40 :D that is already on the site, and I hope ya'll do sign up. Although the traffic sucks right now, I can already tell you that the customer service is really good, I sent two or three emails and got a response within 10 minutes on all of them. Having that tourney on there would be a great way to get the numbers up. Glad I already won my seat to the Bellagio qualifier before all of you get there :wink: . See you at the tables.PC

I have been at Poker Mountain for a few months now.Thn major problem I have is with the deposit system. I don't think a site should make it hard to give them money.But I emailed them and several other options are suposed to be added soon.I too expect to switch full time there soon...

I couldn't figure out how to make a deposit after a couple of minutes so I just haven't spent the time to try to figure it out. :D
