There have been a bunch of threads on 2+2 about this site...apparently they're the top site for online backgammon players and they've just opened up a poker room. Right now they're offering 1000% signup bonus (up to 5000) along with a player program where they'll pay you up to $12 an hour to play. I signed up the other day...the graphics arent the best and there arent many players as of yet (theyve been open for about a week). But i figure with a chance at this much money, some of you may be interested.

sorry, guys, i just read over my post....i really dont mean for it to be spam, i just thought some people may be interested in checking out a new room. If my post sounds too much like an advertisement feel free to delete it, i didnt mean for it to come off that way

I played backgammon there for quite some time. They must not have sent me the open for business email that they were supposed to.And yes, it is for certain the top bg site.

I'm playing there now and the bonus is paid in parts daily. The games are pretty soft to me and I think they are going to add new features. They even had the Omaha table giong yesterday. Hopefully more players will come.I'm also signed up to the VFP program, so I'll let you know if I'm paid properly or what.

so far my experience hasnt been too good here, ive been getting alot of made hands cracked, and thats never a good thing :twisted: Still not many people on the site yet...mostly good players. but once the fish start showing up, the bonus will be more attractive.

Guys, GAMES GRID is soft. I'm not the best ring player, but have been dominating the players there this week. Anyways, if you sign up for the 1000% bonus, put BigBabyJesus in the player referral box and we both get something. Good luck.

limit is tight, but i havnet had too much trouble posting a profit playing it. and for those of you interested, just last night they added some 7-2 Triple Draw Lowball tables...i didnt see anyone playing them just yet, but i know its a fav game of daniels and maybe of a few others around here

[HangukMiguk]

the night i played there...i could not get it to respond to anything but the fold button. i tried raising several times, and got auto-folded.it may have just been a fluke, i'll try again tonight.but if they get the kinks out of it, it'll be a good site.

Good site so far. I dont mind it one bit.This is what I love about it. You signe up for the vfp bonus. You get paid per table/hour. Now the site game system is slower than other sites. Usually only like 50-70 hands an hour. So you can play more tables per hour and still have seen the same amounts of hands as other sites. Yet they pay you!Limit... hard to say. I have played it 3 days and have found it very tight some days and crazy others.NL... only played 2, 1 hour sessions. Sat at .25/.5 for an hour with 25 bucks cashed out 155. Played 1/2 and made 8...ho hum.2/4 Im down a bit, but not as much as Im getting paid to play.3/6 up 100 in 2 hours of play...all very short amounts of play so stats dont mean anything

[Kevin Garceau]

Damn...just got my weekly VFP pay.... I dont care how ugly or lame the site is.Getting paid that amount is AWESOME!

i was just going to make that post...i actually had a down week last week, but i look today and i actually MADE money during a downswing. Not too bad at all :-)

[Kevin Garceau]

Well Im making good money at the NL tables. Which is ODD, I feel Im a stronger limit player. I really like to protect my bankroll so right now with limited funds NL Im never as comfortable as I should be.With that said I had a couple good sessions at 1/2 NL. Doubling or tripling up my 100 buy in fairly quickly. Now going against what most people do. I simply played a while lnoger and left. I didnt want to jeopardize my roll, I took some hits in limit earlier and this was a nice win and needed it.Now with the vfp bonus as well. I have more than doubled my 500 buy in with about 20 table hours of play. Or about 6-7 real hours. So 500 bucks into that is a good day of work :)2/4 and 3/6 I was up a bunch, but went on a terrible run of beats. Not necessarily bad beats, but had some good hands beat by lesser hands... AA v AQ, AA v KK...type stuff. I dont recall seing anything overly bad as far as people playing. I think that most playing now are pretty good players. Chips are just being passed around, which is fine. I am skeptical they can keep this pay schedule up for long which has me concerned slightly. I dont think I have any referrals playing yet so cant say how that would go.Sitting with 1K in there now, going to try to get it up to 1500 by next week, then cash some out. Im not here to get rich but if I can collect 250 a week from this site on avg I will be a happy camper. Its just spare cash to me. So 12K a year is a good amount. Usually when I try to push it higher I get myself in big trouble.

Is the 1000% bonus and VFP on any kind of time limit? Meaning, I won't be able to deposit until next week, will that be too late?Also, first person to PM me, I will use as a referal as long as you sign up for a poker account at another site for me.

You are given 1 year to clear the bonus I believe.

[DwayneWayne]

how do you sign up for the VFP bonus?
