Sounds like the perfect description of heaven for cheaters. I'll never understand why people on such garbage sites.

Cheers!!!

They are a groundbreaking bad site, one of the very worst on the market. But they seem to be very popular in Brazil yes.

Shrugs it's all pretty soft at the stakes the majority play....unless one is playing at Pokerstars which some decent competition above 2nl. Still nothing that a 15+ year old basic TAG strategy can't handle and make a profit playing. Majority just suck at doing the 5-6 things that really matter at a decent level.

Cheers!!!

yes micro stakes are soft everywhere but if we talk midstakes+ the site is definitely softer than others. but you have to live with the downsides that are on an anonymous site (which u already correctly listed) and a terrible software.

Well I am bribable. I cost a lot. When it comes to my money only trust, security and good software matter. No good making the money if you can't 110% trust that you can get it off the site or aren't being cheated outta of it.

And I also don't believe it's really that soft unless you're only comparing it only to Pokerstars. I mean only 10% of total poker players are winning players long term......if there was any site that soft that 10% would be higher. And their player/site volume is so low.....the math just ain't mathing.

Talking about a soft site WTP Global MTT's are plenty soft so far. And at least it's a half decent site compared to this trash site we're talking about in this thread.

Cheers!!!

agree on the first paragraph.

if u believe what some 2+2 regs say then yes its supposed to be super soft and they even stay despite the terrible software and all the problems because of that. my personal experience is only coming from micro games but i definitely saw a difference there compared to stars and also some other rather reg infested sites. they are or lets say were part of a network which inlcuded 3 sites in total so u probably only saw part of the total player base if u looked that up.

wpt global is one of the absolute worst site i have ever played on with a super heavy playmobil like software and almost no options to adjust the site. yes they are soft and yes when u begin to play there its seems decent at first glance but longterm i could never ever imagine really grinding there.

if i would have to choose between those two i would go with bodog. as sad as it sounds. just my opinion.

You think so? I was with them 20 years and more ago. I deposited and withdrew by Neteller - something I no longer use.

One day, I received a rude e-mail out of the blue telling me my account had been suspended and I must provide documents to prove my identity.

I ended up sending them a solicitors letter. And several hundred page junk faxes until they refunded me all my money. Screw Bodog.

Will admit I'm not a fan of WPT cash games and yeah the software lacks options other sites like Pokerstars and GG have. Yeah no idea about long term I likely won't be staying long term just really wanted to give it a try for the first time other then CC freerolls which I don't get too make that many of. So far in the 2 MTT's I've played it's a lot limping and calling stations which makes it really easy to make some chips and money. Pokerstars you gotta work a bit harder to get them to put the money/chips in the middle.

Cheers!!!
