Default WSEX claims to go rake-free



Interesting.

2+2 has a lengthy thread about this as well. Consensus is that is legit, but won't last.

I want my site to make profit off of my rake so they do not have to get it elsewhere. I think alot of people have mentioned that some of the reason that a site like a Stars would not cheat is they are making SOOO much fucking money off the rake. I tend to agree and like it that way..

So, you think they're attracting players to rig the cards and steal money from them? You do realize that this is one THE TOP rated sportsbooks online right? They make millions every year. They have the top reputation for fairness and prompt cashouts.

So, millions isn't enough, they want billions. So, they're going to cheat players? Damn Sir, how's the kool aid taste?

They are offering rake free game to entice players to put a bankroll on their site. They know a lot of poker players are straight up gamblers, so they are hoping to drive people into their sportsbook.

A bunch of players deposit on the site. The site rakes every pot and pays your "rake back" every week/month? So, not only are they making interest off the bankrolls, but the rake too.

Oh yeah, then they get to credit it to your account. Fish love seeing "free" money put up once a week.

This could be huge for online poker. The people who blindly dismiss it are very foolish IMO.

I have tried it very few players
I deposited $20 the neteller min and am playing $10 nl
have run it to $45 and the site says I have earned $8.26 in rakeback and It will be returned to me on Apr 10th.

Its not a bad site pretty basic a notch above pacific just over 1000 plyr on line at a peak hours.They have a $50 freeroll every 6 hours with no requirements if you want to try it for free take it for what its worth. There is an article in card player but i dont know the link.But in summary the ceo stated its profitable with its sportsbook and due to there customers request they openend the pokeroom to keep their customer base happy.

Yeah I have my doubts as well, I'll be staying at Party Poker, where the fish are plentiful, and the rake is only 80% .

So what in this thread is supposed to make me not want to deposit?

And if you say "bots" I'll make fun of wrestling.
