    intertops poker

    As part of my pro requirement , i have chosen the intertops link to renew my pro status.
    So far so good, however, the traffic is very very low, but the players are really bad, and i mean, really bad.
    But this thread is not about the quality of players the site has, but more about of the quality of the site; if any of the regulars here, had play or play there please share your experience .
    So far my experience is as follows:
    Software is so so.
    Players : a lot of fish.
    Customer support: ok , however i play for 2 weeks and they never activated my bonus deposit because some internal " human error " and the same to the rake back, that still inactive, till someone approve it, but this is the 3 rd week and nothing. i asked them if they can do it retroactive to the time of the deposit, but it was decline, although was their mistake.
    The bad news is that they charge 50 dollars to issue a cheque, and for canadians , is the only way to get some of our money.

    I think that SBR forum, should provide some sport cash from the sponsors that we choose for renewal.

    intertops players bad??? maybe that's how i won my WSOP Main Event seat then on their site. and i thought i was just good.

    that was back in 2005 though so everything has changed. they were still using the party poker skin back then. you could play in cash games with other party poker players but intertops had some of their own rooms and their own tournaments. the players were pretty bad and i did pretty well there. however, once they banned US players, i was out of luck.

    back then they also ran some good promos too. you were awarded points for your weekly cash game play. the top 50 or so would then get cash or a sportsbook freeplay. i was usually in the top 10 (was single back then) and would collect between $100-$500. they also had decent bonuses too.

    one thing that did piss me off about the site was they sent my a thing in the mail for $100 freeplay in the casino. it didn't have any rules on the paperwork i received other than a 10X rollover requirement. i sat down at the BJ table and started with $10 bets, before you know it i was at $25 then $50 and ran it up to $1500. i met the rollover and so tried to cash it over to the poker site. i was getting problems and so i called them up. they told me it was only good with slots and therefore seized and cancelled my $1500 in the casino. so you may want to confirm any "specials" that you get.

    wish i had more to tell you but it's been at least 6-7 years since i played there. if the play is the same, any player with a decent skill set should be able to hold their own and make money at the site.

    i must tell you something that happened.
    I deposited $ 100 and within hours i lost 88 , so i quit, because it was in my opinion , another shady site.
    I retuourned a week later to give it a try with the 11 left and within minutes i had a 60 profit, so my br was not looking so bad.
    I still played a few more days and today i had a good session in the afternoon, having about 230 in the acc, but, in the evening i took a big loss because i was playing above the br limit. then i played a 7 bucks tournament , that pays top 4, and i was able to take it down.
    only 24 player, and some rebus along the way, i only re buy once so my total investment was 14 dollars, but the amount of bad play i saw makes SBR players looks like the top ones of poker stars or full tilt.

    so far so good in the poker department, mostly PLO ,
    I ll let you know when is payback time what happens, but , i can tell you that even paying the 50 , there is not problem, because of the other perks they have.

    I'm sorry M Pasc, I never heard about this. I'm sure it's been discussed on this site. How did the WSOP main event go for you? Give me a link if you don't wanna describe it again lol.
