mikednuts 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Reviews? Thoughts? Looking for a good 9 handed site that isn't full tilt. Link to post Share on other sites
Petoria 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 The guy who designed the interface for Absolute poker needs to be shot in the face. I played there, and didnt enjoy it at all. Games are decently easy, but it's not fun to play when you have to squint to see whether you have a club or a spade.Pokerstars is probably your best bet. Link to post Share on other sites

Games are decently easy, but it's not fun to play when you have to squint to see whether you have a club or a spade.Pokerstars is probably your best bet.Agreed. Great game selection (just like anywhere online), but terrible interface.I had problems with lag and with disconnections. I've never had a problem with any other sites in regards to lag or dc.On a different note, I'm not sure why you are looking for a 9-handed game as opposed to 10-handed. The play isn't any different.Edit: I had a phone call so I had to cut it short. But 10-handed is essentially the same as 9-handed. Most of the time, at least 1 person is sitting out on sites like Party Poker, so it's essentially 9-handed or less. My point is that I wouldn't let the desire to play 9-handed affect my decision to not play at a site like Party Poker. Game selection should trump whether a site is 9-handed or 10-handed.

SuicideKing86 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Personally I love it there, I like the interface. I dont like pokerstars much, the yellow gives me a headache; I cant say I like FullTilt much either. I dont see the problem with Absolute, people say there is software problems and other problems. I have yet to have a problem other than a server and chat freeze problem.I play there 90% of the time, and have been playing there for 6 months. Try it for play money, if you dont like the interface then dont play there. Got to decide for yourself. :-) Link to post Share on other sites

DDiabolical 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Every week I get a new deposit bonus from Absolute which seems to go up by about $200 every week but it's known to be pretty rockish so I've left it alone.Oh, and I really can't stand 9 handed, especially when every table has 2 people sitting out, stars is practically a shorthanded-only site for NL. Limit has 10-player tables... Link to post Share on other sites
GhostfaceKillah 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Absolute has the least skilled players of any site ive played on, Even full tilt. Take that for what its worth. Link to post Share on other sites
