speedz99 145 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I'm not asking those who have 15 posts...you all know who I'm talking to. What do you guys think? I have a few random thoughts.1. The new home page is a pain to navigate through...but not a big deal overall2. The "bonus" is ridiculously hard to clear3. It would be cool as shit if a lot of us signed up and played together...we could make the "fcp 10 man table" thing really happen.I think #3 is the big one. I'd love to set up some low limit tables with a bunch of you some time in the near future where we could just mess around, make "lame" jokes, and get drunk in our respective homes.EDIT: and who's planning on signing up? I might do it...but only if enough regulars are doing it...I'm not signing up to play regularly, just to play with yous guys. *single tear* Link to post Share on other sites
insano 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I love it. I love what Daniel is doing for those of use that have been here for a while.The little kinks that all the freeloaders are complaining about will be fixed once it all gets up and going. Link to post Share on other sites
HangukMiguk 8 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I honestly think overall, this site has gone from awesome to...what's a word to describe it higher than awesome?I think it will take a little while to learn how to navigate the new site easily, I've been having the same problem. But I think it's a nice design. Link to post Share on other sites

pokerplayer24 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 1. The new home page is a pain to navigate through...but not a big deal overall  2. The "bonus" is ridiculously hard to clear  3. It would be cool as shit if a lot of us signed up and played together...we could make the "fcp 10 man table" thing really happen.  I agree that the site has become far more difficult to navigate but I guess they had to upgrade from the more bland design to a more professional looking structure.The bonus seems very difficult to clear and thus I don't think its a huge thing to take advantage of. Would like to note though that the 10% additional bonus on neteller seems pretty sweet if you could deposit often enough to use that as almost a rake back. I think it would be pretty cool to have a lot of the regulars get a table together once we all get acccounts but I really don't know how many regulars are going to switch over from Fulltilt, pp, and PS.

psujohn 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Not a lick of difference so far.I don't hang out on the home page so didn't even notice the change until I saw a thread about it. The forum is so far unchanged.The protege thing is cool but I have about as much change of winning that as I did of winning the party 3 billionth hand.I see almost no reason to start playing with people who study poker when I can take money from the "does a full house beat a flush" crowd at party.Overall it's all good but just doesn't affect me much. About the best part was mention of DN posting in strat again. Link to post Share on other sites

Pokerdad2222 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I like the look of the whole thing and i amstill navigating throught but I dont think it is too tough really. I think the poker site will be very popular for a while and depending on the quality of it will tell whether or not it will keep up that pace. Daniel is very popular and the site is very popular so I think it will take off pretty quick. Not a fan of the bonus either Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I see almost no reason to start playing with people who study poker when I can take money from the "does a full house beat a flush" crowd at party.That would be a concern except that it's a pokerroom skin with 15k on last night... Its not like you are playing with 5-7 FCP'ers at every single table you're at. Link to post Share on other sites
HangukMiguk 8 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I say just based on the readership of this site alone, that this PokerRoom will be a hit. Considering this is one of the top visited non-pokerroom sites out there, I'd say it will be even more popular now.Plus on top of that, this is one of the best poker forums out there, period. we're high up there with 2+2 and Neverwin (dare I even say that). So, I think it's got a huge chance of success. Link to post Share on other sites

Â It would be cool as shit if a lot of us signed up and played together...we could make the "fcp 10 man table" thing really happen.My list only has 1 concern on it1. It is no secret that Pokerroom has a horribly high rake. This can be a killer at the low limits. I'm assuming FCP will keep in line with that structure. Thats gonna be a real bitch... But I'm still signing up. Link to post Share on other sites
Marcstar 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Sorry I'm not high on the post count but I've been coming to this site for about 2 years. Anyway...I just deposited on the new poker site...it's not bad. I've never played on Poker Room or any of its skins..but the layout of the tables, speed, software, etc seem fine. I'll probably try out the the 20+2 10k guaranteed that they have coming up in an hour...that will give me a better feel for the poker site.When I signed up I didnt put in a code or anything but it obviously recognized my email and gave me the charter member bonus.As for this forum, DN blog, etc...I don't really see how it would change much. As with any new layout it takes some time to get used to but it seems fine with me. Link to post Share on other sites

dreamcaster 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 This poker site plays like crap.Where are the player notes?Hand Histories?Bright and easy to see commands?Why is my seat way in the corner and not at the front of the screen?I'm killing in my first session but the screen is hurting my eyes.

DDiabolical 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I'll probably sign up eventually for the Neg-O tourny, and it'd be fun to play a couple FCP ring games, but it is certainly not going to become a main site for me, the bonus is too mean and the rake takes a lot of money off the table.

justblaze 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 people have been trying to get me to play poker room for a while. I will eventually check it out, but not until the rakeback issue is settled. Link to post Share on other sites
Fullhouse7 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Site is easy to navigate---skin suks--hate it. Link to post Share on other sites
TML28 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I know you are looking for the 500 to 1K+ posters, but I will be signing up for sure. The rake is comparable to other sites and better then some.1$ Bonus for 3$ Rake.. How difficult is that? Link to post Share on other sites
Canuckickstan 2 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I played a little last night, after I figured out the transfer deal, and it's not too bad. The good thing will be the private tourneys and the spur of the moment nut-bar sessions. I hope it gives us the chance to play together more as the Neg-O's have been a lot of fun.

gamby20 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 whats the deal, us members with just a few posts arent good enough to play with the members with 1000's of posts Link to post Share on other sites
highsociety 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I am waiting on a lot of people's responses to the new site before I deposit, but soo far it seems like most people like the poker room. I think it is cool we now have a chance to play with other FCPers on a daily basis rather then just Wednesdays. Especially since I can't play the Wednesday Neagreanu Open's anymore because I have hockey every Wednesday night!!! :x Link to post Share on other sites
missIdaho 1 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I love it. I deposited last night but I haven't played there yet. I think it's going to be alot of fun to be able to play with fellow FCP members more often. Link to post Share on other sites
mk 11 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 i like it a lot. i'm playing right now.all the people who are saying they don't like the game play are like garth. they fear change. it takes exactly 5 minutes worth of getting used to.oh wait, no, it sucks, don't deposit so i have a better chance at winning the promo events. <evil cackle> Link to post Share on other sites
Don Giovanni 0 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 im gonna wait a little bit before i sign up. see whats going on with any rakeback and wait for things to settle down a bit. Link to post Share on other sites
