Hmm, they're among very few who require you to enter their VP level and pay mandatory monthly fee to become eligible to play freerolls and real money games... I believe such system if done right cuts off absolute majority of freeloaders (who also happen to be least qualified players on average, since without strict mental discipline your learning poker on freerolls and free apps conditions you to be much more risky under absolutely unjustified circumstances, i.e. senseless reraises, bluffing with junk) and attracts a lot good, strong players, against whom it's difficult to compete...
I'm pretty advanced in terms of philosophy, strategy, game theory of video games in general, but never played poker... I started just a couple of weeks ago, and played about 10 free tourneys on ClubWPT... Each had a few dozens participants, with a few more than 100... I made the final table three times... Much of my strategy was to let the jerks who risk too much kill themselves and to take maximum advantage of my strong hands by correct, systematic reraising to lure others throw in the pot all the way, rather than scaring them off by all-ins... However tempting, I often folded moderate, even good hands, not letting hopes of luck to be my judge... And I bluffed with junk maybe 2-3 times - in total!!!
I believe you got my point:nurse:When someone in mostly fee-free land make themselves highly conspicuous and suspicious by charging monthly fee, they at once come under radar and become targets of various regulators and watchdogs... One must be out of mind to have the system and algorithm rigged substantially in such conditions - and I don't believe it's the case... What's true is that you won't get a cash prize there without consistent adherence to own mental discipline - and it's okay with me and other strong players! Wanna bluff - play chess and checkers
