Agree to 100%! Just because a game is tight it dosenīt say anything about the ability of the players. I have seen a lot of tight/weak players there. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: shebang at August 15, 2005, 12:13 pm | | Topic: Prima games tighter? Forum: Bonus Whores | Hmmm, yes i recalled too someone trying to register purportedly from the US outlying islands. Anyway, since other people will now notice this attractive Expekt bonus i searched for Expekt threads. You really should not bother when residing in the US. If you find a scheme to register anyway, they not only may deny your bonus but also your winnings and request all sorts of ID just to get your deposit back. Here's the link to one of those Expekt threads.

Edit: just sent Expekt a little email wondering whether they are now accepting US players. I got a response back from them very quickly: for legal reasons they still do not allow US players. | | Static Link |

As I recall those players had theit accounts frozen and initial deposits refunded. didn't someone register as being from the US outlying islands and territories?

It is true. Although when the software said I'd played around 120 raked hands, support told me I had played only 95 (or something). I played another 10 or 15, and emailed them again and the bonus is mine.

You're right, they don't accept players from the US (or Malta.) | | Static Link |

I haven't played at Expekt yet. When i read this comment i went to their web site.

Could you please confirm this? It almost seems to be too good to be true and i don't want to get into a crazy poker type situation. Expekt is one of very few prima's that i haven't played yet.

Yes, i could do a search on finding the comments on e... | | Read Entire Entry |

I've noticed that the game varies a lot more than some other rooms. If there are 3 tables at 0.5/1, 2 will be tight and tough and one will be loose and wild. It also seems to vary more than Party depending on time of day. Must be the crazy euros. | | Static Link |
