Screenshots of tables at different sites please

With all the crap going on lately, people leaving PS/FT/UB etc to go to other sites, I thought I might try some new sites too. But, a key point for me to enjoy the site is the graphics of the table, as some sites look better than others. So, rather than downloading the site to look at the tables, can I ask that people post screenshots of the tables in this thread, for me, and others, to see what they look like?
Thanks in advance.

Carbon poker:

Pros:

• CC freeroll and money added buy-ins (currently wed and thu)
• pretty soft MTTs
• US friendly

Cons:

• Crappy hand history
• not many cash tables / games available
• SNGs fill slowly
• Ugly fonts

I hope I don't get in trouble for this, but here's a link to a site that rates poker sites. Under the yellow button on the right it says review. Click that and most of the reviews if the sites will show what the tables and lobby look like.

FYP
I am sure there is a way to stop them, I have disabled bubble chat many times but it doesn't work for me.

How would you compare it to other site (other than the big three of course)?

I have all chat disabled and it works for me, maybe its a bug?

I don't mind seeing chat, it is the obnoxious bubbles that block your cards (maybe I can't have it both ways). I have clicked the disable bubble chat numerous times, but it always comes back. I only play on carbon every other week for the CC games, maybe now that I have more time to spend there I can figure it out. I would like to stop those dumb cartoon things too...

thats pretty cool, thanks bud.

thinking opf getting a Carbon account(probably already have one, somewhere!)
do they have micro buy-in mtts, like $1 etc, how many do they get in those?

If you don't figure it out by the time we play this week, I'ma bug you to death with em!!!! lol

They have even 6c Mtts.

The Sixth Cent - 1 Rebuy (6c) 508 players
The Quarter Quicky - (30c) 144 players ($25 Gtd)
The Fast Fifty - (60c) 180 players
Dollar Dazzler - rebuys ($1.10) 189 players ($300 gtd)
$1 Turbo Freezout - ($1.10) 162 players
(# of players are from today results)

Winner Poker:

Pros:

i) Noobs galore.
ii) Daily "around the clock" freerolls (with about 200 or so entrants ).
iii) Nice graphics.

Cons:

i) Time limit is 30 seconds.
ii) ???



888 Poker:

Pros:

i) Good freerolls with about 700 entrants.
ii) Good graphics.

Cons:

i) Not the best graphics.
ii) ???

nice, I do like the cheap buy-in mtts, and the fields look pretty small. Thanks Logan!

eggh5uea, thanks for the info on winner, and as for 888, thats a nice site, I currently play there, some nice small mtts, and lots of fish at the micro ring tables

cool hand poker has been good to me in the past
I got a decent cash out and have held an ok balance

pros- easy players
-anonymous tables
-...

cons-european time zone
-very few tables- especially micro
-freerolls not as good as in past (win mostly tics now)

dont know how i totally feel about the site, hard to find good action/games at times but my time zone is way off...cashed 500$ no problem no deposit so...

Coolhand, that must be on the network 'microgaming' where Doyles used to be prior to joining up with Cake network (worst move ever imo... errr.. not as bad as their latest move though, lol).
PokerTime is also on the microgaming network. I actually like that software. I found there to be very little player traffic on the cash tables (~1yr. ago, last I played on there). I used to play on there ALOT when Doyles was on there & I liked it.

888Poker

Pros:
- micro cash tables are the softest I've ever experienced!!! I play on them for fun but it also covers my MTT losses, lol. I've made claims of running at 50bb/100 which some really doubted but honestly I think I run at a higher rate than that even (it's not uncommon to jump on there & play for an hour & be up 5+buyins.. I've been up 7buyins on one table in 5mins. on there before).

- LOTS of low buyin tournaments with decent structure (ie. 3,000chips & 10-12min. blinds, some even have 15min. blinds once you hit the $20buyin level). This site is geared towards the micro & low buyin MTT player as there aren't many buyins over $20 & there are many cheapies!!! MTT play is also soft.

Haven't tried the sng's so I can't offer an opinion although I did play a few when I first got onto 888Poker when they gave me the free $8 for signing up (yup that's right, you get a Free $8 just for signing up on there).

Cons:
- Tables don't size the same as ipoker, FTP & Stars so I find it just a little bit awkward trying to fit them in with the other games I'm playing.

- Bonuses are next to impossible to clear for the micro player

- I haven't seen anyother game on there aside from NLHE

- HandHistory feature kinda sucks because you can only play back the 'one' prior hand (all the rest are gone) so if you want to play it back you have to act fast & click the btn on that table

Here's a screenie of 9 2nl tables (there's often 15-20+ 2nl tables running... it's easy to get on a dozen at a time). At 6nl there are much fewer tables running (~3-4tables) & 10nl tables have ~7-10 running.

Also pics. of the 'notebox' or 'quick note'

One more screenshot for 888Poker. They now have 'webcam' tables on that site (only on the 6max tables) with sound & webcam. These tables are softer than the others & can actually be really funny.

Note the text in the chatbox at lower left of screenshot (players were asked in advance if they'd mind posing for a picture for a poker forum).

Titan Poker

I've written TONS about Titan on other parts of the forum so will be keeping it real brief here (do a thread search & you'll find stuff about all of the sites on there).

Pros:
- it's another site to play on
- software's not bad (I'd rate it better than Carbon (but not by much) but nowhere near as nice as FTP or Stars).
- micro cash tables are probably softer than FTP
- some of the low'ish' buyin MTT ($20-30) have 6,000chipstacks
- there are LOTS of super satellites to higher buyin MTT's (most are rebuys)
- tables size similiarly to FTP & Stars (so if you're multi-tabling a session of MTT's, Titan tables will fit in okay with the others),
- Cardschat has a monthly $1,000 freeroll if you sign up thru the CC link & make a deposit (well worth it!!)

Cons:
- SNG's are 10-plyr. tables (they don't have 9plyr.)
- there isn't alot of SNG traffic
- multi-table sng's are 30plyr. & prob the most you could get on would be 5 at a time & that's if you're playing both the $5's & $10's & during peak hrs. (later in the day where I live PacificTime, there are none of them running)
- they don't have an 'extra time' timer on the tables (except for final tables & highest buyins)
- player notebox is too small (you can write about 3lines of text & that's it)
- No Late reg. for MTT's
- HandHistory feature kinda sucks (note pic. of HandHistory below, although this is clearly a 'con', seeing how some donks will pay you off like this one did is definitely a 'pro'.. because he is definitely 'not a pro' )

Here's some screenshots (note in pics. the diff. colour codes on players for player notes & the space you have for making notes):

Bodog

Pet peeves with Bodog:
You can only play a maximum of 4 tables. The hand history feature sucks (although it's better than it used to be.. when it REALLY SUCKED!). Software used to cause multiple freeze-ups on my computer especially if running other poker site's software at the same time. They seem to have made a bunch of improvements as I rarely have any problems like that anymore (occassionally a slight lag.. but nothing like it once was.. it was BAD before.. REAL BAD!!).

good shit about Bodog:
Players are bad. Sng play is like how the books from 5yrs. ago described Sng play. The players are awful which is obviously good.
Cardschat holds two private tournaments on Bodog each week!!! (reason enough to deposit & download it imo).

I'll leave the rest for someone who plays on there more than I do.

Here's a screenie of two tables.

Carbon Poker

Well there's been lots mentioned already about Carbon so I thought I'd just post a screenshot. There are soooooo many different colour displays you can go with on Carbon that it'll make your head spin. Personally I go with something real simple - - something where the colour of the cards are going to really stand out against the background & a table top that will also make it really easy to see the bet amounts (hint C.C., I wish our priv. game tables had a background that was in contrast to the colour of the cards instead of matching them).
One thing I will add though > although Carbon Tournament lobby is pretty sparse, I'm guessing you'll start seeing more & more entrants in the tournaments & some bigger guarantees getting added on there (I've already noticed a few & prior to BlackFriday they were having fewer of them & smaller guarantees). On the tables I've started noticing the names of a bunch of US MTT regs. who have made the jump over to Carbon. This will inevitably change the play in those games (typically Carbon games are very soft... I've heard from many players who are winning players on Carbon but were never a winning player on FTP or Stars.... I'm guessing things will be changing on there soon).
Here's two tables on Carbon.

More screenshots anyone?
I will download 'DoylesRoom' again (I have money on there but I un-installed it from both puters.... site tilted me out too much). Will post screenie of the Doyles table but mostly for lolz (Doyle... how could you let them use your name on that site? RIP DoylesRoom).

Perhaps some screenshots of tournament lobbys, SNG lobbys, etc., for members thinking of trying out different poker sites, to give them a better idea of what games are running & when. (maybe some suggestions to for 'good games' to play on each site?.. ie... . for low buyin MTT > 888Poker has a 'DailyChallenge' series of MTTs, held each day at 15:35est, Monday's there are two at same time, $20+2 buyin, $10,000 guar. prizepools, 3,000chips, 10min blinds (maybe 12min.?). Lots of weak players in these!)

Maybe we could have this thread moved to another section of the forum? (poker rooms)

It seems alot of you have the "888 poker site "

Do any of you have the Sportsbook poker site ? And if so do you like it . I recently download that poker site .

But I may just go your way and try the 888 poker site , on a scale of 1 - 10 how would you rate that site . ZM

I agree. To me, it's about looks as well as the general "feel" of the place, if that makes any sense.

It's here now

PO you are truly a treasure! Thanks for all the work you're doing on this---very helpful.

Today I downloaded Carbon, and Lock as well because several CCers have raved about the money-making potential of the action there. As I posted elsewhere, unbeknownst to me Reefer morphed in Feltstars so I have that now too.

All of the Merge sites seem to have identical display options. One thing I can't find is the options for table appearance--where is it? And you said there are so many, maybe that's part of what I'm missing. I really like how you have yours set up--what do I do to set mine up to look like that?

PO, some great posts here, thankyou Sir!

I have to agree with the Dog - nice work PO...

I'll follow up with my view on 888. Pretty much agree with PO - the cash games do seem soft and I'm using 888 pretty much now to hone my cash game skills (which need quite a lot of honing tbh!). This is primarily because I've found the SNG games on 888 (SNG's are my main game) to be pretty poor - maybe I've been spoilt by FT but there didn't seem to be many games, those that were there tended to be 6 max rather than FR and I also thought the rake to quite high comparative to FT.

I got fortunate and enetered one of the $500 freeroll tournies for new depositors and took 2nd for $75 so that boosted by BR there. I've done other MTT's also and they run well with decent structures. The software is OK albeit the sounds are rather 'clunky' - I've also found using HEM there that you can't always get stats to be in the right position (i.e underneath the right player) if you're multi tabling. I've tried centering to the same position but it doesn't seem to work.

Great work from PO

Just to say that Titan is an iPoker skin, and all iPoker skins have same software. Betfred, William Hill, (both big British bookies) are on iPoker but do not accept US players AFAIK.

None of the ipoker sites do (no US on any of them).

thanks for the 'thanks'... .seems I get a fair bit of the opposite at times on the forum (they don't like me ). glad to know I could be of some help

I for one know that most of your posts are quality (or at least hilarious -> see 5K post).

does 888 poker allow US players??

Ahh thought you were posting Titan specifically because they accepted US players but didn't want to comment that I thought iPoker was non-US in case I was wrong

Once again outstanding work by Poker Orifice.

Im always look forwards to reading your posts.

Another problem I found with Titan is that if you are on other sites, it fails to bring the table to the top, when it is your turn to act.

some very nice and informative posts you gave Mr. PO.

excellent
