Check out the Online Super Series @ ACR. Starts this Sunday. Big gtds. Also they're supposed to have some big software change soon that should increase the traffic. At least that's what I'm waiting for

ACR is trash. The software is one of the worst I have seen.

its always best to do a personal review of a new site before you send funds to insure it fits your liking...some sites dont offer many low stakes games which could be a turn off to new and upcoming players...

I got into a dollar rebuy with a 2 dollar 10k chip add on....what a wild game ....well 10 dollars later I won it for the ticket to Saturday nights $63 dollar (omg rebuy) OSS II ..top 100 get a ticket to the next teir. woohoooo
I agree, they, ACR doesn't have enuf micro games. and ive only seen one bounty game and I think it was 7 dollars.

Try bovada idk if its on revolution but i like the tourneys there,specially the low buy-ins to guaranteed tourneys,only cons are the anon tables,but im getting used to it. good luck

Bovada imho is the best choice for US players, i play on Bovada and BCP but losing interest in BCP, since the site moved from Merge to WPN something is fishy.

Nice gl woohoo! I wouldn't worry too much about the "rebuy". Technically it's just a re-entry mtt w/o an add on. That's how they run all their gtds from what I've seen.

TID! Well top 100 at least;)

Looks to me that ACR doesn't look or even ask the preference of players.I'm sure their cut from micro(non-sat) games would be more than the few players at the higher level would pay for fees.My opinion.I wouldn't mind seeing come in with a .25 rebuy MTT that is non sat.Again,I'm sure I'm not the only one that have mentioned this to them.No response was their response.

i hear ya BUT. i have been playing there a while and checking out all there promos. their software is easily the best online for usa players .they are giving great rakeback and all in all they are trying really hard to get a player base. im thinking even if you only visit and play from time to time they will eventually be the best online site for usa players as their traffic grows. personally while merge is fun they use that old programmed for action software that in my opinion is for the birds.ACR will be the best if they can get going ,ust cant give up on em.

Really? :icon_scra I think they openly admit their software is outdated and needs to be upgraded.

Nvm, that explains it.

How hard is it to simply have a 3-11 dollar superstacked tournament 2-3 times a evening during peak hours...I just do not get it???

Honestly they lose cash play from me bc im not on there too much given there are no donkament selections I like.

2-3 tournaments a day....its cannot be that hard to get done!!!

Do a superstacked at 6:30-7PM EST and a deep stacked at 8.30 ...maybe a second chance at 10PM est that isnt deep....

All at 5.50 or 11 bucks...HOW HARD??

I personally like the software for ACR, but not a big fan of the 1 and 2 hour rebuy tourneys...seems like a VERY long time to be able to get into a tourney, and those that buy in so late can't have much of a chance to win. Also would like to see more micro tourneys, and not too sure about playing micro cash games...the rake sometimes seems to be a bit on the high end.

I like the in game software, but you cannot honestly say that the navigation/hand history portions are by far the worst in online poker....

Ive never been on SWC though..lol.

From what I can see there it's sng's cash games and satellites and a few tournaments that pay off at the end of the rainbow but to me, the long buy in periods coupled with the rebuys make no sense. The amount of times one would have to play a satellite to actually win a ticket plus the rebuys and add on could easily cost as much as the cost of the buy in for the actual tournament. Seems like trying to dig myself out of a hole in the sand. It's almost like playing at Club WPT or pureplay or one of the subscription sites. I much rather prefer Carbon (merge) to ACR... anytime, any day.. There are alot of different structures and buy ins ranging from micro to large going on almost 24 hours a day. And I can't stand the way the list of tournaments keeps changing while you try to scroll through to search for a game. About the only halfway decent micro tournaments they have are the sng's and then you have to wait forever for one to fill up if it's not the busiest time of day....though, I will admit, I don't play cash tables much so I can't say as far as that goes...

It's too bad Carbon doesn't have a debit card like ACR.

All in all, at this point, I beg to differ about ACR being the best for US players....though that is subject to change, but unlikely.

If you are a low/micro MTT player...you will not like ACR/BCP right now, as they are in the process of restructuring their tourney schedule and until then, you are all right, there is a shit selection.

However, I have deposited and withdrawn from pretty much every US allowed site in the past year and will stand by my opinion that the Winning network is absolutely on the rise. They have the best cashout options, the quickest even...and their customer support is hands down the best in the business. The software will get updated, and the tournament shedules, and then they will be the best network without argument. Until then, I'm biting the bullet and putting up with the software because I trust the network, and I would recommend you all do the same.

Ya these oss tournys are good, they gave me 5 bucks to play with too which is pretty cool. I trust acr more than the other american sites but the tourny rebuy for hours is rediculous encourages all the morons to shove shove shove .Plus they should have more micro buy ins for us cheap skates.
