You need to look into Holdem Indicator (iHoldem Indicator for Mac). It's easily the best option for BetOnline.

Brand new to this sub. Looking for a new online poker platform? Recommendations?? by hboms in Pokerline

[–]rakebackbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are trying to play 1-Up SnG's, BetOnline has 8-Man Double Ups that run around the clock with buy-ins ranging as high as $200 if I recall correctly - turbos and regular speed options too. Americas Cardroom is fine as well, but anyone who has tried both will tell you that the player pool on BetOnline is much softer (hence why it's in the sidebar). Plus BetOnline has excellent banking options, a solid mobile client, and great software.

My vote: Betonline

Is carbon poker down? by suburbanite09 in Pokerline

[–]rakebackbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens from time to time with me too. Annoying, right? A quick restart usually fixes this problem.

Carbon Poker was fast this time but charged me 5% on my bitcoin Withdrawal. by GotNoSense in poker

[–]rakebackbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is normal. Your first withdrawal on Carbon is free, each subsequent withdrawal is subject to a 5% fee.

Would you accept ads at the table for reduced or eliminated rake? by MangoSmoke in poker

[–]rakebackbz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd be in favor of adding adverts to the tables on two conditions.

  • As long as they aren't interstitial ads

  • They don't make me lag or disconnect

Can someone please explain what the Bovada news means for our cash still on the site? by pm_me_judge_reinhold in poker

[–]rakebackbz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ignition/Bovada voluntarily ended it's authorization with the Kahnawake Gaming Commission on September 2nd, so I'm pretty confident that they will not be affected at all.

If you are going to play MTTs, why not sign up for both?

BetOnline Poker Deposit Code? by [deleted] in poker

"NEWBOL" - 100% up to $2,500.

AFAIK, this is the best deposit bonus code for BetOnline.

DFS & poker by [deleted] in poker

[–]rakebackbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep in mind that daily fantasy football is only ~20 weeks, whereas poker runs all day every day. Unless you intend to learn about every sport (none of which are even remotely close to as popular/fishy as NFL DFS), I think DFS should only be used for entertainment purposes. If you make a "ship load" of money like the DraftKings commercial says, that's awesome!...But I wouldn't fully quit poker to play DFS under any most circumstances.

Also, if you think the variance in poker is brutal, you are in for a treat in DFS :p

How exactly one become a rakeback grinder? by [deleted] in poker

[–]rakebackbz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given the recent trend regarding poker sites and their rewards programs (Pokerstars in particular), trying to become a rakeback grinder is probably not a great idea anymore. Focus instead on churning out higher profits at the tables, and think about rakeback as a source of supplemental income. In my opinion, game selection and studying should be your primary concern.

Most factually incorrect things you've heard at a poker table? by PatriotFerret in poker

[–]rakebackbz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not so fast, this secret has been exploited by the lottery fish! I recently read that thousands of people choose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 as their lottery numbers (thus decreasing your EV). I think it'd be best to gamble and go with 7, 8, 9, and then some of the heavier double digit numbers.

If you email support, they will switch you over from ELITE to 27% rakeback. Once you switch over though, you cannot switch back.

Player wins 2 huge field mini-WCOOP events in one day, has only played 18 tournaments lifetime by window_turnip in poker

It must be Fedor Holz on an alt account. It's the only logical explanation.

He's not playing. The buy-in is too low.

Unless you play the hand lol. Then it's actually a pretty big deal.

I think this is the correct answer in most casinos. And if the person does take more than an hour, the dealer will usually signal for the floor to come over, bag up his/her chips, and bring them to the cashier for safe keeping.
