It looks like Card Player found a way to get around the US poker "ban"

It's a subscription service where you pay a monthly fee for "points", and
you then enter tourneys with those points. Sounds a little bit odd, but I
was considering giving it a try.

Anyone have anything to say about it? Anyone tried it?

If not, I may sign up for a few months and give a trip report on it.

I tried the "free trial" which they charged me for anyway, I thought
the sight sucked!!! The software is horrible, the play is horrible,
the service is horrible, everything about it was Painful. Getting
into a good game takes forever because their are not enough players,
but even if their were, the site SUCKS!!!!

Agreed. I don't get how they can see good card room software out there, and
produce this POS instead of just copying the features of better software.

The MTTs for the actual money are pretty long, and there's no option for
trying to cash with a turbo or at least something shorter than a six-hour
tourney. And all THE, of course. No O8 at all, and the rare Omaha Hi MTT is
just to get more "points".

I just missed the cutoff for cancelling the trial, so I'm stuck for the
charge this month. :-P It's simply not worth it, since playing with real
money gives you a better return on investment. If I could, say, pay for
points and then cancel while living on the points, that might make it
worthwhile. Oh well.
