Ongame – Poker Idol

I’ve been trying out the Ongame network through Poker Idol. Solid deposit bonus, good rakeback, 5 seat games, new software, should be good.

But its not. I’m cashing out because every short session ends with the tables greying out and ‘not responding’. Its obviously impossible to play effectively with that happening, but even more so because getting on (or back on to…)tables is harder than average due to no wait list function.

They somehow forgot to make the software beep when its your turn, and with no time-bank the fact that the 2nd-warning does beep isn’t too much consolation. I have always been baffled by the lengths that poker software developers seem to go to in preventing things working well and its the usual story here.

At least I ran well – spun my $700 deposit up to $2700, but couldn’t play enough to even activate the 1st $300 stage of deposit bonus.

So now I guess I’m deciding between Ipoker, giving Microgaming’s anonymous tables a shot, or trying PLO again anywhere.
