Yeah,
I thought I saw a link that quoted Everest as allowing US players. I am moving Pokerstars way down on my list because while it seems fairly easy to qualify in 12k person freerolls, the small cash tables and cheaper long distance money tournaments and especially 1.10 SNG's just seem to be a joke. I had qualified for 4 second round tickets in only one month by playing the super tightest tight possible. I didn't go all in once until the third hour....With a ton of "loose and lucky" players. After about 6 months of continuous play there I feel as if a possible trips/flush/straight/full house falls/once out of every two deals. Not to mention the mount of times that safe betting on top pair with high kickers loses to trips with absolutely no combo hand IE suited or straighted. Its almost like going to the dentist. Losing a significant amount of hands when ahead 90% or more on the turn. Sure this can happen a lot in HOLD'EM in general, but it seems amongst the various other places I have played in freerolls that poeple only trip on the monster about 1/4 the amount of times as on PS. I've seen lots of poeple complain about these things and laughed it off, but when its consistently happening for months in a row its not just the cards
Anyways thanks for the good reference I have enjoyed playing on CARBON poker more and more, and though it seems the freeroll structure is not great for those of us with full time day jobs, its very slick.
