Cake Poker... "These Guys are Good"

[Reel Deal]

Guys, you seriously need get on this site... I can't lose there. It's like the pre-UIGEA days.

Wish PokerTracker worked at Cake so I could show you a graph... I've almost tripled my initial deposit and really haven't even played that many hands there.

Get on it peeps.

I'm on my way... just waiting for money.

BTW, I did find out that if you get a transfer from someone there to get you started, you can still be eligible for the first deposit bonus when you do deposit.

So maybe RD will trade everyone Cake for Stars/Tilt money or something.

OK OK....so to be clear...the player to player still qualifies for the first deposit bonus at Cake as well as the 33% rakeback...I would prefer transferring someone $$ on FT and getting Cake money in return...the deposit bonus is 100% up to $500...is that correct?

[Talking Poker]

Absolutely not - A transfer is a transfer, not a deposit.

What I was saying is that if you get a transfer from someone now, you will still be able to deposit and qualify for the first deposit bonus when you deposit later.

In other words, in theory, you could:
-Get a transfer from someone.
-Play for a while and cash out (to epassporte?).
-Redeposit and qualify for the bonus.

And you'll get the 33% rakeback regardless.

Has anyone checked out the bounty tournaments that they run?
I just played my first one and am $57 richer because of it. Basically, on a $10 tourney they place a $5 bounty on each player's head, you collect that when you knock them out and the rest is put into the prize pool. I found the play to be pretty poor because most of the players were calling down with almost anything in an attempt to cash in on those bounties.
