So, do you think Real Deal Poker will have 1000 players in less than a year?

It's no secret that Real Deal poker has very few players these days. I have experienced it and many of you probably have...
What amazes me is the thought of what is going on there when NOBODY is in the room... I remember I've seen an old episode of the Twilight Zone saying that when things are not under human observation they vanish and stop existing, until some human eye is about to focus on them, so they return to being whatever they were before...
So what's the story with RDP? any thoughts? has sci-fi met its match with this site or not??????
******************* * P.S.: I was more than happy when I heard that finally this site would start working and I was eager to play there... just can't imagine what could go so wrong and totally fail...

a very good thought indeed my friend... but unfortunately there are nowhere to be found! I think RDP people saw that some players would come up with this idea and stopped making Guaranteed $ tourneys there... at least I can't find any... as a matter of fact there are NO real tourneys there, just camouflaged SitnGos that have a fee, under the Tourneys tab...
hey, did I hear a door slamming behind me?? ... WAIT FOR MEEEEEEEE... DON'T LEAVE ME HERE ALOOOOOONE.......

I never have seen more than 60 players on real deal poker. But is at the begining. I think they never will have more than 1000. And never they will be like Pokerstars and fulltilt

I have never actually understood how a new site starts up. Since there are no players from the beginning, noone want's to/can play there. All the existing sites were created in the Big Bang, and had like dinosaurs and strange fish and stuff playing on them before we got there.
I bet a T-Rex plays Omaha and is quite aggresive preflop...
No, the only way it can happen is that they give much more important bonuses and indeed much more interesting tournaments... I mean they have to accept to spend big money to get they players joining them...

I think they did fundamental mistake, many new poker rooms, they kind of "hire" new players 500 players to play to make sure there is some action, they get little % of there profit if there is any.
That so people feel the action, and get to trust it, I think by having so few players as they have now they are actually loosing credibility and people will be afraid of putting a lot of money on there account.

^Yes, this +1. This site needs to hire props immediately if they wish to attract new players to deposit.... i mean only a monkey high on crack would move their roll onto a site that has had a max of 60 players online!

think they will soon close they poker room becouse its just waisting time and money think they must start with huge promo and big bonuses for all the countrys and invite more poker players and also have the more progresive tourney ...
I always thought they they would accept americans because of the Holyfield Promo...but now i don't get it...
have read that many poker regs and winning players are makin jokes about this site and their shuffle machine cuz the RDP shills always stated that other RNG's are "rigged" lol
a very good thought indeed my friend... but unfortunately there are nowhere to be found!
