iPoker has just completed the planned splitting up of its network into two separate player pools and the details about how the poker rooms and games will be split across the two new networks are: Player pool 1 Titan Poker Poker770 bet365 Paddy Power This pool will consist of the bigger operators who have managed to maintain the required network criteria. You can expect much larger traffic and more recreational players in this player pool.
Player pool 2 Betfred Mansion Poker This pool will mainly consist of smaller operators who have been unable to maintain the network criteria for player pool 1. You can expect lower traffic and more high volume winning players in this player pool.

It may sound like an interesting move but frankly i do not understand it at all...
I think there are some internal economical aspects behind this decision, to an outside viewer such a move in times like that really doesn't make too much sense

i think this is a clear sign that ipoker is operated by people who have no idea about poker- really stupid move which can easily cost them so much that they gonna end up in bankruptcy. at least second player pool looks absolutely doomed- winning players will not play against winning players, so they will go back to playing against fish- maybe with another account or so...

I used to have accounts with all the Ipoker sites., but the problem we have here in canada, is when you make a withdrawal, when you receive a check from them, the check's are no good here, they don't have tracking numbers like canadian check's do. then i had to contact support, send the check back, get a bunch of numbers from my bank and send it to them so the could wire me the money, it was just so much hassle i just gave up, and deleled all the accounts. but for any body else playing there good luck
