So what do you guys who play at pkr.com think about the "second release" version 2.0?
I was a huge pkr fan before and I still am, but IMO the skin now looks like I poker version, witch I hate lol.
Usually when I came from work and had some time to myself I always checked to pkr to play some cashgames, but today I dont have that feeling anymore. Ofcourse it takes time, and I like that you can now multitable up to 8 tables and switch between the tables, but the overall look is now the same as any other pokerroom.
Am little dissapointed, but Im sure the time goes by it becomes more comfortable and maybe even effective than it was before.
So those who play there, share your opinion about the "NEW LOOK". Did it "MADE YOU LOOK"
Posted by Pkr_night: I love it... Because this look makes multitabling much easier, while with the old one multitabling system was way too bad
yeah was just chicking up on it. And it seems like it will be easier to play the two tables that I normally does. Seems like an okay change, although i haven't tried it much so far.

Been waiting for this, will give it a go at the weekend, from what iv seen it looks good, hopefully things will run a little faster, but I read the makers were already talking aout rolling it back if the regs moan.

I never played on the site, but was looking forward to trying it sometime in the future,. PKR always had a lot of fans because of the "gaming" 3-D look, as I understood it.
Does this mean they have abandoned that concept? I´ll have a look on their site.
Really looking forward to this but big big big faillure, allready contacted my manager i am leaving after i cleared my reload next month. I hope many regs do the same so PKR gets really the point in wot 90% of all PKR players feels atm.
Thing wot i hate the most: It wasnt tested by any regs. Now all regs complaining this PKR 2.0 is disguisted and NOT playable.

Yeh - it's getting a lot of hate on the PKR forums.
I don't think it's any where near as bad as some making out. The problem is, as doomdy points out, it wasn't bug tested properly. It's pretty offensive that they released something as buggy as it is.
I'm hoping they don't revert to the old look, well, not permanently anyway. But I think they really need to fix this up big time. Stupid thing is, the simple fix everyones been asking for, auto-reload for cash tables, wasn't even added and thats such an easy thing. Instead they do a bunch of s**t that doesnt work. Tiled multi-tabling would be great and PKR has been needing this, but it just doesnt work on so many levels and becomes pretty unplayable after 4 tables.

guys from PKR are just ridiculous. First take money from withdraw and make his software with a lot of bugs! Thats why i will never put my money there! There are a lot of great poker rooms and that 3D mode arent very impressive

+1 Domdy. - this is the opinion I wanted to hear. I dont like it either and I also contacted with a support manager the night I logged in there and discovered its awul what they have done and she told me that its not complete and they might change it back.
atm Ive got the same feelings as you do. I also cleared my 2daybonus and havent played now 2 days there. Insted played yesterday in pstars because I dont have the feeling anymore what I used to have playing in pkr. Disgusting skin and image.
I think the only good thing they did was multitabling 8 tables (witch does NOT WORK PROPERLY), but they could of done it also without changeing the site compleately.

Well as for me stuill untested but the complaints I hear are due to bad graphics and slow games. Now the slowness will speed up, and I dont give a "V" about graphics, I look for the players and HPH. NOw PKR has the ability to multi im sure ill be milking some NL25 x 9 as its slow, if all speeds up drop to 6. And if all the Regs leave then for me, I want the fish... However, as said before they were talking about rolling it back before releasing, I get the feeling you guys there are guinne pigs, a roll back will come, canges to 2.0 and a new release, main objective more tables. Dont be to harsh on them, change is good its how we move forward, PKR would be great if it(old version) was fast with min 9 table multi.

I requested a big cashout at PKR cos i am afraid later this week and begin next week many regulars requesting big cashouts and i dont want troubles PKR getting cash flow problems. I am afraid PKR turning into a big horrorshow if this 2.0 stays on. Now as we speaking: No NL600 cashtables and only 6 NL400 tables shocking.....

Is what I already said and I assume we all think the same.
Now what I dont get is, instead of adding the things that players wanted like auto rebuy in cash, from where they took the tourney finder, country flags, very annoying colored screen, smile faces and all that other extra added stuff that Ipoker and other sites have? Who the fk requested those things
I havent looked there since day before yesterday, but I can imagine what mess it brings up when tables are missing and short like Doomdy says.

I just tried it, and I can't say I liked it. PKR has lost some of that "special" feeling that made me take a small reloadbonus every now and they, just to play nights when I'm a bit drunk.
Having said that, I am usually a conservative guy, always thinking the upgrades are crap, so maybe I will learn to like it in time, nut it doesn't feel that way at the moment...

I forced myself today to log back in to pkr and play a little. Finished masters stage 3 and got a 2nd ticket to 100k gdt PKR Masters Yay . Another ticket made from 1000 pkr points and thru 4 levels lol. But well worth it. Im gonna play it on 4th Septhember. There is one in 2 days also on 7th August, but my lady has a borthday on 8th of Aug, so no way Im going to play it in 2 days lol.
for me, I want the fish...
