I do not recommend this room, many fish but many bad beats, I find it interesting that in some rooms it seems the idea is to turn the money between the players and they stay with the rake, and the final winner is only the house, without say that the RNG is easily detectable, if anyone here plays when he become aware of a small locked in the distribution of cards, a hand that hand is dangerous because that is where it gets you down with a big bad bet, room layout is weak few rooms to practice good old poker tournaments virtually nonexistent, only one month to reach all the bonus, a bad room that does not value their customers.

Thats pretty sad to hear this from a player that actually plays there, if you read one of my most recent threads you saw that i wanted to take advantage of the gift bonus offer from bankrollmob there...
Not sure if i'll reconsider after i read this thread of yours since i only play cash games but thanks for your personal impressions...
It's true that the lowest limits for cash games(plo and nlhe), and 6max or sh is 0.01/0.02 cents

Greetings to Porkoloco, and welcome to Bank Roll Mob. Sorry to hear you've had a negative experience so far. Don't worry it was just bad luck. Browse around learn some and hit the tables refreshed.
Macubass: Don't let it discourage you. I completed the gift offer there 4 months ago and detected no funny business. It's the iPoker network after all.

Don't worry, i still want to get that gift offer, but it's always good to hear more opinions before taking the decision of depositing money on a poker platform
Since they have 6 max plo table at 0.01/0.02 cents stakes i'll play those since the rake is pretty high plus pot limit omaha it's my A game
There are just as many bad beats as on the other rooms. I don't know about the support, but iPoker is now 2nd when it comes to the amount of players (last time I checked Party was only like 200-300 behind) and it's good network. Even if I don't like it (because I don't), it's still good. You can't say that something is bad only because you have bad feelings about it.

Bad beats are on all online poker networks, well it's true that on some there are more than regular but this is not a serious reason not to play there....
In fact i already have an account on titan poker and there i built a very solid bankroll just out od 15 dollars deposited
It's true that you can't get the first deposit bonus on mansion if you already have an account on titan poker

Ipoker is fine, I like most of them but only won money on 2 and the best was the one never mentioned but the name is a country that behings with an H,, and that was good but I withdrew my reasonable winings and now play on a UK Ipoker site mainly but the best am doing is break even, but we live in hope,

Since we are talking about Mansion thought to mention that the inactivity fee (which most of the rooms charge after some time) its the highest i know so far. 5% of your money in with min 15 US$

Greeting Inhale, looks like you've been with us for a long tie but not so active on the forum, did this thread suddenly spark your interest.
Like everyone else said iPoker like other network pool players from all their skins (ie. Party, William Hill, Mansion, Titan are all the same program and players with only slightly different promotions).
