I didn't know that Natural8 is a poker room that can offer a lot of this value tournaments but it seems to be on a good road. It's nice to know that we can play in other places where we can meet weak players where we lift the stack and win some money.

I don´t remember if I play there in some moment. In the past I tried in a lot of poker´s room, looking for the site with more freerolls. So, until find 888poker and be tired with the permanent moving on, maybe I played there. I´m little confuse because I registered to an asian poker´s room, tracked to my account of Bankroll Mob. But I think that then change his name to GGpoker

I remember you posted a comment (or more) about Natural8 and that means you played here. I can't play here because of the restrictions, but you can try, to see if have any money there for some satellites. Tournaments are acceptable but you have to qualify.

No, I was checking it and didn´t found anything of my participation there. I don´t remember what was the name of the asian poker´s room that Bankroll Mob was pomoting, and I make a tracked account. It then became in GGpoker, that haven´t any more freerolls and I leave to play there. I don´t know if it can be generalized, but it seems that asian players have a lot of fishes!

You don't like it there you won't play, because i don't know if this poker room has the right games for you, my friend. I can't see how it is, but maybe in the future i will have the opportunity to play there. It's good to have good rooms and weak players.

You are playing there antonis321? Is the same software that have too many toons and silly emoticons? But, reading that you write I don´t think that a buy-in of $ 6 for a satellites is a really low level. Or your bankroll is really too big than mine! It seems that this poker´s room is not for me. I keep with my loved 888poker!

Maragatero, my friend, i haven't met you in 888poker games, but know that some rooms have free games that can increase your chances to making money. Sometimes can play and win something good, then you play a $ 1 & 10 cents tournament and there you can win 40, 50 or more. Gl.

Yes it´s true, we don´t meet in the 888poker´s room..why? Do you play the freerolls? I think that I saw to you in a table for a few moments (Vlad...something, of Romania) but somebody go all-in and I couldn't write to you, then the table changes. I´m thinking in start a new way of my study. I always avoid cash games, because I don´t feel comfortable there. But I´m thinking that it´s capital to my improvement!

I play a lot of freerolls and our only major problem is the time zone, i think. This year i didn't have too many tournaments with real money because i was upset on 888 ( i explained in a few threads here )... My name is VLAD888TEPES but i am a player with little results. What matters most is to finding adequate rooms and make money. I would also try Natural 8 but it is restricted to me.

But the time zone have not incidence in the freeroll tourney, isn´t it? You can be playing a tourney of $200 freeroll at 14 hs PM, and I might be playing the same tournament at 20hs PM or 11 AM, but the tourney is the same and we have to meet there. And about your upset, you have to be smart and don´t leave your own interest. You haven´t to let win money there!

I don't know what sleep schedule you have, but to be honest i play a lot of freerolls and it's very curious that we only met very rarely. When i see you there i will greet you. We have to get to the same table once but we will probably be moved by the software quickly.

5 more days for this series to end , players still have the opportunity to play some events , and win some dollars for a great payday , or play some satellites to win their seat as cheap as possible . I believe Natural8 is the greatest poker room of GG network ,which last months started becoming larger and larger , with pro embassadors supporting it , some series of tournaments with good guarantees , etc .
But unfortunatelly , they exclude many countries , not just mine . By the way ... Lol ... I tried using VPN to create an account ... What a strange thing ... Both for GG and Natural 8 I created an account (two times in Natural 8 ) , but when I tried playing on their lobby , while VPN was still open , a message appeared saying players from my region are not allowed ... This has never happened in no other poker room in the past , great or small one ......
LOL .... Do they have a software , a programme to identify your true IP even when you use the best VPN ?? Or maybe all poker rooms can identify your true IP , but most of the others allow you to DEPOSIT , play a little and then tell you that you are cannot withdraw winnings , after ou make a withdrawal request and after presenting your true id , or when you have good papers they will tell you they have investigated and found out the truth ... So is Natural 8 so exceptional that they have super tools to find your true origin and all other pokerrooms suck on this ?? or every poker room has these tools , they know how to identify you but they are scammers prefering to take/steal your deposit first ???

What a shame antonis321, if I understand to you, you make a deposit in GG network and they don´t allow you to make a withdrawal? You tried to contact support, of course. What do they answer about it? The banned country couldn´t be an excuse, because they got your deposit. I remember that the chinese poker´s room that I registered, was extremely annoying with the verified documents to allow the withdrawal

Once in my life i tried to use a VPN but it changed my time zone to the other poker rooms and i couldn't play there anymore. I don't know how you managed this thing. I will not try again and it is not necessary. I have 4 rooms that are enough for me.

No , maragatero , they didn't allow me to make a deposit , not even play one just freeroll . that's good on behalf of them , cause otherwise it would mean they leave you making the deposit , and they would still this deposit when you would try to withdraw and get a no-no as an answer , Some rooms do this . But GG or Natursl 8 I don't elieve they do this , nice and right of them
Ofcourse, if they let me deposit , I would only deposit 10$ , as a test deposit ,then try to build bankroll , then withdraw . If the withdrawal was successfull I would deposit again (far less risk) , if not I would stop playing , having lost only 10$ , which is nothing

Never heasrd of Natural 8. Of course this is another site that is not open to Israelis so still Pokernuts is the only one available. Today a parliament member handed a law she is trying to pass to make Poker leagle again in Israel. If she does well maybe we'll get the normal sites back.

In Israel, the law must be good for more poker rooms to operate there. In Romania in 2016 they completely changed and eliminated all poker rooms. Those who paid for the license were given the right to operate ( only 5 operators ). Now after 4 years there are only 4.

I think ACR used to operate in Israel , don't know nowadays if they keep on doing it , cause in the recent past they made the decision to depart from some countries (I believe Turkey is one of them) , from which deposits on the site are impossible due to restrictions , or such a thing I think I remember saying , wasit Phil Nagy ??? Rational , if players cannot deposit , no reason for th pokerroom to offer its services to them . What can we say in other countries , where alythough we can deposit , some pokerrooms or casinos exclude our country . Some of them are very afraid of the regulations and the govrnments , some others underestimate the will of the players in these countries to play more money , or maybe they think they don't have lol .

Well, what happened there finally? Someone played this tournament? I miss to know wich asian poker´s room was that, if the software that there is used is the annoying cartoon -that some players abuse to show all the time-, and if the players was son loose than I remember...Nobody play there? Asian poker´s freerolls are really crazy, but I want to know something about this tourney
