This was also the very first poker room i ever played in ... still remeber the time when i didnt know how to play texas holdem. The pokerboom is over long time ago and im sure many more pokerrooms will fall due to the economic crisis .

For the last 5 years I've heard about how fishy Ongame is so all regulars seek to play there to empty the fish tank. The concentration of fish must get thinner and thinner or

The ongame sites are all casinos or bookmakers too. So they grow their own fish.

Yes I know but they have to grow alot cause it's like Mekka for all the regulars I know. But apparently the casinos grow sufficient fish to keep the wheels spinning
I played shortly at Mansion when they were on the Ongame network, couldn't stand the software

Rebuy thingy is a bug too
At least you CAN rebuy after the last major update.
Ah it's a long time since I played on Ongame. Fancy update
1 skin closes another one pops up I don't think we will run out of skins
I got flamed on a danish forum because I got rakeback on a Ongame skin which is illegal according to Ongame rules and many other players was affraid the specific site would close because of users like me LOOOOOOOOL. It's the specific pokerroom that doesn't follow the rules they signed up for when they joined Ongame not my responsebillity I just MILK MILK if possible

Not closed, but maybe kicked out of the network. Like NoiQ from ipoker.
