Black Chip Poker is part of the same Winning Poker Network as ACR Poker, so most of the same advantages and disadvantages of ACR apply to this room too. It's a good idea to sign up for a BCP account if you already have an ACR account that you don't want to use for one reason or another.

Revolution Network Lowers Sunday MTT Guarantees...Again

UPDATE: 8/26, 8:30pm EST: The former $60k GTD Pro Elite Bounty MTT has been further reduced to a $50,000 GTD amount for next Sunday (September 1st). The tournament featured 388 players this past Sunday, down from 436 players on 8/11 (when it was a $75k GTD event) and 426 players on 8/18. No immediate word on whether this is due to the event's penchant for continued overlays, or if it's a pre-emptive measure on the heels of the upcoming American Labor Day weekend.

ORIGINAL: 8/25, 3:27am EST: In what seems to be becoming a weekly ritual, the Revolution Network has once again lowered a large swath of their guaranteed Sunday MTT schedule - continuing the ripple effect of losing a large influx of players from Intertops after the skin opted out of all $1,000 GTD or higher Revolution MTT's.

Cake Poker Renamed "Win Cake", Somehow Doesn't Magically Alter Public's Perception

published by PRB Manager on Wed, 08/21/2013 - 01:37
Win Cake?

Cake Poker recently renamed itself "Win Cake" in an effort to make all of the juicy (not stakes, or steaks for that matter) goodness they have to offer sound almost good enough to eat. Too bad no one has fallen for the ploy - and their offerings still taste like the back of a well-worn shoe.
