    cool...but i mean, the high roller guarantee is the same as the ftp daily guarantee (which also happened to have a smaller buy-in)

    meh...kind of makes me sad

    Grinding a *big* series during the ncaa tournament. It almost seems like it's back and nothing ever changed.

    Question if it is taking 8 weeks to get paid and max cash out of 2500 what is really the point in playing? I would like to play the series not hating just wondering if I'm missing something. It has been 6 weeks for my cash out and nothing.

    It is depressing, but at least they are trying.......Unlike Bodog who says "Hey people don't want to have screennames and pictures, they just want to be a number, and Not just a single number, a random number, that changes everytime you take a seat at a table. Lets do everything opposite of the most succesful poker site in the world"

    Thanks for the info I didn't no that they were doing that.

    Do you even play on the Merge network? Not sure how this makes you sad when you aren't even grinding on the network. I am excited about the series and making the best about the post black Friday situation.
