    I don't understand these sites? They are all apart of the same network, so do I only need one username? What about the promotions (100% deposit bonus) etc. ??? I'm confuzzed...

    Hey tru,

    The way it works is that they all bring players to one centralized poker platform. When at a table on this network, you can and will be playing against players from several different skins of the network. It's all seemless for the player, though. The skins each can offer different bonuses, promotions, etc. But you can only get rakeback on one of them.So it's very important to choose the best skin for you the first time around when signing up for rakeback.

    The sites we recommend on the Cake Network are:

    Cake Poker

    Power Poker

    Players Only

    Doyles Room

    Red Star (no US or Canada players on Red Star)

    You can sign up for any of them through the rakeback section of P5s.

    I have a RedStar account Adam (USA).

    Players Only routinely suspends Europe accounts. they say that they are US/Canada only if you ask them, but last I heard they are opening to the world this month. Dunno when.

    I was not paying that close of attention but I thought they were going to start allowing multiple rakeback accounts. may want to ask about that

    Correct - but you are not allowed to have a rakeback account on Red Star if you're in the US or Canada

    Also true--we're under the impression that they now are world wide, but I'm not 100% sure about that.

    Definitely not. The reason for this rule is that it's not in the network's interest to have players "skin-hopping" for the best deals. The network wants to bring more players into it as a whole from outside--not have the same players moving from skin to skin. This same rule exists on the Merge Network, FWIW, and I expect it to be a mainstay on most networks in the future.

    Poker World is part of the Cake Network, yes? I used to play there and still have my account, I understand they got in. Haven't really checked it out in a while.
