    Hey all,
    I've never ventured into a tribeca room before.

    I'm sure there are some peeps here that have played them...

    I'm looking into all types...
    cash(nl & plo),sng's, and mtt's..
    thanks in advance for any info...

    BTW...did a search and didn't come up w/much

    Check out the rake on Doyles' room before you start. It seems a little bit higher then some other areas.

    Rake is taken to the cent not in intervals. No one ever seems to have a full buy in. Every table at every limit has at least one 20BB stack and another 30-40BB stack.

    Doesnt have 100x buyins at nl400.

    Tournament structure is rediculously bad.

    software reasonably nice

    soft NLHE games

    no other action that is particularly healthy

    tons of small buy in MTT"s....and occasional 'bounty' tourney for $55 that has decent prize pool, otherwise no decent tournies

    their sunday tourney is a re-buy at 345 with fast blinds and seemingly pays only 27 spots regardless of number of entrants.

    I have never had any sucsess there, but yet I still go back every once & awhile. Horrible tournament structure and the top 27 thing regardless of # of entries sucks. Cash games are pretty weak, and the sounds are annoying. I got like $30 there that I will probly hop on a nl cash table and try to do some damage tonight.

    Doyle's Room took money out of my account for a "rebuy" in a tournament that they admit was not a rebuy tournament. They never gave it back - yes, even after they admitted it was not a rebuy tournament. They kept saying they had to talk to their software people.

    I will never play another hand on their site. If you don't like sites that randomly steal your money/sites that have support that admits they A) took the money for a rebuy in a tournament, and B) the same tournament was not a rebuy tournament... then I'd suggest you never play there either.

    Crapshoot tournaments with no room for play. The 'extended' SNGs are pretty cool though.

    PLO games are sparse but the O/8 games are pretty good (real bad players).

    Limit holdem cash games at doyles room were loose and weak and the bonus wasn't hard to earn playing them.

    I just had a good experience at their low stakes limit hold'em game...

    Seems like a lot of Europeans play there and they play kind of solid...more straightforward poker in their NL tournaments...

    Don't recall a lot of bad beats on that site...which is something...

    If you want to play multis forget it a waste of time.. Cash games weak but there always seems to be alot of players with nearly minium buy in.. Stt are the best a little faster than other sites but the bad players more and make up for it
