    I really think the no HUD thing is killing your site. I just switched to Cake to try it out and its really a turn off for us mass multi-tablers. Your losing a ton of rake by doing this, because I know I'm not the only who 1 doesn't want to mass multi-table without a HUD/ other tools to make multi-tabling easy. I wouldn't of even tried cake if I knew about the no HUD rule...Any1 else agree?

    Also the cashout system is terrible for the average player. Minimum Check is $500 and if you do it the other way they take out 10% of your cashout. I think this prevents the casual players from deciding to join there. I guess I'm just spoiled by stars

    having never used a hud before I don't really see the big deal, but then again, I'm a recreational player and odn't play over four tables at low limits. call me ignorant but I don't see the big deal here and from my player perspective like the fact that people can't rely on a program to make it easier for them when playing me.

    when i go to the cashout option is doesn't specify that there is a different minimum for checks. you know for sure that there is a different rule?

    also, i thought they were waiving the check fee once per month or something. i've never cashed out there but with no tournies and sngs running i was planning only leaving a small amount on there for cash games only.

    ya actually try to go past that page and cashout . . . $500 min for checks. checks are only us options. when you cashout by check, you get a $35 shipping/courier fee, even though it apparently takes 2+ weeks anyway, and its the only option. they charge you for the only option they provide, which isnt even that convienent. really tilting.

    if cake starts allowing huds, i will officially stop playing there. one of the things that keeps the games juicy is not having tards with huds killing all the action (killing all the fish).
    keep the fish guessing. if you cant play without a hud, whats your brain for?

    At least for one check a month they will waive the fee though.

    As for HUD...f*ck it.

    Cake is doing fine with a few exceptions, which is the case at any site. Best customer service there is, soft cash games...Lee Jones?

    Cake needs to get their asses back up and running. It's been nearly a week, and nothing has changed. Doyle's Room as the rest that are on the Cake network. Once again proves why they are stuck in 1st gear!! I know Mr.Jones is the man there now. So why hasnt he come forward and gave us all a heads up on how long they will continue to be down and so forth. I have been playing on Sportsbook, going on 4 years now. I have almost drawn a line in the sand, with Cake. Payouts, are the shittiest on the net. Interface is horrible, have dropped their guarantees, and payouts are horrendous in tournies.

    Lee just did a podcast interview last week on Rounders Radio. It was the day before things blew up over there at Cake. It was a good interview and got me excited about the network... however, their long-lasting network downtime is making me think UB or Bodog might be a good place to check out.

    Too bad too, because Lee really had a lot of good things to say. Strong means weak?
