Review My Site

[Georgia Poker]

I started a site just like this about a year ago called partypokercomps.com. I got a letter from them to take it down a few months into it.

Since I get a ton of MGR traffic there it wasn't worth me rocking the boat so I took it down.

Do you have permission from them to do this?

OH, that sucks.

It is a downer when you work so hard on a site only to be told to shut down later. YOu must've been pissed.

What were the specifics for them to request to take down the site?

Hi Quinn,

I didn't actually have a site that got shutdown. I was just speaking generally. Perhaps your query was directed at Georgia Poker?

[DealerDan]

If you've "launched", then fix your forum up. if I go to visit and view the forum, I get to read a bunch of nonsense posts including stating that certain people are gay. It just looks very amateurish.

[coxquinn]

good point dan...if only I had control over the forum yet! I'm working on it...

They were pissed that I was doing rake back and using their name to the left of a TLD.

That was early in my days of poker affiliate stuff, didn't realize I used so damn many !!!!'s

I used it after that as a test site, the poker coach thing was just that, a test.

So in essence the way players earn points is no diferent than the way a pitboss at the casino strolls over every few minutes and marks a card documenting your action?

Another way to do it would be by having players just email you their hand histories from each session. That would result in a crap load of paperwork though.

The question I have is what if I play every night between 2:00 AM and 4:00 AM while you sleep and can't monitor my play?

I'm just curious on how it works without seeing individual trackers. Great site design though and an awesome idea fro rewarding your players without rakeback if you can get it to work.
