Double or nothing is gone

What is up with that?

My first thoughts was that this was a goldmine for BWIN as they didnt last as long as the normal stt`s and the rake was the same.

From a player`s view; D/N was a great tool to build up a roll from scratch. (or to loose your money slowermad) They were popular and filled fast.

Any theories why they killed it?

A pokersite will usually only make tourneys designed for rake rather then fun for the customers, so where did BWIN loose money here?

I dont usually play D/N myself, but a friend loving D/N made me aware of it, and im curious.

Yes very strange,as you say kim they must have been a goldmine for Bwin.

Have you looked for them under the 'Nothing or Nothing' Tab?very_happy

Maybe it's the 1st step to returning to a credible poker site?

you need to be slapped in the head if you play a double or nothing that is the same rake as a regular stt.

the problem with the rake is you could play a 10+1 here, or a 10+.4 on ps, for example. that's a big difference.

i meant a slap in the back of the head, not a slap in the face. i apologize for not being descriptive enough with the bodily harm i meant to inflict.

I dont think PS do a £10+.4 DON monkey. They do a $10+.8 though.

Thing is I find the structure of them a bit faster on ps with the antes, so value wise for me its pretty close between PS and bwin DONs
