Only playing on Bovada right now. Want to diversify. Thoughts on WPN vs. Merge Network?

 

Thanks.

Both are decent.  If I had to pick on I'd probably go with PokerHost (Merge).  They actually have a really good Sunday schedule.

Merge has better software and a more reliable client, and, for what it's worth when talking about unregulated US-facing sites, a pretty good track record dating back years for account security and payouts (albeit they aren't lightning quick). WPN isn't plagued by the god-awful decision to make every single MTT an unlimited re-entry with extended late reg, so WPN structures are more playable. There are some moves to scale back the late reg periods that may address this issue on Merge in the coming months.  KB mass-multitables on both so you can 3-bet him relentlessly in the early/mid stages for profit.

p.s. If you're going to play MTTs on Bovada and Merge/WPN at the same time, better invest in a pee bottle. Do they have those yet at the TPE Store?

Thanks for the feedback KB and Punty.  I am in the exact same boat.  Plan to put some roll on both Merge and WPN in the next month or so.  Pretty sure I still have accounts on both.  Does anone know if either has a workable Mac client that works with PT4?  Also wondering if there are significant differences in how the fields play in these vs. Bovada- I would assume Bovada is probably a good bit softer than either of these.
