Choco, there are a bunch of different crypto skins, and all have different bonuses. InterPoker has a monthly $90 bonus for 450 raked hands, PokerPlex has a $50 bonus for 300 hands, CaribbeanSun has $40 for 250 hands, and WilliamHill has $25 for 5 hours of play.

I've only played the $1/2, so I can't speak to the $5/10, but play can be quite tight in the evenings (in the afternoon it's better -- a lot of the players are in Europe I think). The bonuses aren't too hard to clear though.

PLO action is very good, though you'll need a decent BR for the $100+ games because it tends to be aggressive.

Stay away from me cos I'll kick your ass ; joke....

You can make upwards of $300 per month if you whore all the cryptos but unfortunately for the americanly-inclined of you, several of the sites are available in british pound (£) accounts only. Of course, you can easily play at these sites and the nearly $50 monthly bonus for just 5 hours play is lovely, though it will cost you to use neteller to convert the currency.

William Hill Poker, UKBetting, TotalBet, RitzClub London all give £25 ($50) per month for 5 hours real money play. Williamh Hill also has a $ account, 25 per month. Interpoker has a $90 monthly match bonus and PokerPlex and Caribbean Sun both offer a smaller bonus, 40 or 50 I think. I play all the £ sites plus InterPoker.

Limit holdem is very tight, NL is not too bad and kinda loose at the right times. PLO is fairly soft, quite LAG, and I find it good because these days I know 75% of the players very well.

PL omaha is not the main game in Europe, either ... It's perhaps played a little more often in casinos than it is in the US, especially in London and on mainland europe (along with variants like Courcheval, which uses 5 cards and one revealed board card), but no limit holdem is the most common casino poker game by some distance.

I quit Caribbean Sun recently because I live in the UK and it's too much fuss to have an account, do the $ > £ conversion each month, etc, just to get the $40 bonus each month. I might return once I get my neteller account converted to dollars. I always used to have sucky luck there anyhow. For some reason I always tear up the tables at certain crypto sites (Interpoker especially, also UKbetting and William Hill to a lesser extent) and get creamed at others (Carib sun, Ritz Club London).

I didnt want to start a new thread for this question...It's about the Cryptos...Could I, or should I ever play in a game where it is labeled 1 pound/2 versus the 1/2 dollar game...Do they convert automatically or??? It just seems there are more games "over there" at times..
Thanks

However, remember that you are paying more rake if you play at the € or £ tables, since it gets capped at $3 and £3, IIRC. Some ppl say that the SH £ tables at Crypto are aquariums, but I don't have any firm evidence for it. It's a bit high for my current bankroll, but the flop%-seen seems sometimes to pop up to rather high levels.
