I knew that lol.

Here is a small review of the network.

They are based out of Malta and it is a very small network; Swank being there newest site.
Here is their network info;
EverleafGaming.com :: Home

I play nightly at Poker 4ever, and Pokerari.

I started with a little free roll money on both and have a total of over $500.00 combined.

Ugi is right there are large overlays on almost every tourney. I play the nightly $400.00 guaranteed and until recently was always an overlay. Last week I actually won this 2 nights in a row. $160.00 for first place.

The same players and donks will play the $3, 5. 10, or $50.00 tournaments because there is not enough action to go around.

Most of the players are Europeans with a heavy accent on Austrian and German, British and a few North Americans

With the addition of Swank we are seeing more and more donks every night.

The good: you play roughly the same 80% of peeps every night in the same tournaments so it is easy to take notes on players. You know within 3 tourneys who is solid and who the donks are.

Their level of play is even lower than what you see on Cake. There are solid players that know this and are making money here ( Hell even I am)

( the rebuys are insane, but I am making money there)

Hand History sometimes goes screwy sometimes and seems to miss hands.

Choice of 4 dealers even on swank, All the normal table options.

Busiest time is early evening for us, as most are Europeans.
Lots of Satellites to get into their biggest tourneys which are always an overlay.

I have no idea what the cash tables are like, I don't play .

You can transfer money between peeps.

Wait till you see Lord Jasper play.LOL

I am enjoying it here and I guess I should deposit something so I can get my money out.

My goal is to work up to the higher tourneys.
Any questions let me know.

When Doyle's Room joins the influx of tight tourney players will be noticable, I would imagine. Doyle's Room tourneys take a very long time to play. The last few players to the bubble can take over an hour.

edit.... sorry I'm mixing up networks/threads. This post therefore makes no sense

I've emailed them 4 times now with no response.. It looks like you are given rakeback automatically, but I'm not sure..

Swank Sign Up

I want to be clear that swank has not responded to 4 of my emails, so player here at your own risk. They are on a legitimate network though, so I don't think they are shady, just lazy apparently..
