Seems to me that is Dutch Boyd's hair brained scheme. From what I remember, you pay to become a remember of his "club" and then pay monthly dues to have the privelidge of playing at his site for "free".

It generally wasn't accepted well in the online poker community - it came off as being a little "scamish".

Yeah, I don't know what / how their planning to make any money off it. And for that matter, who's server they are going to plug into. (I find it hard to believe that he has the capitol to b/r a new game server offshore, but I may be wrong.

Advertising, membership, sponsors, etc. It will be interesting to see if it flies. The other thing I don't know is how long this has been in development. The domain was created on 26-FEB-03
