Why have seperate reviews for skins? Hollywood is a skin of Pokerroom, one has a rating of 79% and one 43%. That is pretty confusing.

Different bonuses, different support staff, different software... etc.

what were the differences that makes Pokerroom worse than Hwd?

Is pokerrooms software really less stable than it's skin?

No one reading those reviews would know that the sites are related.

I have never used Hollywood, and to be honest I probably would rate sites alot more critically than others.

I believe that Poker network just increased their rake schedule alot, especially at the lower limits (3/6 and below it is brutal). I don't know if the Hollywood points are the same as Pokerroom either, Pokerroom just changed it so that it is harder to get bonuses at all levels.

I am not sure who did the review for Hollywood, but some people may like their software...I hated it, clunky slow and stalled all the time.

from the website, hollywoods bonus is harder to clear.

I have heard the same critiisms of hollywood as you have of PR.

Seems points are almost impossible to get at .5/1

I looked at playing there for the bonus, but it seems other sites can be more profitable.

im not sure where to discuss your site review. I would like to point out that your review of UB states "you can only play 3 tables at a time". this is not true. You can play as many tables as you want. However to play 3+ you must contact the UB support and request the feature. I can play 5 tables, however chose to only play 4max.
