I've never played duplicate poker before but the concept seems interesting. is there any reasons why i should or shouldn't give it a shot?

What matters most is how well you walk through the fire.

There are mixed reviews on Duplicate. It's not for everybody. Some make good money on it, though. They do offer good tourneys for those signing up through PokerNews. For the low deposit minimum, give it a try. You may like it.

you will never know if something is for you until you try it, but before i would deposit, I would play some of their games for free, because this site is not for me. I dont like how this site plays poker. If every poker site ran their games like this, I am sure i would not even like poker. I am not even sure how this site gets away with calling this poker. Ive never seen the game played the way they play it. Id feel better playing the local lottery than depositing money to this site.

Sheepodog makes quite a bit on Duplicate. Even he will tell you that it's not poker. It's a completely different game. Like miestro07 said though, play a couple of free games and see if YOU like it.

It is too easy to cheat all you need is a friend in the same tournament and a phone hook up if you do play stick to the low limits. I play the low level rings its fun poker. If you play the big tournaments a phone buddy is a must
