Played a few (perhaps 15) myself, mainly out of boredom whilst waiting for a sit n go to fill up. Got 2 pieces of advice for ya.
1) dont bother, they are no fun whatsoever! If you want a 50/50 bet stick it on an even money horse at skybet. You'll save the buy in fee.
2) If you insist on havin a go i found by registering first i tended to win more. Coincidence perhaps or does this belong in area 51?

Rake earner. Pure and simple.

No place on a self respecting poker site.

SkyBet have a roulette wheel on the SkyVegas, if you want a (near) 50/50 gamble then go there.  Ludicrous playing a £50/5 roulette poker "game". £5 for the privledge. Just go on the roulette wheel..

I played Heads Up Roulette once, and once only. And that was because I didn't fully realise what it was...

 

And it still baffles me why anyone would play these... Even whilst waiting for their game to start. It reminds me of the very first days of Television 'Phone-Ins' where they'd ask viewers to call a premium rate number, and leave a message: “Say 'A' if you agree with the Government, say 'B' if you don't agree, and say 'C' If you don't know...”

 

It always stunned me that someone would willingly stump up £1.50, to inform an audience of strangers, that they didn't have an opinion on a topical issue.

 

Bizarre. But then again, if these people weren't around, there'd be nobody to feel superior to, so it all evens out nicely in the end.

It is a disgrace that a poker site offers this game.

I played one out of curiousity (I won btw my 94o vs K2 and I river a 4 yay).

This.

These are not poker. These are just pure gambling.
