Entraction IGT Poker Network Rakeback
The Entracton or IGT poker network was once called B2B. The networks is licensed in Malta and owned by a company registered in Sweden. They've been for almost as long as the existence of the online poker industry and they've always been a solid contender in the market. They're generally considered to be a highly reputable and trustworthy network.
Rakeback
Entraction offers 30% rake back at this time. Rakeback can be cashed out daily using Muchos Poker Entraction. Along with rakeback, Entraction also offer some generous bonuses, in some cases they are deducted from rakeback and in others they are in addition to rakeback, this will vary on different bonuses offered across various IGT skins.

Software
IGT Poker utilise a java based online poker platform. Players can choose to play up to 24 tables at a time. Basic features are available like note taking and tiling of tables. Other than that the software is very basic and not overwhelming. The lobby is nice however and very simple to use. It has no frills but all the essentials you'll require.
One good feature about Entraction is the games offered, they offer different games such as Americana, Telesina and for the Omaha lovers, they have 5 Card Pot Limit Omaha.
Traffic and Competition
The traffic is a touch on the lower side, averaging around 3k-8k connected players on any given day. The network hosts a good mix of strong and weaker opposition. But be warned, as I'm sure you're probably already aware, some Scandinavian players can be quite tricky to play against and there's no shortage of them on this network, after all, they are Swedish owned.
Games will vary, during peak hours you'll generally have no difficulties finding attractive seats on certain tables but these tend to run sporadically. There's generally games running for most stakes for NLH 6max and full ring. There's never any shortage of Omaha action either, but again quality of games can vary drastically.
SNG traffic is very light and you mostly only get super turbo and heads up games playing, there's an abundance of tournaments running every day, fields, much like the cash games, can be tougher some days and easier to handle others.
Game select wisely and you'll find Entraction or IGT can be a good network to log some volume on. I'd recommend Muchos Entraction over other skins, as you have the option to transfer in and out of Entraction, this way you can game select across several different networks and have funds available on each one at the click of a button for when optimal games are running.

NOTICE TO PLAYERS ENTRACTION HAS CLOSED ITS DOORS:
In an unavoidable turn of events, IGT (formerly known as Entraction) have decided to close their network and terminate all Poker Skins. This termination is not specific to Muchos Poker as termination letters have been issued to all licence holders hosting the Entraction poker product on their platform. According to media reports, it appears that such terminations are driven by a world-wide re-organisation of the IGT operations and their desire to work only with a regulated American market.
