WH banned me for winning to much off there sports book, if you only ever play poker whatever but if you ever start turning a consitant profit on sports they limit and eventually shut down your account, same at Partypoker/Partycasino. 888 doesn't seem to care and of course PS is the nuts for poker.

hi,

I play mostly nl50 and sometimes nl100.
I play mostly at US peak times so a US facing site would be probably best for me.
Any Ideas ? I dont care about rakeback as I play pretty low volume. I only know merge, chico, cake and WPN. Are there any more ?
Thanks <3

I am currently on PS and 888, but I was wondering if any other sites offer a good selection of zoom/rush/snap poker tournies, preferably in the $5-20 range. 888 and PS are decent, but per day they really only have really 4-6 (combined) tournies of this sort and they are the format that I feel best serves my style.

I am currently in Canada if that makes any diff.

Thank you for reading and I look forward to your answers.

Cheers,

As a note to the mods who want to move this: it was moved and I didn't get answers, can this please be left on the main board so it gets seen and I can get some good suggestions back.

That's pretty funny. Yesterday you said you play full time for a living.


BTW, there is a sticky thread at the top of this forum where you'll get better answers about the offshore poker sites that service US players.

- for each game type?

-which game types are still good/most profitable?

Interested to hear people's opinions now that stars rakeback
is 4% and I would love to take all of my money off TBH.
I just hate them now. I would quit stars and take a cut in my pay just so I dont have to support them any more.

Really nice post I hope it will work out!

My contribution :

Winamax the french leader

Best variant : Omaha 5 cards

Who can join : worlwide but USA, UK, Spain, Italy (country that require a license)

The game run everyday like between 5 to 9 tables from plo 100 to plo 2k. There is some reg battle.

rake description 6,5% ( there is a big tax for the french government) :
0,10/0,20 € < <=3/6 € inclus :
2 players : cap 1,5 €
3 players : cap 2 €
4 players : cap 2,5 €
5 players : cap 3 €
Tables aux blindes 5/10 € :
2 players : cap 2 €
3 players : cap 2,5 €
4players : cap 3 €
Tables à partir des blindes 10/20 € :
2 players : cap 2,5 €
3 players : cap 3 €
4 players : cap 3,5 €
5 players : cap 4 €

Rakeback up to 40% but more than 31% is really hard to achieve.

I think ACR has the best RB in online poker now but also has the hardest player pool. I'm not going into any more detail then that for such a vague question.

Foresight.

jump around, sounds like a guy in your situation should always have a reload or 1st deposit bonus going. sounds like you are not in the USA but maybe u r in Jersey, u mentioned Stars. All the sites have their pros and cons

Link to stars 4% rakeback? Or is that just tongue in cheek

i play tournies on stars, used to be HUSNG reg.
but i saw in one of the threads that if you are a withdrawal player and not a deposit player, you get way less in the chests. And i can see that just from playing and opening dozens of chests where the most if EVER got was $2, one time. A reg in one of the threads said his rakeback amounted to 4% after some reasonable sample. Not gonna look for it right now, but its one of the newer ones bashing chests (or "the coffins" as raidalot put it)

But yeah basically im just asking peoples opinion, should i be playing cash games on another site or tournies on another site or just stick to stars because the large player pools outweigh the **** RB. I have a small bankroll, so I cant jump around and test things as easily, especially trying to build up in this tougher environment where it's so much tougher to rebuild if you go busto or lose a large chunk. I know there factors to take into consideration about my personal life and such, but just what are some of your guy's opinions on the state of games around. I've just basically stuck to stars always and never ventured out, but now it seems things are just going to keep getting worse with stars. And honestly i feel like the general player is so much tougher on there just recently plus the RB is just ughhhhhhhh. Its frustrating. It also just makes me so angry to continue to pay for their service when they have treated their players so unfairly. Sorry this was ranty.

i just read my post through. Basically what im asking is which sites are the player pools easiest/value best overall for:

-tournies
-NL cash low stakes
-the site wont do some shady stuff/monopolize online poker then ruin it

p.s. **** u stars

even better question.
Is there anyone that plays on non-stars as their main, and doesnt play and stars
AND has the ability to play and stars but because they simply choose not to? What are your reasons/does anyone play elsewhere purely for a better hourly? Just not looking for "I can't play on stars because i'm american,iraqi,syrian, etc." or wherever else poker is illegal.

Yes kahn, there are ppl who dont want to play for an affiliate and/or arent rb grinders. But thanks.

Try 888poker.

Are the games even beatable with this outrageous rake? I like the gametype, but I can´t imagine that it is much fun to play with a 6,5 % rake.

Hello 2+2.
Haven´t played poker for the last 1/2 year ish, and got a question for you guys. What online pokersite would you deposit money onto nowadays, with stars cutting rakeback insanely from what I´ve understood.
As I started in college this year, and have invested like 90% of my networth/poker winnings into stock and funds I´m just looking to deposit a small amount (500$ ish) and try to grind up a decent roll by grinding micro-small stakes in the begining. What pokersite would you guys recommend for this. Would be nice if you also factored in software, traffic and soft games.

Thank you

What sites are available in Norway, what games are you looking to play and what volume are you looking to put in?

More or less every site is available in Norway. Looking to play mainly NL with some PL. Have been known to put in some pretty solid volume, but maybe not extremely much anymore as I´m a student.

Where players from Serbia can play? I would like to play micro limit (0.10e/0.20e) cash game on one of the following poker networks:

• Ignition
• Unibet
• iPoker
• Chico

It would be nice to have solid rakeback, and weak players field. Which option is the best? I use Skrill.

Can somebody help? BetFair, Tigergaming, BetOnline...?
Ignition network, Unibet and Coral(from iPoker) does not accept players from Serbia.

kuuuukk,

PokerScout.com is as good as any where else for a comparative ranking of different sites. If a volume-based rakeback/reward program is important to you as a net withdrawing player, then PartyPoker is likely to be your best option.

That said, you may find that other sites which reward losing players has an indirect benefit to you: it is possible (although heavily disputed) that rewarding losing players will cause them to play and lose more to you in the long term because they'll get more entertainment for their net deposits.

Thus, rather than focusing on rakeback, I think it would generally be preferable to focus on your overall net winnings. That will combine all three things: winnings at the table, rake "paid" and rakeback.

Even if you just focus on the rake "paid" and rakeback percentages, and exclude your profitability at the tables, then you can't focus on just rakeback: Obviously, a site which charged 1c/pot rake and gave no rakeback would be better than a site which charged 10c/pot rake and gave 70% rakeback (obviously, that discounts your profitability at the underlying games).

I am an online (European) grinder. For now I am exclusively playing on Pokerstars because of the big playing field. I am playing mostly 16NL and 25NL. And occasionaly 10PLO and 25PLO. I don't play that many hands seeing as I only play four tables at most at the same time.

I can't help but feel that I am leaving money on the table by not getting rakeback from Pokerstars. In the old days of Full Tilt I received about 20$ rakeback per week. Over the course of a year that does add up.

At which site should I be grinding in order to receive some decent rakeback?Or am I not playing enough hands/ stakes not high enough to really make a difference?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Kind greetings

Look at the top of this forum for the rakeback request form. There are 2+2 advertisers who should be able to help you out. I imagine they will recommend Party, Microgaming, Winning Poker Network.

What is the best option for o playing online poker in Italy? is it ACR?

I'm still sitting on the edge of my sit regarding the shared liquidity player pool between Italy France and Spain which could be an amazing opportunity.
but haven't heard any new news in quite some time.

I'm very sorry if this was discussed in other threads allready.

Hello everyone! Don't play on Tiger gaming!!! I placed a bet today of a 150$ on Las Vegas and Vegas won 7-0, so I went in my cashier and I realized I still had the money i did bet but but not the rest. So after i confirmed my bet they gave me and bet id, that I didn't write down, cause usually website don't try to scam people, so I figured it would be the same this time. I talked to the live support and they said that I never placed a bet and that I don't have a bet id, therefore they won't pay me. They are a bunch of As*hole, and this is a fraud company. I strongly suggest to anyone thinking about playing on Tiger gaming or Chico network, not to. Save your money, your time, and don't encourage a unethical company.

bet365 any good? if not which ipoker skin should i go with

ipoker vs party?


i play mostly NL50 with some low torunaments sprinkled in

thanks!
