i assume you are one of those tech savvy kids that likes to shorten their typing, but clearly there is no time saved in the words "Muney" and "onli".

It's been a long time since i've played online and today or tomorrow I'll be making a deposit again.

However, i know the times they have a change(d) so I really don't know where to be playing anymore.

I figure the options are pokerstars or Fulltilt, depending on if I want to go with Pstars reward system or FT's RB.

Starting at NL25 and should be to NL50/NL100 rather quickly.

Is one site that much better than the other in terms of quality and what I would get back at those levels?

Are there any smaller sites that I should consider instead?

Any advice welcome, just see'ing what public opinion is.

Go with FullTilt with rakeback imo. Stars used to be better, not anymore...

I am looking to jump back into the online fray again after about a year off. I have been a long time UB player (for the miniview only) and since they have changed their user interface and look like all of the other sites, Im shopping around. Between Pokerstars (FPP i think) and Fulltilt (rakeback)... where should I go?

Full Tilt is excellent for rakeback gives 27%, stay away from JokerStars

UB and AP have had pretty big scandals. Stay away from those two. If you're looking at it from a bonuses/rakeback point of view, Full Tilt is the way to go unless you're a very high volume player. Stars has top-notch customer service though.

Depends on what level you play. If you're playing above nl400, tilt is your only real choice, but if you're playing lower than that, cake is a nice network with real easy opposition.

I am depositing to day to start playing cash games online. I will not deposit to Pokerstars or Full Tilt.

Which site do you think is the best site to deposit to to play cash games with Rakeback.

Please consider:

-Cash OUts
-Action level
-Software
-Deposit bonus

Im not much of an online player, mostly play live. I have played on Pstars for 3 years or so. Never really done to well. But I am looking to start playing with some real discipline and roll managment. Kinda wanna start something new.

So please tell me what site I should begin playing on.

Thanks.

It's a good bet that whichever one you choose is the one the fish choose. Bit of a catch-22.

Hello I'm about to deposit $200 onto a site to start building my bankroll until I am good enough/have enough money to play 1/2 NL on Stars. I have signed up to a few sites through DC Rakeback including Cake, Aced, Carbon, and True. There are also other sites that I could try such as Bodog, Absolute (not sure bc I have account at UB?), Players only, and Power Poker.

My question is with so many choices, which will be the best to sign up with, given my situation? I need enough traffic to be able to clear the deposit bonuses and eventually to get the free DC subscription (must clear $500 MGR in a month), but I wouldn't think this would usually be a problem at the micros. Also I need to know which sites are the easiest to clear bonuses at? I would like to hear some reviews with pros and cons for these poker sites.


I am a US player, and have been playing for a couple of years at PStars, FTP, and UB.

Honestly, just go with the software you like the best. I can't play on Cake because their software is SOOOOO bad. It doesnt matter what kind of bonus they offer - its just an ugly piece of software that I wont have any part of.

Good players will win regardless of the site. Bonuses should be ancillary, not main factors in where you play. I know its tempting because it looks like free money, but bonuses are temporary.

I'm a Full Tilt guy. Stars is pretty good. I'd probably play a lot on Party if it was allowed here in the states.

I tried the Merge software on some play money tables, and I really like their "mini" tables. The only issue I have with them is that HEM is not currently compatible, but I can get some sort of conversion software which costs $30....

I have accounts on Titan, Fulltilt and Pokerstars, wondering if there are any even better games out there on Titan? I play tournaments in FT and Pstars, I play cash on Titan and play omaha in FT and stars.

Wondering if there are any other websites I should be playing on? Or that you recommend? Cheers for help

www.pokerscout.com basically tells us that FTP and PS are the way to go.
