I grind 25nl at pokerstars. I would like your opinion on moving to another site that offers rakeback. I have approx. 30 bi so I am going to move all my bankroll.
Can you suggest a poker room that offers rakeback with enough players at peak time? That means a site that is competitive to Stars in anyway. Any help is much appreciated.
full tilt would be the obvious choice as an alternative. they have the second most players and you wont have trouble finding your game there. also most likely the second best software IMO, allthough I dont like the clownish avatars and backdrops, etc. tilt ftw.

I think that FT has the same game difficulty as Stars. What about a smaller site with more fishes?
Since you are EU , I agree with Bobo. We europeans have soo much more choice in rakeback, kickbacks etc.
Or for example rakebacklovers, if i am not mistaken has a sponsored forum here, they offer a whole list as well with rooms (i think around 20)
I'm a pretty new winning player and have managed to build a $2,000+ BR at the microstakes on Full Tilt. I'm going to withdraw it all and redeposit the bulk of it elsewhere.
I live in Europe so prefer to play in Euros. Also, I want to take advantage of a new deposit bonus. New deposit bonus + rakeback = rakeback+, yes?
My good friend created a rakeback site which I've been using as my rakeback affiliate. I'd like to stay true to his network out of loyalty if possible. That means, as far as Euro sites go, I am limited to Paradise Poker, Poker Heaven, PKR Poker, NoiQ Poker, Betfair, Fat Bet, Party, and Everest.
I require high traffic as I 16-table the micros. I'm looking for a good rakeback deal plus a good deposit bonus plus a fish-laden atmosphere plus good software.
Can anyone give me some advice/suggestions regarding where to put my money??

Your loyalty to your friend and his site is admirable but if you are restricting your choices to the ones you have mentioned I am afraid you are going to lose out on a lot of value at so many other poker sites....
I think Party Poker is the best choice from the ones you mentioned. It is super soft, has always good bonuses (no need to deposit, just activate them). The software is unfortunately not as good as the Full Tilt software, but I like it way more than the softwares of the other euro sites.
The skill level compared to Full Tilt is like you moved down 5 limits, but keep in mind, that the peek times are different than Full Tilt's.
Good luck.
Where should I play?
Ok. From grinding around 10,000 hands at €.10/€.20 on Ladbrokes, and a second place tournament finish on Pokerstars, I have a £1000 bankroll that I want to start playing poker more seriously with.
I have started moderately successfully at the €0.25/€0.5 on Ladbrokes poker, however i would appreciate any recommendations in where I should play with the bankroll.
Basically my question is where should a part-time UK based player who is marginal winner at the micro stakes, and willing to invest time in improving, start playing?
Being compatible with Holdem Manager is considered a necessity, and potential bonuses/rakeback deals are also important.
Thank you for any responses, and apologies if this is in the wrong place.
Hi guys, I'm looking to combine my rolls of of Bodog and Full Tilt to a new site for possible rakeback.
Roll currently is at 1500 and I currently 4-6 table 25 NL with the occasional MTT.
Ive looked around on here but can not come to a conclusion of which site to move to.
I obviously would like rakeback, and don't know if my stake and volume (30-50k hands a month maybe) would do me any good with the star VIP program.
Ive looked into cake poker, with their rakeback and rewards system, but also don't know much mroe about the site, or any others that would work great for me.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, with info on rewards, rakeback, level of play, etc.
ive heard this, and I am open minded to not using one as long as no one else has the advantage against me, as it I feel it could really help my game. Dont want to play 25 NL forever
