Hi,

I play poker occasionally with friends, and I want to start playing online once in a while for fun as I'm less busy with work and have more time on my hands. I don't want to play high stakes, I'd probably put in $500 - $1000 a month, and I have no expectation/delusion of winning. This is 100% just for fun. I'd probably play less than 15 hours a month.

Since I live in Canada, I believe that most of the big sites (like Pokerstars and Partypoker) are accessible. However, bigger is not always the best, and the people on this forum will probably know the best.

I don't care if certain sites have fish and others have professionals. What I do care about is the software and interface, fun tournaments, legitimacy (i.e. no shady company that won't honor a cash out or goes bust overnight), legality (should be able to play there legally), and enough players so that I don't have to sit and wait for someone to come along.

Just looking for some recommendations, thanks!
