I live in California, so I know there are a few sites I cannot play at. But I'm curious as to which sites are safe to play at? Meaning, aren't in the public eye as shady.
1. Americas Cardroom - I think many of us are fully aware of the things that joeingram1 pointed out. Is this still not a safe place to play?
2. Ignition Poker - Many people have concerns, but nothing necessarily provable (since it is anonymous). What do y'all think about this site? Is anyone here a winning player over a long period?
3. BetOnline Poker - As with all 3 of these sites, this one also gets horrible reviews on Trustpilot. Although I do realize, many of those people could just be on a downswing and are tilting. But is this site worth considering?
If there are others I have missed, please let me know. I am a bit skeptical on these online poker sites, so I'd rather put my money into a site that isn't going to cheat me out of it. Whether that be bots or super users or cheaters.
I played on Ignition for a long time. I still go on there every now and again. I have had no problems with them, and over that long period I have been a winner. But not much of one, and the most recent couple years it has been very difficult to win.
I have switched to Global Poker, where everything is easier. The cashouts are easy; they give you free money every day (not a lot); they give you a chance to get more free money; and the games are considerably softer than Ignition. They will start you with $20 without you ever having to deposit - so you can try it out totally risk free.
