~* Favorite Poker Site And Why *~

started at Full Tilt Poker didn't like so i played pokerstars thought it was ok put 20 dollars in to bodog got it up to 56 so i would have to go with bodog i love that site.

I like Titan and Party.Also playing 32red and PokerStars.

My favorite site is anyone that I can beat.

Full Tilt for me... Best Graphics and easiest to navigate....
Also it seems to have more better players so I have stepped up my game a level by playing there. Now I cash out often, after about a year of the learning curve....I always hear about the "Bad Beats" at sites, and I can tell you that I was a Dealer at a card room in LA. and it is the Game that produces bad beats, not the sites.
Good luck to all.

pokerstars is my fav..... I love the 2.20 sat tourneys to the 100K.

hahaha... i think anyone would feel that way!

Do you have problems with the log on's? It seems like it takes forever for me to get on to full tilt...?

Started playing online at Bodog. Didn't like it because of too many connection problems. Graduated to NLOP and was satisfied until I discovered PokerStars and FullTilt. Have been at PokerStars and FT for awhile. Once in a while I'll stray to PartyPoker, Carbon, PurePlay, PokerNordica, and BigJuicyOdds. That's quite a few.

I play at fulltilt, gunslingerspoker.com and bodog

fulltilt and bodog for the larger tourneys and gunslingers is a newer site
that has good ring games and good rakeback

for Freerolls BOdog
but the best for me is TITAN

I think if you want great grafics try out this site. Victor chandler they have freerolls as well. I have been very lucky there. last week won 200.00 in a tournie. try it out you make like it.

full tilt poker: easiest to navigate + bonus is really good for first deposit


YES

Play at Absolute. Have been with them for years now, moved around a few times, but always go back to them. The Sng have an excellent structure, and there are plenty of good re load bonuses, plus a hefty sign up bonus

The software has just had a big make over too, I like it .

I am looking to join a new site very soon, transfer some br over to start playing Cash, was thinking about Full Tilt, although I have read that the competion is tough on there ?

My favorite would be pokerstars, thats what I started on. I like it because its clean, and easy to navigate.

Looked at some other sites, never really liked how lobbies were set up, or how the tables looked. They are usually too flashy for my taste.

pokerstars and full tilt they have the best poker softwares

I play 50-50 between Pokerstars and VC poker,stars software is great and the variety of games is awesome.
VC poker is a european only site I think,and the play is very soft,but don't tell anyone as it is my wee secret.

And they both have Mac OSX native clients for those of us who don't subscribe to the mass marketing of Redmond.

How can people like fulltilt's hand histroy, I must play atleast 1000 hands a day and I cant stand IT!

Also Another reason why i dont like fulltilt is because you can record observed hands, not like pokerstars where they dont allow that.
I know many people who have this program called poker hound. For example they are playing a 3 table sit and go, they open all 3 tables up and that program records what their VP is Preflop raise % and ect..
So when you get to that final table you already have all their infomation from not even watching the table.

Best Hand History = Pokerstars
Best Software = Tie
Best Customer Service = Pokerstars BY FAR
Best Sit and goes = Pokerstars
Best Cash games = Full tilt (Rake back FTW)
Best MTTs = Pokerstars (MTT Structure is excellent)

My choice Pokerstars. ty

Started from pokerroom, (in every 1h there's freeroll so thats why) Moved to fulltilt received my free 50$ turned it into 500$

For me, I prefer Full Tilt, and I take out the avatars. It has the best graphics and is easiest on the eyes. The competition is a bit tougher, and I do not get "sucked out" on as much because of that. Mostly play sit n go's. I have been to "sportsbook" and have done well but do not like the graphics. Ultimate Bet is my second choice, but I do not like the "Late Registration for tournaments" I feel if you don't get in on-time, then your'e out. The Bad Beat jackpot at Ultimate bet is the best I've seen anywhere including live casino's. (reason enought to play there)
Be careful not to play too much blackjack with your winnings if you want to see the money though.........Anyway, I am STAMDUBBORN on them all.

Good luck to all.

I love PokerStars but I m still trying to get used to the large fields. I learned the game on Bodog.

I like sites I can win on. Frustrated at FullTilt, but very successful at Carbon. Also ran my Bodog account up from $8 to over a thousand, then got it ripped off by a hacker.

Bad thing about Carbon is low traffic, not much Omaha. Good thing is fishiness, tourney structure, freerolls, software reliability. I did like the hand histories on FullTilt, but just couldn't win there.

Is it just me that thinks pokerstars is insane???

I played there a couple of times after getting sick of partypoker and the hands I saw were mental.

no joke I was seeing quads and houses as often as trips and two pairs anywhere else. (a lil exagerated)

Bodog has so many rediculously overpaying MTT Guarantees that I don't know why people haven't flocked there to bring the overages down. The overages have been big for years.

Try them, shhhhh, it's a secret!

I don't like Pokerstars much, seems like somebody always gets the "miracle" hand on me. But sometimes it seems all sites get that way!

Tiger, why should I choose the SNGs at Pokerstars, also why do you think the MTT structure is best there? What do you like about it?

Thanks, Becky

Wow, what did they do, i love Bodog. Don't scare me like that!

Becky

i like full tilt and pokerstars ultimate bets ok tho good money on Ultimatebet alotta donkeys

PokerStars also has a Mac native client now. Its still in the beta stages, but I haven't had any problems with it.

FullTilt does have the repretation of having better players than most any other site. That's one of the reasons I like it.

I figure that if I'm playing against some of the better players available, then my game is going to be that much better, even if it means losing a LOT while I learn and improve my game. But then, that's what playing for "fake" money is all about.

I thought I had a 'good' game because of my play on the net version of their software, so I made a good sized deposit. I was so wrong.

So instead of jumping head first (so to speak) into the cash games again, I'm working my way up in skill and difficulty in the play money games.

I still play for money, now and again, but not that often, and for low stakes so I can build my bank up again.

I dont know what the hell is wrong with full tilt. Im sick of it. I must be the bad beat champion of 2008. Im dead money at $10-$69 buy in sit and goes although i have came close in the $69 a few times. The bad beats were ridiculous so i had enough and tried Pacific and VC sites. Same again on VC but im doing really well on pacific for the last year. Bad luck i suppose with the other sites but im going nowhere else for now. Down about $1000 on fulltilt and VC combined. Up about $13000 on pacific. Enough said. Pacific rules

A little bit of advice. If you are going to go back to real money games get out of play money now. It just give players too many bad habits. For more experienced players, it will be like shooting fish in a barrel when you play at a decent stake. Play $5 sit and goes and play tight making medium to big bets with premium hands and bluff rarely but dont get greedy with your made hands. All in is always a bad move, you want to get paid. It might work at the low stakes but as you move up, good players dont call all in bets with 1 pair. Let them make the mistakes and dont play too many hands, biggest mistake of weak players online!

That's good advice. Thank you.

As to playing for play money, I warm up on the 2,000 18 person sit-n-go's and move up to the 10,000 person sit-n-go's.

It depends on how well I do at the 10,000 level for me to decide to play for money (low stakes $2 + $.25 18 person sit-n-go's) or not.

Playing this way has rebuilt my bank from a low of $8 to almost $50. A few placements in freerolls from here and other sites has helped as well.

Coke...no... pepsi...no... coke..Screw em both Im an R.C. man.Never was a trend follower.Poker pokerstars and Tilt are both fine and I use em both to fill the gaps, because they are so big there's always action.I stick to single table sit n go's on em no MTTs.I too dream of winning the sunday million or the daily 25k but in reality,it's not gonna happen 4 me or u.Look 4 MTTs on sites that have 50 entries or less with guaranteed money heres two PitBullPoker My personal fav. and sportsbookpoker .com which if you have trouble making deposits is a godsend ...NO credit or debit card is turned down.Ive made deposits with a card that was turned down at pokerstars tilt and bodog. the cash games are soft at sportsbook too,cross over action from the book like bodog.
