What poker site should i try?

I've used pokerstars for over 6 years. I started using bodog recently only because it's convenient. I use the sportsbook and the money transfers both ways. I just wanted some opinions on which site treats you the best and is most legit.

thank you,

ummmm well i think pokerstars and fulltilt are most legit. I never really cared for bodog much. I wouldnt go to ultimate bet or absolute poker. I would stay away from them!!! You could also try cake poker or poker world. Theres also minted poker. But i would stick with pokerstars or fulltilt.

Bodog is a decent site and on the up and up. Having said that, it's pretty hard to top Poker Stars. They have the best support in the biz, and the best options as far as deposits, withdrawals, game selection, etc. You picked a winner the first time around.

Full Tilt and Poker Stars are the best sites...ultimate bet isnt bad. Don't try Absolute Poker though, I tried that site and it seemed rigged in how hands played out. Plus Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet have had cheating scandals in the past.

Well, I always play on Absolute Poker. I think that site has the best players on it.

As far as your question. Yes, Pokerstars is the biggest site, but I don't like it. To me, it seems like its alot of skillful players on there, and I dont have much success.

As for Bodog, I like it. Alot of people come from their sportsbook to try out poker. So u should find more fish there.

As far as safety, and deposit options. Pokerstars is the better site.

I say, just play both and enjoy.

Full Tilt Rocks with the new software (if it works for you). I kind of Like Paradise poker as well. Bodog does have alot of goldfish for the sharks, as I'm sure you already know!!! If you not a U.S. player that opens up a couple of doors as well, especially if you like FREEROLLING.

Ultimate Bet and Absolute poker are the exact same site. If you login on Ultimatebet you are playing against Ultimate Bet players and Absolute Players. Same with Absolute, you login there and you are also playing against Ultimate Bet Players.

Lol, you played in only one room for so long?
If you like the smaller rooms, I think it's good to try Everest. It has good freerolls for new depositors (eg. many bankroll builder satelites for a weekly 2500$ tournament).

I think , many of members will agree with me that fulltilt is one of the largest poker room which is worthy.

Also I try to search new rooms which offers interesting promo actions.

Try Betraiser . Betraiser is rake free poker. They takes a 10% comission from net winning except rake.

10% from net... Does anyone else do that? How does it work out compared to where they rake from every hand? Seem favorable, right, because if you lose then you don't lose anything. Am I calculating that right? Has anyone done the math?

I say stick with PS or Tilt. You prolly like PS cause you have played there so long and are used to its features. I played Tilt before PS and it took me awhile to make the adjustments. When you start playing any other sites it just takes awhile to make adjustments to it.

The thing is you can get rakeback on fulltilt and you dont get it back on Pokerstars right? So wouldnt that make fulltilt better? I cant get them back on either one cause i have accounts at both sites and dont have rakeback set up on fulltilt and they wont set me up with it either!!...So was looking for a better site myself that will actually appreciate me as a customer and give me rakeback as requested. I dont thnk PartyPoker gives rakeback either.

I would say Full Tilt or Pokerstars just because they are the most well known and reliable.

I play exclusively on Full Tilt and like it there but I know there are more players on Pokerstars.

I started on pokerstars 3 years ago and since 1 year I also play on fulltilt, tried out a couple of other pokersites like everest, titan, ultimatebet but deinstalled them all after a while, support and software on FT and pokerstars are more reliable..
