Do you think it is better to play only at one site, or have accounts on various sites?

I play on different skins on merge because I'm playing with mostly the same people everyday and I like to keep my identity hidden.

I play on 21 different sites (I just counted the icons, lol).

I chase after bonuses & value-added tournaments. If I were only playing on one site I'd miss 90% of them.

Also, by playing on a bunch of different sites, I'm able to play a bunch of tournaments of simliar buyin & structure at around the same starting time (ie. If I'm playing $10 buyin level, I can easily load up 7-10 mtt's all starting at or around the same time

If you play freerolls you are better off playing every site and maximizing your earning potential. You will achieve a few things by doing this. You will find a site that agrees with your tastes in graphics you will find a site you prefer and you might find a site you win on.
Good Luck

I only play on two sites. Carbon because it has CC $100 added game on friday and has great ev. All the rest of my play is on PS because I can't be bothered loading diff sites.

I have accounts on way over 50 sites but I usually only play on 2, PS and Inter Poker but if i get a good reload bonus on a different site I will deposit on there and play like mad to clear the bonus and then cash out, I dont do that as much these days but I used to do it all the time.

I used to primarily play pokerstars. I have had brief stints on FullTilt. After Black Friday I did just Cake. Now I just do Carbon. All micro stakes.

If you are a grinder, playing on one site will help you earn the bonuses faster than if you are trying to play a bunch of sites.

If you are a freeroller, multiple sites is the way to go.

IMO.

depends on what your goals are. Some sites have good bonuses for loyalty. If rakeback and bonuses pad your bottom line significantly, then it may be worth it to play on one site. If you bumhunt HU, then you should play on multiple sites.

I like multiple sites mostly for freerolls.... Its also good if you're running bad on one site you don't have to pack it in....you have variety

...different strokes for different folks, imo

If youre playing on Merge i would just play on 1 skin considering you can only get r/b on 1 site.

But Bubbles says, "Cardschat has games on 3 merge skins, missing out on any of them would be -ev"

I also play on just about every site i can. Its great to be able to play a 5 buyin 500 gtd on one site then hit a private buyin on another. i also agree a freeroll should be open to downloading alot of sites. when i first started i kept finding myself missing huge freerolls. now yrs later im not so worried lol. om a side note there is at least one program i think called sandboxie. which allows you to play 2 merge site on cake and others at the same time . i find this helps when i have a private game commitment on one site but really want to play a game on another.
