IMO Pokerstars by far has the most donkeys.

Really? By sheer numbers that may be correct since Stars has more players than any other site, but I think the ratio of decent players to bad players there is very high compared to other sites.

There are a lot of poor players at bodog, and I've heard the same about Absolute.

I mostly play on UB and it's full of donks but online poker is full of donks especially if you mostly play low limit or freerolls. I doubt there's a mathematically significant difference from site to site it's probably almost entirely perception based.

Same-Same!

For the most part, all of the online site have the same amount of donkeys ratio wise--it just SEEMS like PS has more because they just have more players! What you REALLY should want to know is which site have the best withdrawal meathods---and if you're a 1st time depositer, which games you are best suited to----

With my mac, I can only play 2 pokerrooms: FullTilt and partypoker. Fulltilt has more recent competitors, while partypoker is (over)crowded with "timt2time" players...

2 start a bankroll, I only can give u one advice... Play tourneys and start with small number of players and buy-ins.

G'luck

Without a doubt it's PokerStars. I dont know if it's because they have more players than other rooms or just more Bad players. Either way, it's frustrating at times. But its all part of the game I guess. Could be worse though. You could be Phil Helmuth. Every single player at every single table he's ever sat down at is a Donkey! No thats frustrating! :eek:

PokerStars has the best customer service, the most players, most tourneys. In my attempts to build a bankroll at PS, it has been more difficult than other sites though.

I play on alot of poker rooms and i must say that Partypoker is the one where it is easiest to win in at least cash games.there is a very loose kind of palying in their cash game tables.The tournament usually is tighter tough.

Having the largest population, PS would have the most weak players. %wise, they're all about equal.

The site with the most donks and bad players I have seen have been at Cake and Bodog. They tend to be just very loose, aggressive, and just plain bad desicion makers. but like everyone else said, every poker site has its fair share of good and bad players.

I play on PartyPoker, FullTilt, PokerStars, BarnYard, PokerTime, UltimateBet, and ReeferPoker.

PokerStars has the most players online at any given time, but ReeferPoker is where I gain the most.

Hope this helps

If you're playing freerolls, they are all heavily populated by donks. I've played UB FT, Bodog, Cake, Absolute and Spin32 freerolls and pay tourneys and SNG. Can't say the quality of player varies much from one site to another.

It is all in how you see it, I have been on UB for some time and i would say theres more on there then in PS.
But for sites that have freerolls like CC you can bet you will see ones that are skilled, and some sites let the allin donks on every hand in!!!

Well, to be honest, there are bad players everywhere. You are not going to avoid them playing online, casinos, and probably even home games. lol. When playing against these so called "donks" just sit back and act accordingly with the goods. There called "donks" because they will mess up and youll get a chance to take there chips. Well gl!

I have played over 750k hands mostly on Fulltilt and bodog but many also on stars. I have played holdem, PLO, omaha8 and razz. My opinion is Fulltilt games are the toughest and bodog are the softest. I think the statistics bear that out also with Bodog consistantanty having the highest see-the-flop percentages.

The poker population is not significantly different at any of the major online sites. The only thing that differs is people perceptions. Proving that one site or another has more donks is sort of ridiculous and mostly this thread is pure speculation by superstitious people who get too emotional.
