Hey guys, so I haven't really played much since Black Friday and want to get back into online poker again. I play live, but I want to start playing online again. I wanted to deposit some money and I was wondering if anyone can recommend the best site based on deposit bonus/rb/ and play pool. Thanks!

America's Card Room, Black Chip Poker, True Poker (all one network) is where I started out recently. Depends on what state you live in.

If you don't mind playing as & against a bunch of anonymous numbers then Bovada is the site for you. A bonus to the anonymity is that the site does not support 3rd party tracking software or databases. Bovada has quick US payouts in check form, usually a week & a half and you get one free withdraw per month in the format of your deposit or you can chose from a number of deposit & withdraw methods.
If you don't like the idea of not "knowing" who you are playing with then the rooms twiztidwolff mentioned above are great too.
I play on all of the above with the exception of True Poker and I like playing them all. I can play anonymously on Bovada or play as different "characters" on Americas Card Room & Black Chip Poker. I'm going to have to check out True Poker soon though.
When you do decide where you will deposit please make sure you start your account through one of the Cards Chat Links to tie your accounts together & get all sorts of added bonuses & perks.

I'm about to deposit into Bovada for the first time; how do I link the two?

I am a fan of Bovada and Merge. I might be a fan of other sites, if and when they get to US players and/or the rest of America!

Hear me out there, guys? Get your butts into the US market, poker stars! Hey, Ultimate! Rest of America, please! I do not plan on moving to Nevada anytime soon.

I may be just adding more to the major opinion here, but I currently only play on Carbon, Black Chip, and Bovada. I like Black Chip and Bovada the most out of these three though. Just something about the software I guess. Hopefully pokerstars will be getting into the US market soon though. The deal with Atlantic City's Resorts Casino is supposedly going well, so it's actually somewhat likely that PokerStars will be back soon....at least for New Jersey :p

Not sure why people are excited by PS coming back to US, they ll never be able to play against the rest of the PS layer pool.

Rebuck suggested that Station casinos and Caesars would be among those ready to launch when the state gives the green light later this year.

IF PS comes back, by the time they get their license, caesars would have most of the player pool and traffic on PS will be poor

USA players should forget about dodgy PokerStars

I don't care about the crowd. Ps has the best tournies and the best software. I hope they come back I'll be first in line. So sick of carbon software. It's absolutely impossible to multi table on these merge sites

Why do you say that? Why would PokerStars limit the United States players to only playing against other US players? Would it be because of the whole Black Friday thing maybe?

PokerStars isn't #1 for just being a site to play at. Any other site will have an uphill battle to take their player base away.

Does anyone know anything about sites like Pokerstars and Full tilt becoming legal again in the US?
