There's no reason why you can't continue to play on FT - admittedly the traffic will be down now our Amercian compatriots can't play but there should still be enough.

Other than that I've been contemplating going into Titan as I've heard the SNG's are quite soft there - in addition if you sign up through CC then you'll get entry to a monthly 1k (not sure if $ or £) freeroll.

This isn't entirely accurate re: Titan. Firstly 'yes' if you go through CC links you can gain an entry to a Monthly $1K freeroll 'but' you must deposit on Titan when you sign up.
I've rarely played micro SNG's on Titan ($5) but can tell you I don't like them. They are 10-man tables & there aren't that many of them running (in other words.. good luck at 8-tabling!!).
MTT's are okay but haven't seen you make any reference to that bein' your preference.
Micro cash on Titan > I've rarely played any but tables were soft but not a ton of them running either.

You'll be able to put in more volume on FTP & Stars than Titan... by far!

I'd also suggest using Cardschat's search feature when looking for this type of info. as there have been many threads in the past & most info. would still apply.

Strange as you're the only UK person I've seen on the forums who is experiencing that problem. If you've tried this already then forgive me but have you fully removed the existing FT software from your PC and then downloaded again through the .co.uk site? If you and that still doesn't work then I'd suggest you contact FT support although I'm guessing that they are currently fielding all sorts of questions at present!

Titan or one of the other skins on iPoker work well and have good traffic. The multi-tabling on ipoker works fairly well.

Party I haven't played for a long time and I didn't like their software much, but when the dust settles I would think they are going to be one of the first back into the US market.

Littlewoods or 888.com are both worth looking at, multi-tabling was a bit difficult and their software need some improvement but the micro cash tables are very fishy :)

Merge is worth a look as it is now he largest network accepting US players so the traffic should increase.

I also play at Victor Chandler on the Entraction network, great micro cash tables as there are loads of very bad players on there. Down side is their software is really bad for multi-tabling. On FT and PS the tables wanting attention wait for you to finish the action on the focused table, on entraction they just jump in front. So you can be making a decision and suddenly your table disappears behind 2 or 3 others it's really annoying.

Hope some of that helps. :)

I would suggest Cake if you can get on there. Also type rakebackreferrals into google before you sign up so you get all the extra cash bonuses you can possibly get. Interpoker is another good site. If you are able to sign up at Lock I think that would be a good choice too.

What problems did you have with multi-tabling at 888Poker? I've often had 12tables running on there (while on other sites at the same time) & have never experienced any problems at all?
And yes, the micro cash tables are extremely fishy.
It's a bit of a mickey-mouse low buyin site but they do have a decent amount of tables running for micros (& decent number of low buyin MTT's as well... some even with decent structure.. ie. 3,000chips 15min. blinds).

I really didn't like the BB posting when you entered a table. It seemed to either want me to post straight away or I would miss posting it and have to wait another circuit. They may have improved it now because it's been about 6 months since I played.
