I am so sick of Ultimate Bet. I am ready toi take all my money out and try another site. It seems that everytime I have the best hand I always get beat by someone holding something very weak. Whats a good site with a good deposit bonus that is easy to acquire and a low deposit? I just downloaded Full Tilt and I heard it is a good site. I also was considering Noble, but I am not completely sure. Can anyone help a broke college student?

Noble has been really working on their site, adding many incentives, I would check their withdrawl restrictions before you deposit, if they are offering bonuses, and let us know how it goes. They had mass freerolls a couple weekends ago, one starting every 15 min but there were server problems. Not sure if anyone played them here or not.

Thanks!

Thanks for the information. I am going to download Noble right now. I like to play $5-10 NL hold em tournaments. But, sometimes I played 1$ tourneys and .01/.02 or .05/.10 NL holdem tables. Are any of these types of tables offered on any other site? Sometimes I like to play at smaller stakes for practice because I think Play Chips are ridiculous because of the way people play. It's like playing against a mindless computer. I'll try Noble if the deposit is good, and what ammount if the deposit bonus, is it 100%? Also, is there a buddy list offered?

THANKS! Mike

As far as deposit bonuses go, FullTilt has the largest in the industry with $600.

Be more aggressive with that great hand and the people with the worse cards will fold. ;) Maybe.

Anyway, I've also heard great stuff about Noble. I just switched to UB. I love it there. After I won some money from that freeroll I realized I love their tourney system. I've only gotten a chance to play once so far since the freeroll (I've been working like crazy. :( ) but I did win that Sit & Go so no complaining.

If you want to play side games though that's a different issue. I've only played on Pstars or PartyP for those and I don't like either. I'm much better in tourneys than I am at side games so I can't offer you much advice aside from what you've already heard from every body else. I think soon I may sign up with Noble Poker and make a hefty deposit. :D At a 100% deposit bonus there's absolutely no reason not to sign up there! :)

Depends what your after really, freerolls, tournaments, sit and go, cash games, stud, omaha etc

Each site had their advantages over each other, there is no single best site for everything (mores the pity)

Another thing I nearly always look out for is methods of cashing in and out, if I can't use my debit card straight into my bank account then I don't usually bother.

Paradise has cool graphics and is a real sweet site. They have TONS of tourneys to play.

Probably my favorite - at this time.

I like PokerHost - but the freerolls are a rip-off. You have to play too high of a number of raked hands to get back you "free" money. Close to 500 hands at a $1 table per $100 of "free" money.

Not really worth it.

I quite like paradise and i havent played at noble so cant pass judgement

paradise may take some time to download the software but if you want to practice before playing for real money its pretty good, and theres often quite a few freerolls that ive played in - so all in all its good value for money.

Best Site

Best site I have found so far is Noble low deposit limit easy monmey at the ring games the deposit bonus is 100% but not sure exactly how to aquire it I think you only get raked hands at .25 blinds
I play smaller tables the fish are easier to fry

My favorites are Pokerroom.com and Paradise.com I tend to win regularly at those two sites and have had no problems with money in or out. I use Netteller.

PS - Just came in 1st at Paradise 7-Card Stud. ($79.00) since I only play 1-10 dollar games I am good for a good long time.

I like Pokerroom because you can make notes on everyone you play. And if you play them again the notes stay with them. Helps you remember who are the jerks and who is really good. I usually look at table before sitting down.

I am going to say pokerstars.com because it gives you the most freeroll tournaments in one day and gives you the most games with the most tables. If you have not tried pokerstars download it now and give it a try.

It may just be me but I have found that the best players are at full tilt . I don't seem to get beat by those mid hands when I play my hand right ther are those dumb luck lose agr players at all sites but I have found full tilt's bad beats to be against at least a good starting hand most of the time . ALSO there tourneys are 8 seats insted of 10 so the tight agressive player can make the final 3 900 0/0 of the time :party: :party: :party:

I like pokerstars for the high traffic (tons of people for sit/go tournaments). I also like the simple graphics (I DO NOT like the sites with animated players).

Pokerstars is great for the small limit table games they have many .01/.02 without any rake of course. They dont give out any new deposit bonus, but about every other month they give 20% deposit bonus. PokerHost freerolls are great, except you better make a deposit first or they wont let you withdraw your winnings without major headaches.
