Ok so I’ve read all the reviews and tried out just about every pokersites that allows US players, but b4 I sink my bank roll into a couple I want to hear from you guys which one ya’ll prefer and why….

I really like pokerhost…a lot, they have daily big time guaranteed tournaments and reasonable buy-in for these, and the cash games are really good but I never hear any of you guys really mention them….do ya’ll know something I don’t about them?

Full Tilt and Bodog are probably next and then pokerhost, but I would just like to hear you guys opinion b4 I sink my BR into any of them…

Hope to hear from you guys…..

What do you want to play?
FullTilt is the only site you can always find a low buy in pot limit cash game.
Ultimate bet has the very best SNG structure out there.
Stars has the most volume overall....
Why not all of them?

I prefer pokerstars - lots of variety and good volume as AG stated. FullTilt is my next favorite.

All others I generally only play CC events at. I have never played at pokerhost.

Pokerhost is notorious for scamming you out of your money. DO NOT DEPOSIT THERE!

Ful-Tilt and Pokerstars are the best pokersites out there. Bo-Dog is a good option as well. If you're going to deposit, take advantage of our Deposit Bonuses here: https://www.cardschat.com/poker-bonuses.php

while i havent had a bad experience with pokerhost (actually placed 6th in a $20 rebuy a few months back & cashed out my $ the same day) i have heard some horror stories.

check what bonuses are currently running and find the one that fits you the best.

Full Tilt has a lot of tourneys & SNG's fill up quickly. Same with PokerStars & a lot of the folks around here get together on ring games at Stars spur of the moment so I keep most of my funds on those sites.

It's a slower blind escalation than most (I think there is an extra level that other sites don't include). You get more "play" since the blinds don't get high in relation to your stack size until later, i.e., it's not an ICM shove fest with 7 people still left.

There is a link to the structure from this page.
