The odds for getting even 10% of the bonuses they advertise are extremely thin and by using some of these bonus codes it could actually make withdrawing more difficult - Sometimes they will force you to play up to 12 x's the amount of the bonus before you can make your first withdrawal.

If I were you I would download a few, check out the differences and make a deposit based on where you are most comfortable - Do NOT choose based on advertised bonuses as again, they are gimmicks and false advertising -

I advise you not to rush to the first deposit and play back on freerolls.888 PS

I am doing so on acr and bet online. I can't play 888 it says i need to be in New Jersey to play real money. I am in Ca.
any other place of your choice you would recommend.

Thanks you, for posting.

Im not sure what sites you have access too - I have played at almost all from partypoker, 888, ACR, Carbon etc...

Currently, in NY I am down to few options. Carbon is ok and has a mobile platform - Bovada has Zoom poker that I like but mostly I have been at Betonline - decent tournaments and their payouts cant be beat - As long as you deposit via bitcoin you can withdraw and have money in hand in less than 24 hours (or at least this was my case a few days ago).

**I would have recommended Americas Card Room but lately their customer support has been getting a ton of complaints - Most recently I actually had a rep tell me that a tournament I was in for almost 4 hours before it crashed never even played - even after showing explicit proof he would not back down from his claim - They wont take responsibility for any issues so be careful there or Black Chip Poker as they are on the same Network.

Different sites offer different things so download a few and see what you like - Read up here as people often give great feedback. If I had to pick today I would play at Betonline (unless you have access to party poker)

Hope this helps

Would just say ACR cash games at their stakes they are 2 levels ahead at least in terms of skill level of other sites until small stakes.

Right now PS has a 100% bonus deposit up to $600 but in order to get the bonus you need to play many hands to gain points which go towards accumulating your bonus in $10 increments. Now if you lose your shirt playing before you gain all the points (which is a very likely scenario) then you'll never collect your full bonus. So I agree with elitenuts that the bonuses are generally very hard to achieve.
