Hi all,

I'm a newbie to this forum,

Over this past few weeks my passion for poker has reignited and I've been searching through different sites to play online and checking out YouTube to find the best poker site out there at the minute.

Played mostly on pokerstars about 15 years ago but would I be correct to say GGpoker is now the place to play?

Hello! Welcome to us, you have made a wise choice! Here you will find everything you need! As for the poker rooms, I only play on PS, it has all the games that I like. Good luck and see you at the game table!

You are wrong. There are many poker rooms that are great for playing. Each room has its advantages and disadvantages. It all depends on what you are looking for. Regular MTTs with a small number of players? Go to unibet for example. Big MTT? Go to PokerStars, GGPoker or party poker. And if you are a cash player, GGPoker is not very profitable as GGPoker also takes a rake pre-flop.

Its more about where you are living and playing than what is the best site out there. I would look at what available and then look and ask whats best to play. Its not always easy too. Where I would like to play I cant and that maybe your problem as well. Best of luck to you.

I think it depends of what do you want to play, if cash games or MTT's and how much do you want to invest. If you are a micro-small stakes cash games player, I would suggest to play in 888poker because of their promotions, if small-medium stakes I prefer BCP because of their rakeback. If it's MTT's I still prefer PokerStars.

When you are a new CardsChat member, you get a bronze level. If you plan to build a bankroll with the help of freerolls, then you'd better focus in this case on poker rooms where there are more games for the bronze level.

Thank you everyone, it seems pokerstars would be the first stop but they have blocked my account and i can't open a new one as details are tied to the blocked account. I have sent maybe 5 online messages to the the chat service and honestly think it's a dead end. I am taking it slowly to ease back in and want to enjoy my playing rather than dive in at the deep end. I also seen one of you posted a link to sharpen ones skills, it's much appreciated.

Hope to beat you all soon haha:p

It really depends on where you live. Any questions regarding the best places to play online should always give a location to get correct answers. Honestly, any answers to your question would have to just be lucky to be correct because it's impossible to answer without knowing your location. Maybe I missed something but I was unable to determine where you are and what sites would be available.

Hello and welcome! My favorite formats have been microstakes multi-table sit and go's and MTT, and PokerStars always has had the On Demand 18-45 format that I enjoy. In terms of field, I have found 888 and partypoker the softest.
