Should you play many pokers sites or prefer just one?

If someone wants to win jackpot prize with jackpot freeroll series then he should play many sites for example. I don't have any problem with it. I played 888 poker and pokerstars, ant years ago Everest poker, so it's not strange for me.

You need to play on different sites. These are different promotions, different rakeback amounts, different grids of games and tournaments. I also noticed that a good player plays successfully in almost any poker room you wrote about.

I play the same 4 sites as OP, and I think it's worthwhile playing multiple sites as you have more promotions and freerolls, and more games on offer at all times of the day. If you only played unibet for example, the choice of games would be limited at certain times. However with the way the rakeback deals are structured, I think you may be better off with picking one to be your primary room and playing most of your poker there, and just use the others for promotions.

You can try, until you feel comfortable with 1 room

Obviously it’s better to play on numerous sites, that way you can take advantage of more freerolls

It took 29 posts to mention the rakeback benefits. Some sites have good bonus structures and some have none. If you play a significant amount, it might make sense to stick with the site that provides the best "benefits".

I would also think that the player pool is a very important element to where you play. I have gotten very different ROI results at different sites, either due to player skills, or different RNG tendencies. You will only know this if you are tracking your results diligently. Playing with familiar players will also allow you to use that knowledge in the game, rather than constantly playing against players that you have no tendency history with.

Good luck and God Bless

Playing on one site could get annoying, especially if you are playing everyday day. mixing it up a little with 2 to 3 sites would be ideal to help mix up some luck. Good luck out there and keep grinding

Spread it around, more sites, more opportunities..

My option is to stay away from focusing all on one site. If you play more than one site, the odds of their tourneys fitting into your schedule increase.

i stick to 2 sites

SwC poker...100% bitcoin site...for making money, and unlike other rooms which take your btc and convert them into $$, SwC keeps your roll in btc...so as btc goes up in value, you make the profit...not the poker room. ( caveat...of course the price of btc can decrease too). I play mostly 50/100 nlhe, $10-$30 tourneys, and micro open face chinese there.

I also play stars for micro stakes...to teach my 9 year old son, cc freerolls, and micro large field mtts.

I'm not a fan of spreading my roll, time, and energy over lots of sites...but i can kind of understand people who do.

I play on one site. Don’t know if there’s a difference between site’s, but I’ve been on one, and haven’t changed yet.

If you're a good professional player earing decent money, then I guess you should better stick to only one site, the most one you prefer. Or maybe two sites to play at. No need to run around from site to site if you can make stable profit in one place.
But if you want to start from scratch or low bankroll, playing frerolls as mush as possible to sweeten your bankroll via them, then you need to play at as much sites as you can.
That's my point.

I am in the US and just got back into poker so currently I am only playing on ACR. However sports betting just became legal in my state (Iowa) and I play on multiple betting sites because they each offer different things that I enjoy and like and sometimes give me better odds for the same bet. I think you can really relate this to poker as well. Game selection is key so I think in order to maximize value it makes sense to play at multiple sites for certain games/tournaments if you have an edge in those specific games.
