I currently play 10NL full ring. If anyone else here is at this level, where do you play and why?

Im from USA so my options are somewhat limited. I like UB with their reloads and RB. Anyone here play at Stars or AP??

UB seems kind of tight and RB at my level isn't worth much. Maybe there are real loose games elsewhere.

Thanks for any ideas.

(The rake at FTP is brutal at 10nl)

UB has stackable bonuses plus weekly points Promos ( if you played 10k hands a week at $10nl you'd get $50 bonus) and rakeback ($2-3 every 1k hands). All in all the bonuses can add up to about $17 every 1k hands which is a huge winrate without your actual poker winnings.

I play at Bodog, almost entirely because they accept American players.

The 10NL full ring seems easy to beat. There's usually one or two players at each table trying hard to give you their money.

I haven't made a deposit in a while, but Bodog used to give a 10% deposit bonus on all deposits. I'm not sure if they still do this, but it was nice.

I play at absolute, I think the promo right now is they match your initial deposit up to $250 maybe? The full ring at AP is only 9 player max but I deposited $25 in january and found 10NL it very easily beatable so now I'm at 25NL. Also, i recently started getting rakeback at like 30% which I think is the highest you're going to get most places, but I haven't really played many other sites to compare it too. Rakeback anywhere at 10NL is going to be tough I think

I play $10 ring at Pokerwize. They are offering a $100 bonus for any deposit. It'll take a while to clear but the games are so fcking fishy you wont care. Ops will call you atw with ace high. Once you get to know who the regs are you should be able to clean up np.

It is 3d though (I know many dont like that) but the hands/hour is the same as 2d and I 4-table there with no hassles. Any more than four would prob be sloppy.

Good luck wherever you choose to play!

i may try Bodog, if i were you. but you should be able to beat ANY $10 game you can find.

just dont get too fancy with your cards/moves. stick to ABC.
LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

AP is great, a total joke, if you can play six max. Even if you can't play six max, your full ring game will do great there.

Plus you can play 200BB deep anytime you want, and it just doesn't get better than that.

To be honest, I forgot to enter the bonus code when i first deposited but it didn't matter too much because I only bought in for $25. On the other hand, from what I understand it, you need to see only 75 raked flops (minimum pot of $0.50) for every $10 in bonus ( can anyone confirm this?) which sounds incredibly easy to do. And like sejje said, you can buy in for 200 x BB which i believe is twice more than other sites. This is great when you're playing for stacks.

I think that the minimum rake is $0.50, so the pot needs to hit $10, plus you need to contribute to the pot to get a bonus point.

I Played the PokerStars 10NL for a long time, I liked it, No rake back, and the FPP took forever to accumulate, but I took BigSpenda's advice and went to the 25NL and Holy Shit!!My win rate when up dramatically!! It's like free money some nights.
3 3 3 I'm only half evil.

yeah thanks i knew mine didn't sound right, although i said you need to see the flop. that would make it a whole lot harder to clear bonus at 10NL but not all that bad at 25NL

it s hard, or next to impossible, to clear a bonus at 10 NL anywhere. its just not in the house's interest to have you play that low.

25 is tough enough. 50 gets respectable, and 100 gets fairly quick just about anywhere. but you need to beat 25 before trying 50, or god forbid 100. i'm not big on passing traffic to other places, but there are sites that will give hourly clearing rates at different sites. i dont think they are that accurate, but say, hypothetically, you see one site clears at $1/hour per table at the 25 NL level, and another clears at $5/hr per table, and you can get a good feel for where you can clear a bonus the fastest.

Ah, the memories.

I remember when bodog was MY goldmine. The 200NL games play like the 10NL games now. Still good to know that the 10NL games at least, are still beatable.
