Currently playing at party poker 25NL,

have cleared the bonus, and as much as I'd like to take advantage of all the sign up bonus out there I'm tired of bouncing around sites.

however,
Im thinking the RB and sign up bonus at absolute or ultimate bet may be worth a go...

i was thinking sun poker, or a few others but I prefer a decent amount of traffic.

so,
compared to party poker (and their lack of RB), would it be wise to try absolute or UB? if so, which one?

hoping one of them has decent traffic (10,000+)..

lastly, between UB and absolute, which one has softer competition?

ps: if theres a site im missing that has RB and bonus and good soft traffic, please let me know....

I love UBs software... their bonus is retarded. At $25NL you will have to multi-table like a maniac to even have a shot at clearing it in a reasonable time. Which sucks, 'cause they offer pretty frequent reload bonuses which is always nice.

Absolute clears well at $50NL and above. I just didn't like their software as much as UB.

Don't have a TON of table selection at $25NL FR at UB. At $50NL+ you pick up all the bad-beat jackpot tables and there seems to be way more traffic there. That being said, I've never had a problem getting 3-4 tables going -- but if you're big on table selection, you're not going to have much to choose from.

Been too long since I played AP so no comment. I DO miss Party... made $450 from my first MTT win there on a $20+2 tourney buy-in I earned w/ FPP points. But then they got their nuts in a chipper w/ the whole US-ban thing and kicked me the f-ck out!

UB (and i think AP's) rakeback structure changed in the last 6 months so you only get ~1/2 of what you used to. That coupled with the BBJ rake that accounts for losing an extra 2-2.5bb/100 at 50nl makes it a joke to play low stakes there anymore.

ok so UB and Absolute arent worth it...

i guess i just want any site with a bit of soft comp/decent traffic, and bonus/RB.

otherwise im just gonna stick with party... but i hate playing without a bonus or RB..
