Built $30 into $75 thanks to Absolute Poker through decent play and a big bonus. I'm wondering what would be the next best site to go to to earn some decent bonus money while playing? I'm trying to get away from AP and try other sites because the bonus took a while to clear due to the lack of multitable ability. I have been to bonuswohres.com and they suggest PokerRoom or Interpoker - anyone tried these or have other suggestions?

UB's bonuses are not necessarily the most generous (although they often have 50% of deposit specials running), but definitely the most convenient.
You can take as long as you want to clear them, and can play 3 tables at a time. None of this "I gotta play poker for 5 hours tonight so I can clear the bonus!!" You can just play your regular game, and your bonus money will trickle in (it trickles in a bit at a time, too, not all in one shot.)
Just my $.02. Depends what you prefer.

The popular wisdom is that one shouldn't wade into a fat welcome bonus unless one has enough bankroll to max-out the bonus award. $75 bank roll? Stay where you are until you have about $400 for Pacific.
Or, if you must change rooms from AB, some Prima rooms offer lower bonuses, but you generally have to play above the lowest limit tables to earn the bonus. Poker Stars offers occassionally offers some tough bonuses that are as tough to earn as AB. Eurobet is the Party poker skin that has lowest welcome bonus -- consider signing up for rakeback at Eurobet, as you will eventually earn some additional funds on your rake.

Thanks for the advice. Pumped some more into AB after quickly trying out PokerRoom and not liking it at all (but I made a quick $10). I'll clear that, get it up slowly to (hopefully) about $200 and then go from there.

I agree that you should stick with Absolute but don't judge Poker Room to quickly. The competition is soft in general and for me the software is second to none, I think its a question of what people are familiar with.
