I am currently grinding 10NL on Stars, but feel like I'd be better off getting rakeback at a site like Cake. I'm in the U.S. so my options are fairly limited.

What sucks is that PT3/HEM don't support Cake nor will they because of Cake's stance against HUDs. I really like to be able to track my results and analyze my game. I do know there is at least one program out there that converts Cake HHs into Stars so that you can import them, but it's $50 and just seems kinda iffy to me.

I would move over to full tilt but already have an account there before I knew about rakeback. Just wondering if anyone plays on Cake or has any suggestions in general. Is grinding 10NL on Stars a good idea? I know the VIP points or whatever are their form of rakeback, but there's no way that could match the 33% or so that you can get on Cake, at least not playing 10NL.

Yeah, that's looking like my best option. Unfortunately, I despise these people and really don't want to give them my money. But Cereus does look like my best option.

Why do you despise Cereus? Also what poker skins use the Cereus network?
The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

Cereus is AP and UB. I just hate the way they handled the super user scandal, as well as how they handled Helmuth being shipped a pot that he lost. They just seem like assholes.

lol

I considered this approach, but it wasn't necessary in the end. They tied me to the affiliate rakebackpros after I withdrew my bankroll.

I can't post links yet, so type into google:

Official thread for RakebackPros discussion and RB for existing FT accounts

and i think the second result at twoplustwo forums is what you want
