I have recently decided to switch from tourn to ring. I have been dissapointed my FT not having a rakeback program for account holders that signed up directly with their site. I have been thinking of taking my money out of FT and moving to another site to get a bonus and rakeback with it. Does this see like a good move or should I just shut up and take the rake? I like FT but I can I am thinking I can always just go back if I don't like the new site. The only sites that look interesting, that I haven't been at before, are cake, walker, and G2G. It just seems no rakeback is just leaving money out there that I don't have to, plus a deposit bonus is always welcome. I will have about 150 to deposit after pulling out of FT so I will start with 5NL. I play mainly evenings 5-6 days a week. Usually about 2-3 hours Mon-Sat and about 6 on Sundays. I like Full ring NL and am interested in getting into Limit as well. Does anyone know these sites or can suggest a better one to look at?

Really depends on the effective rake, which was ridiculously high for 10NL @FTP, but I think they adjusted it a bit when they started to offer 5Nl and 2NL... I would go with whoever charges less rake, both are fine regarding software and player base.

Goto http://www.tagpoker.co.uk/ they may be able to get you rake back on your exsiting FT account, or just sign up a new FT account. FT only has 27% rakeback & I have no idea what intervals its paid back. I like the rakeback on Carbon ( pays out every day at midnight ), but you cant export Hand Histories, so Ive been thinking of moving to FT as well.

Thanks to everyone for their feedback. Good advice Oskar.
This thread could prob be locked now unless someone thinks it will be beneficial to other people to remain open.

This
I emailed PS to get my hand history and when they looked into my account they saw another I had created years ago and totally forgot about. They let this one slide, understanding it was a simple mistake, but I almost got my account closed and money suspended. So I would not suggest this either.

I personally like Bodog, but it doesn't have rakeback.

I am becoming more a fan of UB lately.
Their loyalty program is great and there are many satelite tournaments you can enter using your points.
The rake seems to be a bit more than Stars, but you can join rakeback on their even with an existing account.
