I started playing Holdempoker this week and I gotta say, these are the worst players I have found on any site (only played Party, Full Tilt, Absolute, Stars and Sun) - For 25c PL hold em, the max rake is only 50cents and everytime I made a hand I got paid off by some dude with next to nothing...I have been playing FullTilt for the past few months, but this site seems Loaded with bad players...I see $8-15 pots regularly and it seems like 5 or more players seeing the flop even with a 3x BB raise...

I think i'm going to stay here for awhile - Anyone else found this site to be really soft?

It's close to the worst. If I told you the worst I would have to kill you.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

Holdem poker is a PokerRoom skin right? At the micro stakes it's the loosest of the big sites by far in my opinion.

If you want to stick around there are loads of skins with sign up bonuses, and reloads. They take a while, but if u like the tables then maybe it's worth it.

Yeah, you should do Holywoodpoker if you like the network. Bonus clears twice as fast and you can get a RAF that clear at 4X.

I would get you could find someone here whos will be willing to give you a kickback on the RAF to make it even more nice

Pokerroom skins are extra fishy today. I think some college students are bored and decided to try and play poker.

Shhhh, you're giving away my secrets. LOL

I have been playing on the pokerroom skins for months now, I have played on pokerroom, hollywood, holdem, euro, eurobet, and now full contact poker. All are the exact same thing with the same players, so i have tons of stats on all the players. PL25 is a goldmine. Once you build your BR up a bit try out the PL50 and PL100 when they have some players...those are pretty much the same as PL25...only difference is you win more $$ and clear your bonus much faster
In 4 months i have made about $4000 playing those three limits, plus bonus whoring. Sign up for Hollywood poker through Bonuswhores.com and u get monthly reloads.

Im pretty sure the PL$25 on the pokerroom skins is the loosest around. Ive played on 'stars, party, paradise, UB, and Pacific. Pacific is fairly loose, but doesnt have the "players seeing the flop %" that pokerroom has for these limits.

Now if only I can find a site like this for NL100.

I found 50NL at PR to be much tougher than at Party. 100NL at PR is much softer in comparison, although Party is still a bit softer.

Try $50 Pot Limit on PR. Usually only 1 or 2 of these tables open, but both are usually a fish fest with 45%+ players seeing flop. Same goes for $100 PL. On $25 PL every single table (usually about 10-15) has 50% or more players seeing the flop.

But I agree with $50NL being tough, but its like that at every site ive been to. Pacific would be the only site I can think of thats not bad.

thanks guys - I think the first time i went bonus hunting, I went about it the wrong way and messed up 90% of my BR - had to start over when i got down almost $600...I have not played Pokkerroom yet, but it sounds like a big room -

Anyone tried PurpleLounge? I never even heard of that one before, but it's rated high here - i think maybe then or Hollywood next -
