Am I losing money by playing at PartyPoker, since there is no rakeback? I've seen other sites with 30%+ rakeback, but they all seem to be the crappy sites, with low volume, or bad interfaces, etc....
It may be because PartyPoker is where I started, but I feel very comfortable with their interface, and games feel smooth and fast. Is this a stupid reason to stay? Should I be moving my BR to a RakeBack site?

Off topic, but are you really playing with a 3 buy in bankroll?

IMO, no rakeback + party fish > rakeback + rocks.

I have not played at Party for a while due to the old credit card block your account and dont respond to your enquiries type problem so I decided to sign up to Purple Poker (Prima) and William Hill (Crypto) to get a 40% and 30% rakeback respectively which is going well, I still find enough fish to make it interesting. I then found out about the 100% rakeback on World Poker Exchange and have just started playing 3-6 Limit there. I have come across lots of really crap players at this level who are way too aggressive even for shorthanded play so my opinion is that it is worth getting rakeback if you play low limits as I dont believe you are playing against players that are much better than what you see on Party or Stars.
I am sure that some of the players come straight from the sportsbook, casino area of the World Poker Exchange site.
PS I do not work for WPX but just think the 100% rakeback is a great deal.
