Wondering if / where you are playing online poker now that sites are taking their positions. Where are all you party players going to play next?

I was thinking about starting up again at full-tilt with a 27% rakeback deal. Pokerstars may be the biggest, but doesnt offer rakeback.

Trying Stars at least until the end of October, not sure after.

I'm currently at pokespoker.com (PokerRoom skin) 6 tabling 100NL full ring.
Great table selection, the players suck, low rake and 35% rakeback.

I only go back to Party to clear the bonuses they throw at me.

I'm just working on Party Poker and Absolute Poker reloads. The site aren't that great but the players are weak. I think I'll try out a Prima or Pokerroom site with rakeback after I'm done with them.

Poker Stars is the best room but with no bonuses or rakeback and less weaker opponents it's just not worth it.

it seems like most of the replies are from non-usa players. have most of the usa players given up?

UB 100% reload up to 250.

Games seemed pretty rocky today, though.
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

so far it seems comparable to ongame. bonus clears about the same rate, and about same table selection.

I'm a US Player, playing Full Tilt, UB, and Bodog. I may try Absolute again if I can get RB there.

I'm not playing nearly as much as before since the bonus money isn't easy to clear and clears in small increments (it helps that UB's bonus never expires and I have 4 months clear FT's sign-up bonus). Strangely I'm having a little more fun now and playing better. My play got pretty stale methodically churning out the Crypto monthy bonuses; the US poker shakeup actually gave me a little break and time to do some more reading.

Are u just on a laptop? I've found that using a CRT as a secondary monitor vs. a LCD will allow for higher resolutions with the default low-end vidcard in older laptops.
Otherwise of course, when the res is too high a setting for the card you go into pan mode on LCDs.
______
I'm playing FT & finally moved back to Starz.
Bugsy's is an often overlooked site. Much too small for multi-tabling at the same limit/game esp at low limits, (anyone that thinks FT's bonus is hard to clear-STOP reading NOW!), but OK for an additional table or 2 while playing elswhere.
On the other hand small-field tourneys, which can be a plus or a minus depending how u look at it. Currently offering 100% dep bonus , check here at FTR for a signup link.
Of course I have bad days...
Sometimes I'll go a whole day without quads.

 bodog has to be the bets bet right now, but imo you also need an alternative site as you can only 3table.

If your br isnt huge id reccommend either pokeroom and its skins or i-poker both of which have rb deals and good bonuses and soft games.

Im not a fan of stars, but after party sold us all out id like to see stars get most of the aprty traffic. Its a pretty good industry standard for the rest to follow, unlike party was.
