Best and safest Online Poker site.

[Timberfan]

Hi:
I am an American living in Virginia. I am trying to get started playing Online Poker (not Video Poker), but I cannot find a reliable, top-notch site. Maybe Betonline, maybe Pokerstars, maybe cardplayer.com? What should I watch out for? I am suffering from Internet overload. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Timberfan.

Hey Timberfan. Welcome to FTR!

We have a page here for US Friendly Poker Rooms. I recommend Americas Cardroom because of their good reputation for cash outs and how they'll help you with making a deposit if you're having trouble. They also have 27 percent rakeback and a good selection of tournaments.

Let me know how it works out for you or if there's anything else I can help you with!

For USA I would strongly recommend ACR/BCP and bodog. Both of those sites have very reliable cashout procedures. If you are looking for some good freerolls the freebuy series on ACR/BCP starts this week. Good luck with your choice!
