Best Poker site

mise_me_fein

What do you guys think is the best one?

I started out on Paddy Power and Noble Poker and all that cr*p but since going to 888.com I can't really see myself go anywhere else.

I know some uses Party Poker...any views?

Partypoker has great software, and from what I hear, soft cash games.
The problem for me is I can't seem to get my hands on rakeback for it.

Favourite site is Stars, if they had rakeback I'd never leave.

Can't get comfortable at a site at the moment though. The IPoker software tilts me something awful.
Am considering going back to Stars, as I've just had a significant downswing and want to rebuild and I love that site, but the lack of rakeback is really putting me off. It's looking like FullTilt again at the moment, which is overall an excellent site bar the fact that the players are a slight bit tougher than IPoker.

I'm comparing it to IPoker (possibly the worst software around atm imo)...

I doubt this will be a popular opinion but I really like Prima.

I like the button and table layout, I personally find the lobby very easy to use.
You can datamine and lots of the skins let you open 10tables at a time.

Pahud works easily with it too.
There's also RB on some sites (or was anyway)
Fairly big player base too.

I dislike the lack of resizeable tables however.

Yeah ipoker software is terrible the developers are incompetent thats for sure. but the games are pretty soft. Pokerstars has the best software by a mile, no others come anyway close. Fulltilt software is good but takes up more processor power, party poker is good too software-wise, prob the third best after stars and full tilt. Prima is ok, not a huge fan but again software is better than ipoker imo.

I liked party's software too, also it has more mods/ahk scripts/ extra software made for it than any other site, which is a big plus.

UB has the best software its just a pity their site is dead and their customer service regarding withdrawals is the worst I've witnessed and heard about.

If OP plays tourneys then stick to stars or full tilt nothing beats their structure,# of players and selection for any buyin.

personally I love Full Tilt, I think there software is excellent, they have a very wide range of games, it can be a tough grind to make any money, there have to be easier sites out there

Wow, I thought most people were using 888.com/Pacific Poker like me. I thought this was meant to be one of the biggest sites.

I'll have to check out Party Poker and Full Tilt.

Do they accept Laser?

O/T, which of moneybookers/neteller/e passport the quickest/best to use?

Mr.Plough

i only use moneybookers as neteller wouldnt accept my particular laser. it takes a few days to set up but once its done they're pretty good.

According to Pokersitescout http://www.pokersitescout.com/ Pacific Poker comes in a fairly low 13th. It's one of the few sites/networks I have never played on. These days I play 95%+ of the time on just the top 6 networks/sites.

Ipoker software is awful agreed, some trivial looking bugs have been there for ages, but the standard of play isn't great there which keeps people on it.

Some of the better sites like Pokerstars and Full-Tilt have a large american base, though this used to be good news, since the anti-gambling legislation was brought in in the States, a lot of the crap american players are now gone and so these sites tend to have tougher games.

Does it take long for money to get from a site back to your laser card? thx!

Mr.Plough

usually about 2 days from site to moneybookers, then the same again from moneybookers to your account. so 4 days give or take

Poker stars is huge. Well worth installing. If you are into STT's they fill up pretty rapid and you will always get games. Their MTT structures are pretty good to.

Great software too.

I will take down that 180 player cheap ass'd STT one day....
