what is your fav poker room & why

As the title says...

is it a regular tourny(ies) that you like ?

is it a good cash game ?

you've played there long enough to tag every donkey & their cousin for easy cash ?

the rewards program is good ?


The reason I ask, is that I cashed out a lot of my winnings, & am looking for a new site to play (anything besides merge, hack, spit)

hope to get a lot of responses quick, I got all that cash burning a hole in my pocket

My fave used to be Carbon - great software, pretty small player base so you can get to know a few people and not a bad choice of games and tourneys. However, my computer doesn't seem to like it. The software tends to freeze up on me and the connection drops too often - making it very frustrating.

I also like Everest (mainly European players, but I think it's open to  Canadians) and Poker Royale (on the same network as Poker4ever).

I steer clear of the iPoker sites cos ever since I made a withdrawal I can't seem to find a decent hand for love or money (go figure).

I used to love merge sites (poker.com, carbon ect), but haven't made any money there for a few months.

I like BoDog the best now. I like the variety of ring games there. Usually  you can find 7 card stud limit tables where I can grind out a few buck. Even hi/lo 7 card tables active most of the time. The $10 max PL Omaha tables are fun too.

The only thing I don't like about BoDog is all their tourneys are Hold'Em NL.

I've got to say, Poker Stars is the best imo when it comes to spiffy client and variety.

I like there pay out structure
Lots of tourneys to choose from
Good support

Are they; "bah bah bah, I'm lovin' it"?

I dont have a particular favourite
It depends on what game i am wanting to play

For cash games there are plenty that offer a decent bonus which are quite easy to obtain

I prefer the multi table sit n goes to MTTs so i suppose Stars and FT are the best for them

Have you thought about looking for a rakeback deal anywhere

Den, I'm more loking for tournies, so i guess i should check closer @ PS & FT

Stu, close baby, but no cigar, is this a good hint :

ATM I`m mostly playing at Stars. I tend to play the "strange" games, 2-7 triple draw, the 8-games, HORSE  and 7 Stud8b. Stars has by far the most of these types of games and the tournament structure is excellent.

AP has a very generous payout structure but it doesn`t seem to have that many regular MTTs. Too many sats and turbos imo. A shame because I quite like the site.

Tilt has plenty of variety and again a great structure.

If you`re looking for value it might be worth a small deposit on Minted. I looked on there the other day and there were tons of GTD tournies that were offering extra value. Despite the small player base the network has been around since 2004 so it must have some integrity.
Ramster

I think Minted is on the same network (everleaf) as P4E
It is a good little network.
Its a pity that even though it is open to Americans its still very low traffic
Might be ripe for the OFC/GG

Doyles roonm on cake   I like this week becasuer of there douybvle up and small buy in seem to be somewhat easy
KITYKATS

Full Tilt I like all the different games types they have I like the knock out tourneys the most
PoolDemon

still haven't found what I'm looking for...(hey that would be a great song...)

thanks for the replies all  
addam00

to be honest mine changes from few  week to few weeks
PoolDemon

that's prolly my problem too Adam, some weeks I'd like to play an Omaha SnG, other weeks an MTT NLTH...some sites have a good one, then you need another site for the other...I get too bored easy...

hey I know, i should play where mura does  
L0gan

I think cake is a good option for MTTs Pool, daily guaranteed tourneys but not the big fields like stars or fulltilt, and also have good Sit & Go's with NLHE and Omaha H/L, they got rake back, and good deposit bonus that are pay in $10's ( easy to clear).

Stars is fine but too many people in the Mtts.

I dont like Fulltilt.
