Choosing the right Poker Room for you!

1. Which game type you play? (No limit? Sit & Go? MTT? PLO, Fixed Limit, Other?)

NLH cash games

2. Which limit do you play? (example: NL25, SNG $11, FL .50/1)

NLH2/NLH4

3. Short handed or full ring tables, or even Heads-Up?

SH and FR, don't really care

4. How much do you play? (e.g. I play 3 hours a week, or I generate $1000 rake/month)

Approx. 5 hours a week

5. How many tables do you want to play?

4 to 8 tables - Need a minimum of traffic

6. What are your goals for the next 3+ months?

I'd like to improve my game to eventually get to NL10/NL25, not to make money but just for fun. I'm quite a breakeven player on NL2/NL4 on partypoker. I've heard that some room has a lot of fishs on the micro limits and that ppoker and stard had the best tables at that level. Is it true? Maybe if I switch room I won't be a breakeven player but a winning player.

Hi Gnama,

The games at Pokerstars will have some fish.

The good thing at PokerStars is that the rake is lower. Thus it should be easier for you to have a good winrate.

Hi Dw00d

I suggest you play at William Hill.

They have good traffic for small stakes SNG's and plenty of fish to play against!

With the first deposit bonus you can expect to get 29.5% rakeback plus additional rakeback from the VIP system!

You can always hope around the diferent Ipoker sites and clear the FDB's on each of them!

Good luck

Callum

Hi Muumionu,

I recommend that you play at Unibet.

They have really good software and some of the softest games going right now.

They also offer 30% flat rakeback along with Unibet Plus. Unibet plus takes between 10-20% of your rake and puts it towards a free roll prize pool at the end of the month. 70% of the field gets paid so its extremely easy to cash. Most people are sat out and are kicked after 12 minutes so its really easy to get the extra rakeback ♦

You will also receive a first deposit bonus up to €1k that clears at 20%

Let me know if you have any other questions

Callum

Hello!
I am normally playing cash games 6max NL10, but recently I started to play SNG's, I am playing 7$+ sng's, turbo full-ring. I would like to find a software where I could play at least 4 tables simultaniously, so it has to be popular software, not like titan poker where you have to wait for 15 minutes to start up 1 table.

Hi Benaars,

If you want to get into the games as quick as possible I would recomend playing at PokerStars.

They have the highest traffic so there will be constant games going for you to jump in ♦

Hello, I hope you guys can help.

1. Which game type you play? (No limit? Sit & Go? MTT? PLO, Fixed Limit, Other?)

No limit cashgames, currently playing fastforward tables, but this is not imperative.

2. Which limit do you play? (example: NL25, SNG $11, FL .50/1)

NL10/25

3. Short handed or full ring tables, or even Heads-Up?

SH

4. How much do you play? (e.g. I play 3 hours a week, or I generate $1000 rake/month)

Approx. 20 hours a week

5. How many tables do you want to play?

2-4, depending if fast poker or not.

6. What are your goals for the next 3+ months?

I want to move permanently up to NL50, but currently I want a poker room where I can play NL20 and was wondering where the best was to do this. Additionally a good FDB and rakeback would be a definite plus.

Currently I am registered with Party/WPT, William Hill, Pokerstars and Everest.

Hi Nineshine,

I recommend you stick with Ipoker for the speed tables. They have the best balance of soft players and traffic.

They also have 20nl ♦

So I would suggest trying Titan Poker. This way you can start clearing a new first deposit bonus that adds around 28% rakeback.

Depending how much you rake you can get some decent returns from the VIP system too. More details can be found here on the returns you can expect.

Let me know what you think.

Callum

3. Short handed or full ring tables, or even Heads-Up?

Short Handed

4. How much do you play? (e.g. I play 3 hours a week, or I generate $1000 rake/month)

Currently just getting back in to poker after a year out, looking to play 10-15 hours a week

5. How many tables do you want to play?

up to 4

6. What are your goals for the next 3+ months?

Relearn poker (properly) and hopefully reach NL25

More info
I've just come back after a year off, currently blowing out the cobwebs on 770. Looking for some decent deposit bonuses and fish numbers for when I get back in to it properly

yeaah, it would be great if I could play there, but I have an account there already and it is not tracked via PS, so maybe any other options?

Hi Bennisboy,

If you liked the software on Ipoker then I would suggest playing at William Hill.

They have the same games with the same crazy fish ♦

You will also be eligible for a $2k first deposit bonus that clears at 29.5% to add some extra value while you climb up the VIP system.

Good luck

Callum

Hi Benaars,

In that case I would try out Betfair,

They have tonnes of traffic for SNG's and also have a large influx of fish since they are a bit sports book.

You can also get up to 45% from the first deposit bonus. Depending how much you initially deposit.

Once again with the VIP system it will depend how much you rake. You can get a idea of the returns you can expect here.

Best of luck

Callum

1. Which game type you play? (No limit? Sit & Go? MTT? PLO, Fixed Limit, Other?)

6. What are your goals for the next 3+ months?

Learn, improve, keep working on my game, keep moving to new limits and eventually be able to live from poker

More info

I am working with coach from July11th this year and so far I have moved from Stars 9 and 6 max 1.5$ and 3.5$... I consider myself profitable player for those limits and now its time to move to 5.5$.
My question is - what is the best site that offers best offers for FDP (first deposit bonus), RB (rakeback) and Affiliate races? I will be playing 3000 turneys a month which means I will be raking 1500$. What kind of profit can I expect with such rake when all the other things are combined (without ROI) ?

Thank you in advance and see you at the tables!

1. Which game type you play? (No limit? Sit & Go? MTT? PLO, Fixed Limit, Other?)

NLHE

2. Which limit do you play? (example: NL25, SNG $11, FL .50/1)

NL10-NL25

3. Short handed or full ring tables, or even Heads-Up?

Only SH

4. How much do you play? (e.g. I play 3 hours a week, or I generate $1000 rake/month)

Around 6 hours a day

5. How many tables do you want to play?

Six

6. What are your goals for the next 3+ months?

Move up to NL 100 and be a winning player there.

More Info:

I play on Stars and have played NL2-NL50, max volume on NL 10 and NL16 and best results on these stakes too, crushing NL 10 easily right now ♦ (around 10 bb/100 last 30k hands).

I play whenever I feel like during a day so many times its odd hours. The most important thing for me is having a lot of fish and good software to multi-table, I use table scan turbo to do my table selection and don't really face any problems on Stars as such.

I'll go for supernova next year and want to reach NL 100 or atleast NL 50 till Jan next year and was wondering if I should continue on Stars or go to some other room to boost my roll till the end of this year to ensure I'm atleast rolled for NL 50 before coming back to Stars in Jan.

EDIT: I'm Gold on Pokerstars don't think I'll hit platinum untill I start playing NL 50 on a regular basis.

Hi IvicaIliev77,

For a player of your volume Pokerstars is going to be the clear favourite.

It is very hard to get that much action at any other room. Even so the rake is very low on Pokerstars compared to elsewhere.

Hi Maheepsangari,

I recommend that you play at Unibet.

They have really good software and some of the softest games going right now.

This room will be perfect to help boost your bankroll until the end of the year!

Hi Callum,

Are their a decent number of games running at theses stakes on Unibet at all times? I have played only on Everest other than stars and on Everest at odd times there would be hardly 2-3 tables running sometimes at NL5 when I used to play about 5-6 months ago.
