Anyone can compare competition (skill of players) between 24hpoker and Unibet poker (both anonymous tables and normal?
1. Which game type you play? SNG (double or nothing)
2. Which limit do you play? 5$ and 10$
3. Fullring.
4. How much do you play? (I play somewhere around 10+ hours a week)
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
1. Which game type you play? No limit, rare tourneys
2. Which limit do you play? at the moment at micro, but i am rising fast and constant
3. Short handed or full ring tables, or even Heads-Up? Full tables
4. How much do you play? 2-4 hours a day
Im currently playing on Pokerstars, but I'd like to try new room, cause i forgot to enter Pokerstrat bonus code
Hey Mednise,
The good news is:
with No-Limit on Micros, you have plenty of choice.
For your alternative poker room to play on, of course there's the usual suspects such as PartyPoker & iPoker-Skins such as William Hill. They have a decent software and plenty of No-Limit micro/low limit traffic.
But my personal recommendation would be 888poker. They are the success story of the year - they experienced phenomenal growth over the last 12 months since they switched to their new software & made some aggressive marketing campaigns that brought loads of players back.
With their focus on recreational players, 888poker is especially strong on the lower limits.
In total they are ranked #4 behind PokerStars, PartyPoker and iPoker traffic-wise - but on Full Tables (7-10 seats/table) No-Limit $.05/$.10 (NL10), they are ranked #2!
If you want to try out 888poker without risking your own money, you might be elegible for their free $8 offer - depends on your country. Have a look!
Best,
Lutz
Hello, looking for some room where I can grind PLO cash games at micro stakes, and NLHE SNGo's (all kinds, though I prefer turbos), for cash games i like 6-max, tourneys don't matter.
I'd play smth like 10-15h per week. Mostly during the day time (Europe).
Low rake and lots of fish is always nice, of course
And it would be better if site is tracked by pokerstrategy
Thank you for your time

Apologies then, I thought that you were an Italian player, which would have meant you wouldnt be allowed to play on .com rooms. Unless you move abroad of course
Well for 20 tabling, the only real place to support it is Stars. You wont get a huge amount of rakeback and the tables are tougher than anywhere else, but they do have consistently excellent traffic and software.An alternative to Stars would be to sign up at say Titan AND at PKR and run both poker clients at the same time. Titan will give you a really good first deposit bonus, and the traffic for SnGs on iPoker isnt that bad (I play on Betfred occasionally) plus another 15-20% from their VIP system. Then you could also get the FDB at PKR and their 30% flat rakeback.
You will need to run the low resolution PKR client though, otherwise it might make your computer struggle running both.
So I suggest either Stars for the traffic and software, or PKR and Titan for the rakeback and soft tables.

Outside of Stars, the place to go for MTTs and SnGs is typically Ongame (Betfair), though as I recommended above, an alternative here to run 2 poker clients at the same time.
You will get a pretty decent return in terms of rakeback from the Betfair VIP system, their First Deposit Bonus will add about another 30% in your first month and the tables are much softer than Stars.
So I would keep it simple, bump up your win rate and take advantage of the bonuses offered for Betfair

hello,in short: i have just 100E of bankroll so i am thinking to play 2-3h per day (~20h on weekends) s&g, multitable s&g and tournaments.
i am considering to deposit to everest poker couse i asked support and they will try to get me a new deposit offer. all in all - is it fishy (trafic and other stuff) enought?
thanks.P.S. sory for my bad english.
Traffic isnt too bad, but not great for your 20h at the weekend. For the same reasons as I mentioned above, I would recommend Betfair on Ongame. So, good rakeback, good traffic and relatively soft competition.
Personally I wouldnt worry about the Essence system as a SnG player, since it doesnt make any difference to you

I am thinking that for 10 hours a week, you might want to look at a flat rakeback deal for maximum value. For DoN SnGs you will find traffic consistently at most rooms, as they seem to be pretty popular.
So I would generally recommend PKR for your volume and limits. They have lots of DoNs running, they will give you 30% flat and the competition is extremely soft. May take a bit to get used to the software, but once you do you will find that you are getting ITM much more than you would at somewhere like Stars.

PLO is an excellent game ♦
The competition is soft everywhere for it as well. My recommendation would be to give PartyPoker a go, since they have really quite good traffic for PLO at all limits and you will clear their FDB pretty easy.
Most rooms support PLO now, so you could go somewhere like 888 or PKR, but I honestly dont think it will make that much difference. So I would go for the good software offered by Party.

If you want smaller stakes than that, then I would definitely suggest iPoker. PLO rake generation is very similar to SnGs, which means that you would get good rakeback from both William Hill and Titan in terms of the FDB and VIP systems.
The traffic there is good at the lowest stakes (PLO2), though unfortunately I dont have data to indicate whether it is softer than the other rooms offering PLO.
William Hill have rake chase in December, which you would definitely benefit from. See here for details.
1. i play no limit
2. i play micro nl2 to nl10 FR and SH, but mostly FR
3. i play 4-6 hours a day
I'm from canada and the times i play are around 11am till 3pm and 12am till 3am, so i need a room with traffic around then thats not pokerstars or party poker.

Hey Ave,
The times you play make this a tricky question, because in truth I am not sure how much the traffic fluctuates at any given room at different times.
As a general rule of thumb however, I would be suggesting 888 or PKR. As a microstakes player you will not get a lot of value from VIP systems unless you are mass tabling every day. This pushes me to think that the 30% flat offered by PKR is good. The problem with it is that they have high rake for the micros.
So I am thinking that 888 would be better. They have lower rake at the micros (high at the low stakes though) and the competition is super soft. The traffic is one of the fastest growing in the industry and is already close to Party and iPoker. Plus, they are tied to the UK (like say William Hill on iPoker) so I expect that they would have better traffic at the times you need it.
Hope that is useful mate.
Hi Guys.
Here I am again. I was looking for a poker room and one of you helped me a lot. We decided that the best poker room for me was William Hill. I was quite excited. I was waiting couple of month coz I wanted to move up to the limits a little bit to be able to receive higher percentage of Rake back. The time is today and when I download the William Hill software I was so excited. I started filling in my personal details and when I had to put the country that I am from Bulgaria it was not there. I said what the hell. I wrote a message to William Hill Support they answered me:
"Due to changes in our business we have taken the decision not to accept business for Bulgaria. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause you."
So The same thing once again. I am looking for a new poker room. Currently I am playing in Cake but the traffic there is just horrible. I am looking for a room where I am gonna be able to get at least 50% rakeback. I am playing PLO50 6-max 6-tabling. I wanna my new room to have good PLO 6-max traffic. I generate rake about 3K per month at the moment but I hope when I start playing PLO100 I will generate at least 6K rake a month. Please guys help me.
Reagrds.
