What Poker Site Do you like the best.
 
I like Full Tilt the best because of their amazing graphics but I think the site is very rigged, and I'm looking into alternative websites. Please tell me some good ones that are out there. Maybe PokerStars?

Talking Poker 11-15-05 11:54 PM

1. It's not rigged.
2. See list:

EaglesPlaya 11-15-05 11:58 PM

Alright.
 
Thanks for that list. Its going to be very helpful. Thanks.

no major poker site is rigged. why would they risk losing it all when they already have a legal license to print money as it is? :D

personally, i like best, and only play on, pokerstars. IMHO best software with user options, excellent support, and best NLHE tourney choices which is what i play...

Post-count padding, anyone?

Kidding.

And TP don't worry about me padding my own count. I can't play in the freeroll anyway. I don't think.

Edit: Half-kidding.

Stars is my favorite - maybe cuz thats the only one i have $ on tho ?
no its a great site all around - it will rule all sites one day .

nflchad 11-16-05 01:29 AM

Stars has the best software, but the lack of rakeback and tight cash games keep me away, the tourneys are excellent and plenty fishy.

Party has a nice clean layout that I kind of like and the fish are abundant. The downside would be that their support is some of the worst I've ever experienced.

The Prima sites while not great have a lot going for them, good software, weak players (although not enough of them and maybe fewer at higher stakes), good customer service, and high rakeback.

Absolute is my least favorite site by far, I really like the software but they have the tightest games that I've ever played in and their constant bonus offers are essentially just a low % rakeback .

Reel Deal 11-16-05 09:39 AM

For abundant fish at cash tables: Bodog, Party, Titan and Noble

Good/easy to clear bonuses: bet365

Good tournaments: Stars, Pokerroom, UB

my opinion
 
im kinda late on this but here are my favorites. I might have played more sites on here then anyone from the big ones to the very small ones.


tornies- pokerstars, I think pokerstars has the best tornies around from the small buyins to the very big ones.

cash games- Party poker, The most bad players around which make the cash games very good for any halfway decent player

fun games- there are alot of sites that offer some good old fun play but I like Jetset the most here.

I have also played alot of sites that I really cant stand, pacific poker I cant stand I think their interface is terrible and there support is really really bad. I really dont like any of the cryptic sites out there.

as for good support I like pokerstars and jetset they are very fast and friendly both systems offer great speed on their cashouts. Never dealt with party pokers support but I heae its pretty good the only complaint I have about party is that they dont offer firepay withdraws. If I had to put money in a system It would be a real toss up between pokerstars and jetset, I would probolly put it in jetset 1st seeing as I have alot of "friends" on that site and enjoy playing with them.

jillaj 11-19-05 11:43 AM

Someone is messing with you. Not only do they not help their customers in any way at all, the support doesn't even speak english. Makes it difficult when trying to get a problem smoothed out.

akajeff 11-21-05 03:11 PM

Pokerstars is definitely my favourite except the occasional bad beats make it tough to handle. I play on Absolute Poker and it is a fairly good site as well. For apperance and reputation I give it to Pokerstars.

JPunk66 11-21-05 06:12 PM

I gutta say pokerstars, i like the set up, games, and players (havent seen any pissy people) the best even tho i see suckouts 24/7 on there haha, but i do also like absolute poker and full tilt, they both have good players and set ups

Talking Poker 11-21-05 07:27 PM

If someone ever find a poker site where the best hand preflop always wins (in other words, no bad beats), please let me know. Because that site will obviously be "rigged," and I will never, ever, ever play there.

wdson01 11-21-05 08:12 PM

i just love playing on stars because of their big person tournies and pots. ive been playing on full tilt for quite some time now and i dont think you receive bad beats nearly as much as you do on stars. but i like full tilt because of their small person tournies and i think i play better on that site too (who knows?)

Celtsoxpats 11-21-05 09:01 PM

PokerStars is by far the best. It has great play and real money ring tables. The tournaments are also amazing.

akajeff 11-24-05 04:26 PM


Yes this is also my favourite site. the only reason why people think it is rigged is as follows:
Online Poker is much faster, meaning more hands dealt, meaning more variety meaning more bad beats.
The more hands dealt and bad beats make people get on tilt and believe its rigged.

Pokerstars and Absolute poker!

iwinurmoney 11-25-05 09:30 PM

i really enjoy pokerstars and id reccomend it to you over anything else ive tried.

TDuck 11-25-05 10:08 PM

poker stars
 
Poker Stars is the best just look at the representation at the world series winners of 2 out of 3

Batman810 11-26-05 12:06 AM

most of the pros represent pokerstars so it must be pretty good and i played on fulltilt and it was terrible, it seemed like it was rigged whenever i got a good hand

nflchad 11-26-05 08:04 AM

Whats really weird is that there have been more than 3 WSOP championships. Besides PS has 4 McEvoy, Raymer, C. Money, and now Hachem.

whiteivy 11-26-05 10:28 AM

Poker Pages
 
My personal favorite is Poker Pages, because if you play for fun, you are able to build up BBP points (Bugsy Points), and you can exchange them out for 10 real dollars if you can get 1000 of them. This is an easy way to get money without even depositing!

Zybomb 11-26-05 03:46 PM

:eek: :eek: :confused: :eek:

You mean Chris Moneymaker didn't win the first WSOP in 2003?!?!?!!?

Johnny Moss isn't an urban legend??? :eek:

olysports 11-26-05 06:28 PM

MY top 3 sites are pokerstars, absolute poker, and jetset poker. I like pokerstars b/c they offer the most variety in tournaments and sitngos, absolute poker b/c of the amount of freerolls there and there money gauranteed tournies, and jetset b/c of there head hunter tournies.

thrash1294 11-26-05 11:03 PM

best overlay for tournaments is pokerchamps
alsoright now 100% bonus and have till march 2006 to make the requirment.
only problem is cash games over $1 limits are few players.2c 4c nl tbles are always packed and loose.

HEwong 11-26-05 11:15 PM

my favorite and only favorite site is pokerstars. the deposit bonous isnt really why you should play a site. the deposit bonous is to attract money hungry people. i choose pokerstars b/c of the number of skilled people. i go for the game first then the money. if you put the money first before the game,in my opinion, you will never be able to fully enjoy and appreciate the game itself.

Atticus01 11-26-05 11:58 PM

My 2 favorite poker sites are definetly PokerStars and Paradise Poker. Interesting, i didnt see anyone else say anything about Paradise Poker above.

chrisash 11-28-05 04:11 PM

pokerstars here

they got the best set up and graphics yet

coolieo69er 11-28-05 06:28 PM

I would have to say my favourite would have to be pokerstars. I enjoy the smooth graphics and fluent gamplay. I have tried other sites most arent as fast gameplay wise and the graphics get tiring on ur eyes after while. The only one that I can say come close to stars is tilt. Mostly because of the wide range of pros they have on it. I have mixed it up with a couple myself.

JDMcNugent7 11-28-05 06:30 PM

lol wuts ur name on Tilt and wut pros have u been playing with ?

X-Longshot-X 11-28-05 06:33 PM

I like pokerstars the best, however, when i can no longer stand the bad beats i go over to full tilt poker, i like the fact that u can sit with a pro and know ur playing one, i like what u can get with the FPP there, there are some nice jerseys and shirts there also have some nice hats

coolieo69er 11-28-05 10:14 PM

My name is coolieo69er and I played with CHris Ferguson in a freeroll and I played with Jennifer Harmen in a low limits cash game.

best poker site
 
let me tell you that i play on alot of didderent sites and i personally think that a few sites are good for different reasons.

1. ultimate bet- they have nice tables, if you enjoy nice tabes and want to site on a nice table then the graphics on ultimate bet is the best. Also they have cool competions and pleny of guarentees, the players are tight and pretty good.

2.Prima poker- prima poker in my opinion is the best place to play because you can always find any sort of game that you want, prima poker has 20-40 sites that are interconnected and are great to play on. the graphics are not that good but they have alot of guarentees and tha level of play is not so good.

3.pokerstars- i enjoy pokerstars because tha\ey intergrate both nice tables and plenty of multi competitions, alot of pros so watch out!

oketz7777 11-29-05 06:06 AM
