My personal favs r pokerstars, partypoker, and absolute. I like pokerstars because I've had some success, and partypoker I'm unsure of because I'm having a hard time breaking through for any real success. Absolute I definitely have had the most success on. I haven't mentioned full tilt for obvious reason, lost money like many others on black friday. So what I really want to know from my fellow mobsters are your experiences, both good and bad with different poker sites. Ty, and I look forward to hearing your comments.

well i play everyday on pokerstars, partypoker,carbon poker and Yachting poker but my favourites are party and pokerstars because i had the most succes on that 2 sites but i like carbon and yachting also.........but if i can give you guys a tip chek out carbon poker .......nice tournaments and 25K bankroll booster freerolls and omaha horse and holdem freerolls and lots off fish and stupid calls
* Great community. * Fancy software. * Loyalty program - it's not really a good one, but you retain your loyalty level and I'm platinum with my own VIP manager - so I've got very good support there. * Regular reload bonuses. * I like small field MTTs, lots of tournaments run with with around 100-400 runners, much smaller than the larger sites - this helps to reduce MTT variance as you can final table a lot more often.

My favourite site is pokerstars, because from my oppinion is the best site in all situation...You have a lots tourney to play in cash play, fpp or play money with all buy in possible ...the second is that is not so hard to make FPP like at party poker where you have to play a lots of hands to make a few points...and the third is that is the biggest poker site...look how many people are online at every hour per day... What i dont like that are a lots of russian(specialy) donks, plays a lots of freerolls only to play all in festival... in conclusion if u have money play on pokerstars , u will have what to choose here, whatever u like to play your money

For sure Pokerstars is a very good site with the best variety of games. I am only playing there since two month, but like it very much. I started playing online poker at PartyPoker and still like this room. I also like Carbon and PKR. But with PKR I have to get more experienced with the software and their options.

I like Pokerstars, but sometimes it can be really hard avoiding get sucked out on by fish, or getting outclassed by a good player, you really do get beat down from all angles on that site sometimes.
Partypoker is good but pretty much has the same downsides as Pokerstars, and an extra downside in the amount of sit outs and time downs in freerolls, but its good if your'e not playing freerolls.
Carbon poker is my personal favourite because its the first site I got a sizeable withdraw from, all from freerolls, but in the sitngos there's some really good players too look out for, haven't been on it for a while but there was this guy called ZGFISH who was really amazing when i used to play on it.

First would be FullTilt, never mind that it's still not operating yet. The best thing about the site was poker academy, hope it won't be shut. Second, PokerStars. Site's more for real players. Ain't many fishes and other idiots. Third, 888poker. Love sites design, they're always making good promotions, also really good tournaments. The main problem is fishes. Fourth, maybe PartyPoker. I do have money there but ain't playing, so can't tell much about it. At the moment, i like Kingdom . Just taking money from idiots, from 8$ to 85$, ain't too bad

One more for Pokerstars as favourite site. The amount of players, the big kind of games, MTTs, multitable SnG, all cash limits, and the best soft (because FTP soft is out). And soon Zoom Poker (i miss Rush).
I also play in Yatching and Pokerdukes, two nice little sites.

Posted by mishu2009: the second is that is not so hard to make FPP like at party poker where you have to play a lots of hands to make a few points...
I'm sorry - but that doesn't make any sense.. The amount of points you get per $1 of rake is completely arbitrary. A site could give you 1,000,000 points per $1 of rake or 1 point. It's the value of the point that matters.
FWIW - PKR give you 100points per $1 of rake - so you build PKR points a LOT quicker than FPP points.. But as I say, in and of itself - that information is completely meaningless.

I love Yachting Poker. This is the site where I won more money until now. I know it is new, fresh, with small fields in tourneys and not having big activity in what concerns to SnGs and Ring tables, but the truth is: I can manage to win there against the regulars of today, and that’s what matters. Maybe if they win more popularity, by posts like this, maybe they will have more people playing there which will be good for them, but maybe bad for me, not being able to win so nice as I am now. Go there for yourself with the help of BRM NDB and proof what I am saying, its really great! About others, I also like PS for the great activity, PlayersOnly is also nice, Poker770, and others…

Pokerstars and partypoker. Pokerstars because off the differences in games. You have such a variarity of games so you will never get board, disappointing thing is the the fishes on this sites and the river. The river hates me. Partypoker is the best site i think. Good players and its easy to make some profit.

888,poker i will say is a good site,but like them all they really dont offer there players much of any bonus,,they just offer it to the new players and give all there money to there pros,,and the players that play at there site get S**T,,,
------------ O,sorry they do sometimes offer deposit bonus but you got to earn a TON of points then they only grant you little pay outs of like 5$ or 10$,,and of course to earn the full bonus you have pulled in 5 times in rake money for the house

I usually play at Cake poker and lately at Chili poker. Cant say they are my favorites though. I would go With Full Tilt as favorite but we all know what happened there for sure and the reason is i could always find Omaha hi/lo tables to play no matter what time was plus like the software

At this time I only play at Carbon which BRM does sponser. I can't play real money at PS and most other sites don't allow U.S. players. I'm considering joining another site which I probably shouldn't mention since they're no part of BRM, but there's a monthly fee of $20.00 which I fluxuate more then that on a weekly basis.
Your right about FT though, I liked playing there, but they have my money at this time and we'll have to see what happens there.
