You have a lot to chose. Pokerstars is the most known, and also the room with most experienced players at all levels, from micro to high stakes. Party Poker is also a very well known site, in which people who pass their time there also do it a long time ago. About other sites, you can find some less crowded, but also with less experienced players at the lower levels. Look at what BRM as to offer you in terms of no deposit bonus. Don't go for all in the same day. Chose one, try the game there, find out what can be the best strategy for you (some prefer Sit and Go, others only go for Multi Table Tourneys, and others for ring). Stick to one type of game in the begining. If you have a bonus at Yachting, think about it, it has few players but lots of micro levels which is the ideal for you to start your experience in the real money game. GL

16 table ?, could you win play so much table ? I couldn't imagine how someone can enjoy the game with multitabling . Maybe you right, better play live poker, unfortunately no casino in my country How in Romania ?
Personnaly I would recommend pokerstars. Its a great site with a lot of traffic and it doesnt matter what you play (cash nl or plo, sng, mtt's) there will always be a game waiting for you. Also the software is very relayable and almost no lag.
I also like the interface, you can play easely multiple tables and it wont go blurry.
I have played on noumerous sites and I always go back to pokerstars
Also one last thing, the bonusses are not the best in the circuit but they are very transparant without to many small letters etc. So thats a plus to.

Well.. from the ones i know, i would say :
Party poker has nice games, nice promotions a okish rakeback system with nice bonuses, but the software doesn't appeal much to me (even tho i play there). PKR i dislike the software, probably the one i dislike the most, it's slow even in the fastest version, and it feels really boring to me to play there. It's not very much player friendly, games are soft tho, even tho there isn't much traffic. Pokerstars ofc has a nice software, they don't have very nice promotions/bonuses tho, unless you are a big spender. Freerolls aren't good, but you have the bankrollmob ones which are great. Software is fast and very nice, tbh one of the best. Titan poker has a nice software aswell, very fast and easy to use. Ultimately it depends alot on what are you looking for, are you takig it seriously and making deposits, looking for alot of games? Or just learning the game without stress and trying to pick a few bucks?
PokerStars was my first site, when I began play of poker... lot of astronomers' freerolls, first winning, cash games, sng... I still play there... Unibet - mainly for BRM freerolls - and you can win €, not $ PartyPoker - because I've got $10 bonus from BRM, and now I play ring games there

yeah live action is nice, especially the smelly drunk dudes who use the f.. word every time you beat them, and tell you that they will cut off your balls when you leave the casino
Posted by Doarulle: no so many bad beats ...
oh yeah, only good beat live- they hit you in the face every time they intend to, never miss
Posted by Doarulle: no robots...
can't remember when was the last time i i met a robot visiting casino
Posted by Doarulle: not so much rake...
yeah especially when playing black jack drunk
Posted by Doarulle: when i found a casino i'll play live...
they are not that hard to spot, just look for the sign "Casino"

Since your english is not too good i think you refer to online poker sites and on that case some of the best are indeed pokerstars and 888poker, plus full tilt poker when it will reopen...
If you asked about poker software(hud), then the obvious choice would be HM 2(HM 1 was better but you can't get it now).

yeah i'm waiting for that to happen too

yeah that helps to reduce the number of bad beats for good
Damn pochui that's quite some feedback in which I might say I did enjoy reading each of your replies for the comments, but in a sarcastic, comical way it all is very true. I really don't mind live play myself, but mostly around a group of people that I know and have known for some time. It's one thing to take a bad beat, but another to take a bad beating if you pizz someone off for being a better player. I mean, I don't know how much that really occurs, but it never will happen on electronice poker.

Pokerstars is by far the best graphic and option site and really easy to nabigate through and find a game that suits you. take a look at the site reviews right on BRM and see what everyone is saying about the different sites and try some out making the most of the BRM offers
