in all this years spent in the virtual world of players i had many,different godd and other times not so good experiences regarding ones or others client politics. some sites are taking part in several client attracting programs,and they are exposing offers which may sound amazing at first look,but later they will shorely disappoint their customers. with very pour player field,bad client politics,'fifth' category software and very hard conditions for bankroll builders i found at least three pokerrooms: CelebPoker,bet365poker and pokertime! in these pokerroms you hardly gonna build up more then 22$ after having fought againts 300/500 players in at least 10 tournaments!!!

u never biuld more then 2-3 k $ per year if u not play all days and with buy in more then 20 $ so then more byu in was more u can win but also remember more u can loose there so u can decide or play low buy in or just try luck and play 2-3 more higher buy in and hope for reall luck but its heppens not very offten
Why CelebPoker? You may mean iPoker network because tournaments are the same in the whole network, independently of the client site (Celeb, Titan, Noble, etc ...) I haven't tried bet365 but what I can say is that is more difficult to build a bankroll in iPoker than PokerStars or FullTilt, where I have built one without problems.

i think it depends on which games you wanna play and the traffic for that games on that particular site. eg its gonna be hard for someone to build at a site if hes paying 20% rake for sng rather 10% at some othersite

I'd go against the whole iPoker network in this, The software is terrible to multitable, and the rakebacks deals are quite bad. Also the points system makes accruing them quite difficult

Hi Synthetikos.
I think the diferrence between a hard and normal conditions is the way of points for rake are given. Contribute system, normal conditions. Non-contribute system, ready to figth..

Ive got an account in celeb and Ive played one tourney there - that was enough to get the feeling - it was bs software. Also imo all ipoker stuff is trash, its full little of mistakes and in a long term they will get very frustrating. Dont know anything about the two other sites, but thanks for your opinion about those. Im pretty sure tho as long as Ive got 3 major poker sites, im not gonna look into others at all lol

Hello everybody! For me, I passed the site better now and is far PokerStars. Besides, I think replay at home because right now my bankroll on Pkr does not take off. I can not stop the bad beat against the donk think when I finally took off my bankroll. See you soon for new posts lol!
The terms and conditions @ small to medium sites regarding deposit bonus' are not going to be in your favor. FTP is probably the best site for bankroll building having a good 1st deposit bonus, high traffic, dealt rakeback and several small bonus offers throughout the year. PokerStars is a close 2nd due to NO rake.
