Choosing the right Poker Room for you!

10NL 6 max UK fish playing 4-6 tables about 10k hands per month, mostly evenings.

Already have non-tracked accounts at stars, party and 888. Tracked at Netbet and WH.

Looking for a new room to get back to gold status as there's not much new NL stuff for silver.

Passionately hate EVERYTHING ipoker (thought the old client was bad until I used the new one!!) so that's not an option. Never played on a microgaming site so was going to give 24h a go but not available to UK players? Played quite a bit on Party last few months and quite like it there. Can I get tracked at BWIN? Is it any good? Any other suggestions? Thanks.....

Hey Geebee2,

MPN might be a good fit for you. It's true that you can't play on 24hBet, but you can play on PKR as they joined the MPN network in March.

You will find ample traffic at regular NL10 tables although Blaze (fast fold) is only available through the 'Instant Play' function on the website.

MPN also has the lowest rake of all rooms.

Hey dubejoviceM,

I recommend you check out partypoker when you are ready to transition to single table SnGs and MTTs.

There is very little support for MTSnGs outside of PokerStars but party have some traffic at STTs and a very nice MTT schedule only bettered by Stars.

Yep seen them and isn't it the worst feeling when you know what you've got and just cant get a hand or they go on a purple streak

Hello,

I now have reached silver status and want to claim my 50$ free money.
But I cant choose partypoker as my room for it.
There are only 3 other offers but I didnt have any account uin one of them.
Why I cant choose my partypoker account for it?

Please help me.

Hi Kerpen1980,

You can only get the free money at a room where you dont have an account already and you cant make a new at partypoker, so choose one of the offers you see , (good way to test a new poker room) follow the instructions and hopefully everything works out good

Good luck / Rompas

Hello,
I have a trilemma between first deposit bonus at Betfred, Winner and Ladbrokes.
Where can I see how many club points (the points that a pokersite gives for playing and raking) are given per 1 euro of rake? Here all I can see is how many points you need to release a first deposit bonus chunk, but without club points-euro raked ratio, that data can be deceiving.
For example, one site can release a 5 euro chunk after 50 club points and the other can release a 10 euro chunk after 200 club points, but if the other gives 20 club points per euro raked and the first gives 2 club points then the second one is better to play on.

Playing on starts NL10 / Nl 25, I usually play in the night (from 8 pm to 4 am). I like to play at least 9 tables at a time, im trying to find a site where i can recieve a depost bonus (and eventually second free 50 bucks from PS.de) and at the same time i want to try another side, because stars is pretty taff, even tho i m winning player on NL10 / NL25 its really a pain in the ass, the very agressive preflop action between the regs results in huge swings and a lot of variance. As how to much rake i create / hands i play i was able to reach platinum level last month, can t remind how many hands i player, but defenitely close to 100 k or more.

what side would you recommend?

Hi zvonjimir,

Betfred:
Rake / Tournament Fee VIP Points
£1 30
€ 1 24
$1 20

Winner:
Rake Taken Per Hand Points Awarded
€1 (EURO) 16.875
£1 (GBP) 20

Ladbrokes:
$1 toward cash games = 10 Ladbrokes Points/Status Points
€1 toward cash games = 14 Ladbrokes Points/Status Points
£1 toward tournament fees = 16 Ladbrokes Points/Status Points

hey guys whats up!
I've been around for like 5-6 months or so, watched some VODs, read some books and forums on 2+2 and pokeroff. But never played online. And now I think I'm ready to start. So I'm choosing a room to play. I need a room with playmoney tables to train there first. What room should I pick?

The second question is:

Hello Aki2404,

Poker Stars is a good place to start and they have a lot of play money games for you to train on.
You should take a moment or two to Introduce yourself! to us properly.

If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask.
Good luck at the tables.

Regards

Matt

Hey Chris,

If you answer the questions below, we'll do our best to find the best room for you in regards to volume, traffic, bonuses, etc.

1. Which game type you play? (No limit? Sit & Go? MTT? PLO, Fixed Limit, Other?)

2. Which limit do you play? (example: NL25, SNG $11, FL .50/1)

3. Short handed or full ring tables, or even Heads-Up?

4. How much do you play? (e.g. I play 3 hours a week, or I generate $1000 rake/month)

5. How many tables do you want to play?

6. What are your goals for the next 3+ months?

7. What time zone are you in and what times do you play?

8. Which rooms do you already hold accounts at?

I like Sit & go 180 players no limited holdems with bet 2.50$

hey.

im playing partypoker atm, playing mostly NL10 FR (sometimes SH), thought about switching to pokerstars to either clear out some bonus or get a good rakeback.

im playing up to 4 tables at the time, i have a HUD, and yeah, id like a lot of fishes at the table also a lot of tables to choose from when finding a table.

Anyone got any links to a good player's review on the forum of the major poker sites? Namely partypoker, betfair, titan, unibet, or 888? I am having trouble finding anything current in the search. Thanks!

Hey mindsarocha,

The only real option for you would be PokerStars/FullTilt. There is nowhere else where FR NL25 is available.

Hey Mazais7777777,

Unfortunately no other rooms offer MTSnGs. You could consider playing MTTs on Party or MPN (24hBet or PKR) as a lot of their MTTs will be similar size fields to 180s.
