better to stay away from smaller poker sites if you are a beginner, they often won't let you redraw a small amount like 30$. there is a reason why people play at pokerstars and fulltilt poker and that is because there are no reasons to complain, their cecs are always good, they help people out and they have a plethora of games.

fox example i tried playing titan poker and i kept getting dc while playing, they didn't manage to help me so i stopped playing there.

also, i used to play heads-up on UB, microstakes that is, but the rake was so huge at 2nl that after 100 hands someones buyin was almost gone, meaning that if me and you join the heads-up game for 2 $ each, after 100 hands there will be only 2 $ at the table, or close to it.

Good question.
I have UB,AP,merge ,FTP,Powerpoker,
cakepoker.
I think Gohard and Victory poker is not good.
May be you can try I have .
UB have 20 000 play online at 19:00 ET.

I've played a lot of software, in my opinion are the worst, 777 and Pacific Poker.

I trust only FTP, PokerStars and Carbon...!!!

And I think they have the best software of all...

All the other sites have a similar old look and I didn't start to play them and uninstalled right away...

Why go with the second(or third...) best...?

Today I received my O.K. for Rakeback at FTP,
so I won't go anywhere else...!!!

If you decide to play on a site, try to find out where the Headquarter is...!!!
Some have their headquarter in a country in Latin America,
and you know how they do follow the law...

FTP is in Ireland for example...!!! That is serious...!!!

I have played in many rooms (around 30-40) and I was delluded only in one room: Players Only. Avoid that room. Also avoid very small/unknown rooms.

huh? Did they just move?

OP's question... idk. THere's sites I've played at & wouldn't recommend (ie. PokerTime ... the player traffic/volume is sooo small there these days that's it not worth it, micro cash tables only have a few running, they're all 6max and full of regs. (you'll also usually be playing at 20nl, not much goin' on below that.. sometimes 10nl). Really goofy sng lobby... MTT's are very limited.
but even then.. I wouldn't call it 'bad'... it's just not what I'm looking for these days in a poker site.

I think you'd need to clarify what you're meaning by 'bad'??

Their official head office is in Dublin.
www.pokerscout.com

PokerStars have their Server in any Indian reservation,
but I am not sure if it's Canada or in the States...

Carbon is as long as I know in Australia...

But UB is in Costa Rica and I read about cheating ,
when personnel of UB have managed to read all players hands on the table
and many players lost big money.

UB never gave those players any money back...,
..as far as I know...!!!

Costa Rica is not a trustful place where I would send my money...

What was your issue with Players Only?

Actually they don't. Pokerstars is 'Isle of Man'. The 'Indian Reserve' you are referring to is 'Kahnawke' and there are actually many online poker sites that operate there (I watched a documentary about it on tv awhile back, forget how many diff sites have their servers there... but it was ALOT!! (I think in the ballpark of 45+ sites) )
Carbon is as long as I know in Australia...

But Ultimatebet is in Costa Rica and I read about cheating ,
Um, actually, wrong again... UB is located at the Kahnawake Reserve (which is located in Canada, just outside of Montreal,Que.)
when personnel of Ultimatebet have managed to read all players hands on the table
and many players lost big money.

I think I'd love to spend my money in Costa Rica. Costa Rica is a cheap place to live & actually has some online players who have moved there, living the beach/paradise lifestyle while playing online poker (when they actually go outside that is, LOL... although I've read stories of them multi-tabling while out on the beach, veranda, patio etc., YES!!!!)

Not sure of the figures/amounts... but am pretty certain that alot of players were re-imbursed funds on UltimateBet/Absolute poker. Even some micro limit players logged in to their accounts to see $'s added to their bankrolls there.
