Fave Poker Website

Recommended Posts

So my infatuation with online poker playing is growing the point of opening a live money account(s) here soon.

 

Just curious what poker websites are some of your fave's if you are a poker player. I hope James will chime in since he's been there and done that.

 

It's pretty amazing all the poker rooms and software that is out there to help your playing. There's really a lot of similarities with online poker playing and trading. I'm hoping that will translate into a possible little hobby for me that can make some money as well.

 

Nothing big in the beginning, just small stakes for me.

 

If you have any poker sites - where to play, blogs, software, etc. - please post here as I would like to see what's out there.

 

Thanks!

Full Tilt Poker is the best. Are you more a ring game player or a tournament player? If you like tourneys, check out Pocket 5's.com for info and instruction.

 

If you want to get a bit serious with your play, you really need all three of the following:

 

1. Full Tilt Poker (Ivey's site-'nough said)

 

2. Poker Superstars (Sunday Million & World Series of Online Poker.)-Usually has the most seats to the WSOP.

 

3. Ultimate Bet

PP - I am familiar with all the main sites. I've actually been reading that it's best to STAY AWAY from these as they attract the real sharks.

 

One thing nice about Poker that you do not see in trading is that certain 'exchanges' exist and certain 'exchanges' attract certain players.

 

For example, I've read that bodog.com is a great site to play poker b/c it's mainly a sports betting site and you find more loose play here vs. Full Tilt or Pokerstars.

 

I'm also amazed at the software out there to help your play. I am looking at: http://www.poker-edge.com Just have to watch the demo to see what this thing is capable of. Imagine trading against your opponent when you already know how likely it is that your opponent will beat you... It's pretty amazing actually.

 

Anyone know of any good poker blogs? I like reading the blogs. I'm thinking of starting a poker one.

There are only a few sites that take U.S. players these days. Besides, if you can't find a game because there are no players what's the point of an "under the radar" site?

 

Poker Tracker is good too.

 

.....But if you're looking for fish and don't mind short handed tables, True Poker.com is good.

I have yet to find a site that does NOT take US players. Every major one appears to take US players, along with the 'smaller' sites.

 

As for the 'under the radar' sites, I am talking about the sports betting sites that attract the casual poker player. Bodog and sportsbook have plenty of games, so filling a table of 9 or 10 is not an issue since the entire world has access to the sites.

 

The nice thing about poker edge is you can add-on 'poker lobby' which scours the sites they support (over 100) looking for loose games. And then you can hop right over there to the loose games.

 

So far the programs and software out there are pretty interesting if nothing else. To be able to know right away if your opponent (who you've never played before) defends his blind, likes to limp in, etc. is just incredible.

You are a bit late to the party. Not that that is a bad thing. Its just that there are so many site that had to shut their doors when the legislation was passed.

 

Here is a list from cardplayer.com

 

When we say take U.S. players, we mean real money. Not play money . net sites.

 

Party poker was the largest site on the net bar none before the ban.

 

Paradise poker is one of the oldest and most respected.

 

Doyle's Room just recently came back but on a new network.

 

WPT card room not on the list but despite all the US viewers of the show, the site never took U.S. players.

 

Hollywood poker and all the sites on that network no longer take U.S. Players.

 

Cardplayer poker is a free site. They don't take money from anybody.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!
