I use PKR myself.

I'm trying to deposit some cash into my account but its not working for some reason so i'm looking for another to join. Any recommendations?

I've had same problem with PKR before, the money gets 'stuck' between the two accounts

your own, and PKR's - in a holding account, don't keep trying cos they'll keep taking it, and you will be credited, have to go through ringing banks etc

anyway, Ladbrokes

I'm mostly play on BlackBelt atm as I'm doing the grading atm ( http://www.blackbeltpoker.com/refer/jamiecarra/?page=/community/register/ )

Before that I was mostly playing on stars and other random ipoker skins

Nah mate its not that, it just won't let me even go on to the page to deposit money from my bank. Pissing me off as i could just have a game of poker.

I'll have a look at that Ladbrokes one. Cheers.

Ladbrokes equal pay out used to be sound, then they switched it up and many people left.

have accounts with stars and pkr but only play on fulltilt now, and have played on betfair poker in the past

DangerScouse · « **Reply #9 on:** February 25, 2010, 05:07:55 PM »

Closed my account with Paddy Power last summer as got stupid playing drunk at very high stakes when i got home from nights out. Think i bet over $100k in total, and was never up over $5k and never down more than $4k. You live and learn as they say. Only play live games now.

Ladjokes and Sly Poker. Sly just about edges it because you play in £'s.

CheshireDave · « **Reply #11 on:** February 25, 2010, 06:28:13 PM »

Ladbrokes, Will Hill, Pokerstars and Betfair.

Cochise · « **Reply #12 on:** February 25, 2010, 06:30:33 PM »

Joined Full Tilt and its not too bad, the graphics on PKR are far far better but its sound. I'm still not winning much but heyho

I use Full Tilt Poker now.

Have previously played on Paddy Power,Ladbrokes,Pokerstars,Party Poker and while there is bad beats on all sites, there is definitely way less on Full Tilt and will be sticking with it.

generic_name · « **Reply #14 on:** February 26, 2010, 01:14:50 AM »

I think i've played on almost all of them but full tilt is the only site that doesnt make me want to punch my own head in, although it's still pretty close.

Over the last 5-6 years have played on all the major sites and most of the minor ones that came along too.
Don't play anywhere near as much as I did over that period but still play at:
32Red, AP, Bodog, Betmost, Bwin, Cake, Carbon, Doyles, Everest, FullTilt, Paddy Power, Paradise, PKR, Stars, PokerRewards, Purple Lounge, Reefer, Titan, UB and Wass.
So if anyone ever has a decent game anywhere, hit me up and if I'm around I'll be in

Don't get me wrong it's not because i run better there, because i don't, in fact im on a super sick soul crushing downswing as we speak. I play there because i find it has the right balance of weak players, good software, lots of tables running, i like the tournament structures and i get rakeback.

Bit of help needed please if yas dont mind.

NOthing to do in wqork unfortunately, we've been told to just entertain ourselves, so i wann agame of poker.

I cant download anything, so i need a poker game where i can play in the browser. Used to use Bewin, but our system administrator has turned off the ActiveX controls, and i cant access security settings to turn it back on. Anyone know of any sites that require neither download or ActiveX??? Pretty please!!!!

Cheers

used to be with william hill and betfair but they went rapidy downhill since leaving crypto

I've played on all of them!I like Party Poker and Paddy Power cuz if your account begins to run low you can throw it on an accumilator and hopefully top up!Play mostly on Full Tilt but beware as it is very very very annoying!Minimal hands tend to win a little too often!Poker Stars is a good one too!

Stars for me. Maintaining Supernova status gets me over 25,000 points per month, which I've been spending on £250 Amazon vouchers every month (best value way to spend them - there's always something on Amazon that you want). Aside from sign up bonuses I'd have thought it pays to stick to playing in one place.

What is it with Full Tilt? Genuine question. As far as I can tell it can't be sign up bonuses, so why are so many there? Do they take less rake or what?

Throxenby · « **Reply #31 on:** April 29, 2010, 09:54:07 AM »

aint been using tilt for a while, as i feel all sites cold deck all players anyway. maybe it just feels that way. but the sign up bonus is ok, also the positive i find on tilt over stars is the rackback. stars dont do it, however as yer say they give something similar, i prefer the other way, yer can see what tilt are giving yer back through yer rakeback.

Not for a while, they are on the Ipoker network if that helps, same software as William Hill/Mansion/Titan Etc

Brentie · « **Reply #36 on:** January 5, 2013, 05:57:03 PM »

I use 365 but ridiculous amount of bad beats on there (and they're fucking owned by the Stoke owner) so thinking of switching.

tucker1984 · « **Reply #37 on:** January 6, 2013, 07:41:30 PM »

having played on most of the main sites i have found myself doing better on the ipoker network,

JG · « **Reply #38 on:** January 12, 2013, 05:25:42 PM »

Pokerstars has to be the best,

whatever you do, don't join WilliamHill, it is so incredibly fixed you wouldn't believe it.....
