Default I'm on record about this already ...

For my money, the other sites are great to collect bonuses from, but Party/skins has the game selection and fish quotient that makes it a clear winner. Yes, the customer service, interface, and tourney structure all suck. And yes, the players are so numerous and so bad that it more than makes up for it again.

if you only play sngs, i think that party is the best place to play. even up to the 30+3 level, you can play a very basic, sit back and wait for a big hand strategy. i know the set up makes it somewhat of a crapshoot, but you can make pretty good money by just playing solid, consistent poker there.

thank god for the fish.

Definately UB. The players seem to be just good enough to bluff, but just bad enough to play some terrible hands.

If you promise not to laugh, I'll tell you....
JetSetPoker is my all-time favourite.

I'll have to try that site. I've heard a lot about JetSet but haven't had a chance to sit down and check it out yet.

I lean to PokerStars mostly because the customer support kills that of Party Poker. I just hate to wait 2 days for an answer to an e-mail, and that's if they're flying at support.

Default Did I miss the saracasm?

Are you serious about JetSet? Any affiliate offers? How is the game selection?

Default Party's skins/Follow-up on JetSet

I believe the current list is ...
Empire
Intertops
Pokernow

though I might be missing one. Lots and lots of material out there on RGP and 2+2 about playing multiple skins -- make sure you read up on it before creating second accnts.

Meanwhile, I wanted to follow up on JetSet. Are people really claiming that as their favorite site, or was that a joke?

I like The Gaming Club, it has great NL games from 5cents-10cents all the way to $100-200 NL. I am biased though since I won a tourney there today, but all in all it's the best prima skins out there!

Default Gaming Club Rules!

Yeah, I'm a big fan of GamingClubPoker.com. It's a lot like PartyPoker, but it seems more organized. Also, there are (or, at least, were) daily freeroll tournaments. I'm cheap, so I prefer freerolls to anything else.

The three sites I've tried and enjoyed a fair amount are Party Poker, Poker Stars, and Poker Room. Party Poker is the site I usually use now but Poker Room is probably better in terms of the quality of play.
