Read some reviews and take your pick:


If you only play tourneys, I would suggest .

I still like Paradise. Stars is where I have money now, and I like the site but I hate the graphics. I used to it now though.

pokerstars is the best for tourneys... you can play tourneys for any games, sats to enter the WPT, EPT and the 350K weekly tourney.

I like low buy-in events also like in the dollar amounts thats why i dont like party. You all can laugh but the $1.00 buy in alot of times can end up paying out just as much as the $5.00 one when 1k people enter and if you play smart can get into money pretty easy. I played a 2.75 torney and got 2nd out of 100 and got $17.00 i was happy.

PokerStars has a nice tourney structure. I also like the choices Party has as well as the Bad Beat tables.

I have only played on a hand full of sites, so you might not want to listen to me .

Personally I like pokerstars the most. They allow you to input pretty much any pic for your avatar, which's fun. And also helps you recognize people quicker.

The interface is decent, i think it can strain the eyes a bit much if you have many tables open, but other than that it's ok.

Players... I dunno you get lots of everything there.

The customer support is great as well...

In the end I think you should just d/l a bunch of them, and try out their play money tables for a while. When you find the site you like the most, go with that one.

Cheers,

Gutzz

I have found that the mid level sites are great. Party is just too damn big. Too much craziness. The newer small ones never have the choices you want. So some of the mid range sites. Maybe pacific, but the choice of games etc. there isnt that great. Maybe Pokerroom?

ya I like pacific because they have low buy-ins and the players are absolutley the worst you can see. If you can deal with the suck outs its nice.

It may just be me but the amount of river catches at party in tournaments amazes me. I am a rather tight player, and that seems to work better for me in tournaments on stars

Do you play only one table at once? cause pacific doesn't allow you to multi-table.. and I find their servers aren't the most reliable.. and they only have limit, pot-limit, and no-limit hold'em tourneys.. no omaha or stud if that makes a diff.

Stars has TONS of $1 tourneys.... last night I played a $1 LHE, limit Omaha and NLHE tournies... I also like to play some higher buyins $10 or so. PS is the only site I know where they offer about any game u want to play for a low buyin. Also the sats I was talking about are only $3 too... think if u won a seat to the 350K for $3 or $6 then did well... huge payday.

ive been checking it out and because of the traffic in the $1.00 mtt im gonna deposit on stars something about paying $1.00 and maybe winning $800.00 sounds nice. Ive decided so done with the thread $50 on stars and $50 on jetset.

for tourneys definetly Stars or try Pokeroom(5 dollar tourney every 30 mins) UB also has a good amount of low buy-in tourneys. I had some $ on pacific but cashed out after I cleared the bonus. Just awful site and very few small buy in tourneys.
