PokerStars or FullTiltPoker?

[Mad Cow]

Hi,

I used to play on Party, but I know want to open a second account. I hesitate between PokerStars and FullTilt. I usually play $30 + $3 sit-n-gos, $3/$6 limit hold'em, and I have recently been playing NLHE cash games. I will typically spend 8 hours a week playing online poker. I would not mind depositing up to $500.

What do you guys recommend?

Thanks!

Pokerstars- Huge player base, loose tables, decent reward program. No rakeback, crappy bonuses(lack thereof).

Fulltilt-smaller player base, tighter tables (somewhat), meh bonuses, rakeback.

Absolute- medium size player base, rock gardens, rakeback, endless bonus.

Gotta go with what's gonna be most profitable here.

Because those are a US pokerplayer's only three choices nowadays?

yes pretty much the only choices...I was playing on betonbet recently but didnt like the setup or the players so I transfered all my money to Full Tilt and like it much better. Didnt like Stars too much when I played there but played mostly cash games...not SNG's. I'd say give both a try and if you have more success or feel more comfortable on one site then put all your money there after experimenting. good luck

Stars FPP program is actually quite good if you play at lot of SNGs. It is kinda meh for cash games though.
