Personally PokerStars is my favourite. The reason so:

- full tables
- variety of games
- lots of tournaments
- great customer service

Partypoker is pretty good too! Recently I'm trying SunPoker (they have rakeback, so signup for that).

Agreed. I would like to add to it that Pokerstars have the lowest blind levels of any site going down to as low as $0,01/0,02. Their "Frequent Player Program" is also fairly awesome in my book. Im not playing there though because of issues with taxes.(Im supposed to pay 30% tax on all poker winnings outside of EU)

It really depends what you play and what you want in a poker room. Rakeback, soft games, smooth cashouts, 12-tabling, 5 card stud... etc. For example, I would never play at Pokerstars despite their good rep, because I believe there is too much money to be made in rakeback, and Stars does not offer it.

There are some great sites that analyze poker rooms:

http://www.pokerlistings.com
http://bonuswhores.com

or, you could explain yourself a little more in this thread and maybe I or someone can recommend something for you

As a fairly new player & micro-stakes player I agree too find someplace with rakeback.
I just signed up w/ UB & RTR & just from 2 days of playing I am already up to getting .80 back on the rake I paid in. I didn't think it would be much considering I play .01/.02 NL ring games....but apparently it is.
The two sites I've played & my quick review.
Full Tilt: Cheapest ring games are .05/.10.... lots of SNG's that fill up fast....but again the cheapest SNG is 1.00 + .25
Ultimate Bet: .01/.02 ring games. .50+.05 SNGs but they aren't very popular there. Long waits for tables to fill.

I like Full Tilts software better, but I like the softer games at UB.
