Which US Friendly Poker Room Do You Least Trust?
I took the top 7 US friendly sites from Poker Site Scout. I left off Prima because of the number of skins and the fact they ban 11 states.

Re: Which US Friendly Poker Room Do You Least Trust?
I think asking "Which US Friendly Poker Room Do You Least Trust?" is a bad question.
I think you would get more meaningful answers if you asked people to rate each site out of 5, and then averaged those scores. |

Re: Which US Friendly Poker Room Do You Least Trust?
various Prima skins seem to suck a lot more than anyone on that list, but who knows, I'm in the wrong state anyway.
otherwise, I have decent money + on all of them and probably won't change that (except for poker.com but that's because it's a ghost town.) |

Re: Which US Friendly Poker Room Do You Least Trust?
Yeah I didn't know how to include Prima. There are certainly several shady skins. To rate the rooms 1-5 would have been painful with 5 different polls.

The way you have done this will give you an easy answer, but one that has no meaning. I feel that if one site gets the highest score, it is probably because it is the most high profile/has the most accounts/had the most bad experiences with it. eg, hypothetical scenario: Site A has 1million users. 1% of them have had problems. 10,000 people post about it, and there are 10,000 threads about this. Thus, very low trust, and would likely get a high score on your method. Site B has 10 users. 100% of them have had problems. 10 people post about, and there are 10 threads about this. Thus, unlikely to be the most untrustworthy site in the eys of most people - 'cause people don't know about the problems. Which site is least deserving of trust? I think in this hypothetical scenario, Site B is obviously far less deserving of trust. If your purpose was to start a thread and a poll with very little effort, you have succeeded. If your purpose was to obtain even half meaningful information on the question of poker site trust, you have failed. (edit: word correction) |

Re: Which US Friendly Poker Room Do You Least Trust?
You left out TruePoker which I won't trust with my added info they are asking me for.
After 2 years of supporting their numerous skins, making numerous deposits and less numerous withdraws, they suddenly demand more info(without explanation) before I can play there anymore. Screw them. |

Re: Which US Friendly Poker Room Do You Least Trust?
Something of a horserace for me between UB, FTP, and ABS. I ended up choosing UB, although I'm not sure I like my logic. I was actually giving them less credit for there being no reason to have money there, and maybe I should be giving them more: I have money at ABS and will probably at FTP if they ever give me a [censored] reload, and that's probably reason to trust them less.
However, I'm more annoyed at not trusting UB, because now I have nowhere to play HU triple draw, as Stars' HU rake stinks to high heaven. |

Re: Which US Friendly Poker Room Do You Least Trust?
I'm surprised that UB is winning and AP has only a few votes. I'm guessing AP would be a 2nd place for many since AP and UB are run by the same. FWIW I voted for UB.
