Default So, is Full Tilt the place to go to?

Im a NL-player, playing mostly NL100 and sometimes higher, almost exclusively on Party Poker. I guess you are all tired of hearing about the "MONSTER PROMOTION SUXX OMFGAAAA!!!!" and I won't explain my reasons for leaving party any further, since I'm positive you understand my motives. I have spent the last couple of days searching for a new site to call "home".

The site Im looking for is required to have PT and PA-Hud support, a steady player base and a good amount of fish... The alternatives are not many to be honest. The only good options I found so far are Pokerstars and Full Tilt. I like Pokerstars, they have a huge player pase, great software etc. but no bonuses, no rakeback, and for some reason I find the quality of play to be somewhat higher than "standard" despite the player base. Full Tilt on the other hand have more bonuses, rakeback and they also have a pretty neat interface and reliable software.

Pokerstars also has great multitabling opportunities with the resizable windows etc. and a great vip-shop/reward-system... The more I tried these sites out the more I realized how much better than Party Poker they both actually are. I guess if it wasn't for the party fish I would have been gone a long time ago... So I guess what it really comes down to is choosing between these to sites, and I am leaning towards Full Tilt for the reasons stated above. But I would be happy for any input you might have. Maybe there are other sites out there also worth a try?

Believe it or not, the more good players that go to a site, the tougher the games get.

Maybe FT has soft games in your range...But if good players from 2p2 start flocking there due to the reasons listed above, they will cease to be quite as soft.

You're probably gonna have to make your own decisions re: where the best games are

I have just moved to Fulltilt after playing at Party, Pokerstars, Prima and Crypto and although I have only played 7000 hands there I think it is awesome. I am working off the $600 deposit bonus and get 27% rakeback as well as winning at 7bb/100 (I play limit and yes I expect this to drop soon lol).

I played alot at fulltilt and don't think there were as many fish as when i started. Nl 100 tightened up alot, NL 200 was very good but i didnt have the roll for that game.

One area you did not mention was customer service and support. This is a major reason why so many "serious" players are at Stars.

[/ QUOTE ]No it is not. "Serious" players go where the money is, not where their one email to customer support a year is answered 6 hours sooner, and a little bit better.

Moron, those two objectives, as are most of the rest of your wants, are INCOMPATIBLE with the presence of fish. I am the worlds biggest fish and I don't go where there are lots of multitabling tags. (Well, some of the time anyway)

Full Tilt is growing fairly rapidly and they can't all be good players. I find plenty of idiots at the $50NL which is good because I can't beat people who don't suck.

Most of the casual players don't put that much thought into it.
