Looking for additonal Poker Room...

[zachaser]

Been playing on Poker Stars for over a year now. It's a great site, but I was looking for a complementary site so I could split my SNG multi-tabling between two sites, as well as pick up a new bonus. The most important thing for me in my selection is the quality of the players; the worse the better. I've read up on the room reviews, but I wanted to hear ya'lls personal experiences: Which U.S. friendly rooms have the worst players?

ive heard a lot about bad players being on cake poker...but ive also heard their software is slow + very few people play

I haven't played in any room other the stars for about a year, when I played in the past FullTilt had a tough competition, VC and Absolute were relatively soft

I've been playing on Tower Gaming lately. They have some good bonuses for us bonus whores . Make sure you pick the right bonus though. Their software is not as good as PokerStars or FullTilt. For example you cannot resize windows making it difficult to multi-table unless you put on the minimised windows on (which means it's difficult to 'remember' who players are). The most important thing is the competition is soft and fishy. If you are prepared to compromise on the software issue, it's a good place.

EDIT: Not too sure on the US friendly issue...

Probably any other site will have softer competition than the Stars $16 turbos (from what I recall, they had a lot of regulars because they're the best rake deal on the net at that level) but the question is will your net ROI be any higher (because Stars $16 turbos have the best rake deal on the net at that level).

From memory, FT is the only other site that has reasonable b0nuses for SNG players.

I play exclusively on Full tilt with no rakeback because when I joined i didnt know about it.. Is rakeback worth it for a mainly sng player? Should I try Pokerstars with a rakeback deal? Can you get a bonus and a rakeback deal?

There is no rakeback available on Stars, they have relatively infrequent reload b0nuses which usually equate to about 33% rakeback.

I think signing up for rakeback is worth it on FT, but once you register for FT without signing up for rakeback it's too late - you need to create another account with a different e-mail address and sign up via a rakeback provider. Also, I am not sure, but I have heard that any b0nuses (sign up/reload) get netted off your rakeback.
