For various reasons I am having to change my usual online poker site (all legitimate reasons for the record!!) but, the thing is, I am not sure which one to use as I have always used the same one. So, please let me know what the best overall site that you have played is please. It seems with every passing day our game is growing and more sites appearing. It seems a minefield.
I dont have any real criteria although I would prefer Neteller as an option.
Sign Up bonus is not that important as i want a site to stay with, not just for the immediate future.
I have also put in my usual site into the poll, Options in alphabetical order.....

I think William Hill & Ladbrokes deserve nominations. - although they are not global.  Smiley

Just opened a blue square account and i must say i am quite impressed, and the fact that i can do all my gambling from the one place suits me fine.

Plus Jonathon from blue square was an absolute gent at Luton at the weekend, and im a sucker for a free baseball cap Smiley

And NO Tikay.... before you send me a Blonde cap...NOT that kind of sucker Wink

Hi m8, I think you should also consider what blind structures are on offer, this one factor will have more impact than all the rest put together, ie most sites do 10 hands per level in stt's but some, such as pokerstars do 10 mins, and 12 mins for multis, it makes a huge diference when you get short handed, also some sites dont provide usefull infrmation ie poss in tourneys/pot size pre flop. do you play cash games? rakeback is nice, gl let me know what u decide.

Got to say this is a really vague poll, do you want bad players, good software, good tournaments/overlays, good cash action. Many different answers to the same question.

Software: UB
Tournies: Stars
Cash Games: Prima
Payment options/Speed: Stars
Support: Stars/Paradise
Bonuses: Interpoker

Hi Fatshaft
Thanks for the detailed answer.
You make a ggod point but i could not possibly break down all of those options, hence why i just wanted the ones people enjoy the most. That is priority, ENJOYMENT!
The details do help though.
I have actually downloaded PokerChamps to have a look at it, the software is brilliant but not played on it yet. The down side is that not many people were using it when i went on.
As Snoopy said, there are quite a few mnore that probably warranted a mention but where do you draw the line!!
Thanks for your help, any more answers by people would be really appreciated

I suspect Mr jbsc7769 is really looking for a site that operates in, ooh, I dunno, Greece, maybe? Just a hunch, you'll understand.......

I voted Party as I think for your type of game (SNGs and MTTs) they have a wdide player base. Just keep away from the O8 game Cheesy
