Default Best place to desposit $50

Im sure this question has been asked a million times before but I'm going to ask it again.

Im looking to deposit around $50 into a new poker site, I'm not too bothered about the look of the site, more interested in a useable bonus and a few soft players. I'm not the greatest player in the world, but I'm not a losing player either, so any tips will be gratefully receieved, and if anyone wants a referral for the one i do pick then i'll be happy to do that too. :good:

www.bonuswhores.com

Go to Bonuswhoring 101 on that site. You got a bonus bible now.

bonus whores reccommend starting at bet365 for bankrolls of $50-200,

but you need to play at 0.5/1 NL or 1/2 limit to clear it properly.

if you follow thier advice i think you may be under bankrolled and risk going bust.

i would prob reccommend ultimatebet, or pokerstars for a good choice of low limit games. i do not think stars has a bonus right now but UB has 20% and it clears at any limit.

also VC is another site where you can play low limits and the bonus (25%) clears at all limits.

(feel free to use me as a referal let me know and i'll pm the info)

My exeperience is that 0.5/1 at Bet365 is very soft and that was only two weeks ago. I'm on Absolute Poker now and the 0.5/1 and 1/2 are very tough compared to Bet365.

You can still take a -$50 swing in soft games.

The Doyle Brunson Poker Network, which includes Doylesroom, VictorChandler, the Fishtank, and a few others is a decent place to start. If you don't care about clearing bonuses right away, Pokerstars and UB.

For a $50 roll you may not get far.

Either AP, where you can keep reloading to build up the bonus (but the clearance rate is now slow), or a few monthly Cryptos, just play ultra-tight and build up the #5/hour bonuses until your roll is decent size. Problem with cryptos is the payout pin hassles. At least AP clears in $10 increments so you get your hands on the bonus cash earlier. Also there are less BWs there now cos of the slower clearance rate, so the games are easier.

On balance - start with AP or a Party skin, then go to Cryptos once you are over $100.

Bet365 also a good option. The welcome bonus clears at 0.25/5, but the monthly has to be .5/1NL.

pm if you want more info

Soft players and good bonus (100%) sounds like Titan Poker - or any other of the ipoker Network (Noble, CD, ...).
Nice interface, chat support, good tournements but almost exclusively Texas Holdem action.
Good site for beginners
