    In HollywoodPoker you can see a star beside a player so you'll know you're playing with a celebrity. It's also easy to find which tables they're playing coz you'll see a star in the tournaments. It's cool that you can chat with them at the tables and in the lobby.

    You also need to consider in choosing a poker room is the bonuses offered not only the first deposit bonus but in a long run on how often they offer bonuses..like reload bonuses etc...A rake back deal is a good thing to consider with a poker room. If you are a regular online poker player, take a minute to calculate the money you invested in one or more online poker rooms in a specific month. including wins that were not deposited out of your own pocket...granted that not all of the money you've invested in your online poker business or hobby counts as a rake but by selecting the right rakeback deal you could be getting some of your money back.

    Some Poker rooms have different name of rakeback deals or terms..like loyalty bonus etx..I'm with Hollywood Poker and they called it Valued Back Player programme...in a way I get back the money that I been playing and having a great time with the tables they offer

    Once you feel educated and safe about rakeback and the different ways in which it is offered...why wouldn't take advantage of this

    Default Dont play at Full Tilt

    Dont play at Full TIlt poker thier site is a scam. If you have a set so does some one else. If you have KK some one will have AA. Thier "random card generator" is total bs and after a few rounds of no hands being played all of the sudden eveyone has a big hand at the same time increaseing the amount of money in the pot thus increaing thier rake. Never seen so many sets over sets and AA KK and QQ in one hand ever. That place is bad beat king.

Each player will have different goals and needs from another, and certain sites cater to these different demographics. There isn't a worse way to begin your online poker career than choosing a room that doesn't suit you.

    This thread will also assist you in going through the right channels when you initially sign up. It sucks to miss out on an extra $100 in bonus, or a free chip set, or 30% rakeback at a site, when all you had to do is click 1 link!


    Where should I play?

    Ask yourself these 3 questions:

    Do I enjoy playing at this site?

    Does the site offer games I am comfortable playing?

    Does the site have competitive bonuses and reward programs?




    If you don't enjoy playing at the site you are going to have a hard time playing good poker. Imagine going to work every day and having a coworker yelling at the top of his lungs every 30 seconds, the sun shining in your eyes all day long, and the building being so big you constantly get lost.

    Well, as outrageous as this sounds it can happen if you pick a poker room that has sounds you find annoying, a color scheme that hurts your eyes, or complex features you cannot figure out. One person may find the graphics very appealing while another cannot stand them. Make sure you like the graphics, sounds, and features of the site you intend to play at.

    So, before you sign up at a site make sure you download the software and play at their "play" money tables to make sure you like the sites features.




    If you only know how to play 7 card stud than signing up at a site that only offers hold' em would be silly, no matter how much they offer in bonuses or how appealing the site is to you.

    Make sure that people are PLAYING these games at the times you will normally play. It soesn't do much good if you play Hold' em and the only time the sites hold' em tables are busy is when you're sleeping.

    You also want to make sure the stakes offered are comfortable for you. Some sites start at $1/$2 limits while others start at $.01/$.02. make sure the site offers the stakes you intend to play.

    Before you sign up at a site make browse around their real money tables to make sure they offer the right games and stakes for you and there is enough traffic at these games.



    Lastly, make sure the site offers you a reason to play there. Right now online poker is a buyers market, with 1000's of sites to choose from they all have to stay competitive. Make sure your site not only offers a good sign-up bonus nut also frequent reload bonuses.

    Additionally many sites offer reward programs for their customers. Using these programs you can get tons of free gear: books, clothing, free tournaments, you name it.



    Once you find a place you like, offers comfortable games for you to play, and has competitve bonuses it's time to move onto the second step.

    Going through the right channel

    Before you sign up at any site you should check around to see if you can get better bonuses, rakeback, or promotional gifts by going through an affiliate.

    Ask around the forum and many members will direct you to reputable websites that offer these things.

    These affiliates can make you $100's of extra dollars a month, just for signing up through them! you were going to sign up anyway, might as well get everything you can.

    Never, NEVER, sign up at a site until you learn if they offer rakeback or you can receive a better bonus or gift from an affiliate.

    Am I allowed to post a bonus code here?

    Cos as we were talking about getting the best deal when you join a site, I thought I would share that I get a good rakeback from PKR.com that I recieved using a bonus code a friend gave to me who is an affiliate for PKR.com

    My deal that I got was custom for me, I am allowed to play his private affiliate tornaments, I had a 100% deposit bonus upto $2000, and I am on a 25% Rakeback deal, (that I get straight into my player account each month). Sweet for me, and if I choose to play at another site he would do similar, I play quite alot of poker!

    Anyway I am not going to post the bonus code here incase it is not allowed, but if it is allowed please let me know and I would love to share the bonus code
