Online Poker Sites

Afternoon All

Been playing online poker online for a few years through Ladbrooks, but fancy a change.

Anybody using any of the online poker sites? Which ones do you prefer? Why?

What are the good points and bad points of the sites that you've used?

Thanks

Re: Online Poker Sites

Suprised actually that the site hasn't set up it's own room in a free poker site (prehaps yahoo..etc...) I wouldn't say no to few nights playing texas holdem with the members..

Shall I look into it??

(obviously one played without money)

Re: Online Poker Sites

I'd be up for that, I really enjoy Poker and don't get to play as often as I'd like

Keep trying to get my mates to play.....for some reason though none of them are interested

---------- Post added at 16:02 ---------- Previous post was at 16:02 ----------

Not sure how much general interest we'd get though (or how easy it would be to get more than a couple of people on at a time).....

Re: Online Poker Sites

I dont gamble at all now, in my past life I did do the roulettte wheels, but very rarely.

Bet £50 quid on black once, it came up, I walked away, and we spent it all in the bar!

Oh what fun........................

Re: Online Poker Sites

I have a friend who quit work and now plays online poker full time. Ladbrokes is one of his main sites. A few weeks ago he won about $15,000. He's won all kinds of other weird things too, invitations to private functions, live game entries, shares in racehorses etc.

Me either. I much prefer the PKR interface.
Hell, even the Zynga Poker on facebook is better than pokerstars

Re: Online Poker Sites

Part of the problem I'm having is that I'm trying to run the Windows clients in Ubuntu.....not all of them like that very much
