Which site when I move up to .25/.50+?

Hey I was wondering where I can get the most bang for my time when I start moving up stakes to where reward programs kick in?

Right now I am just learning the game, etc, grindng at microstakes on Pokerstars. But I am sitting here looking at my rake on pokertracker and these rakeback programs become very appealing. Though pokerstars has the FPP/VPP program, I am not sure if at the platinum level (the highest I will possibly ever achieve) the 50,000FPP -> $650 cash is going to give me anything similar to how much I'd get at 30% rakeback.


Anyway, the question is what site gives the best bonuses when everything is added up?

well first i'd recommend a move to FTP at $600 in order to take advantage of 27% rakeback and the deposit bonus. Then after you reach a certain level 1/2? pokerstars is supposed to be really appealing. But i'm not sure about that, only to move to ftp at 600

Edit: don't play .05/.10 at ftp, the rake is 10% which is ridiculous

ipoker has a few good skins, check your PMs

ah, american, oh well.

if you are from US, you should go for FTP+bonus

if you're a rakeback whore

go to FTP then grind out UltimateBets 1100 deposit bonus then play at the smaller websites like me : P

Well I think I already screwed myself deposit-bonus wise with UB and FTP. While trying out their software I popped $50 into each. So I think the bonus I can get is only $50 now.. which makes it irrelevant. I am thinking more along the lines of rakeback+continuing offers. It looks like a toss up between UB w/ rakeback and FTP w/ rakeback.

UB has some cash for points features, but I am not sure how long it really takes to earn points there. FTP has a point shop but doesn't seem to give cash for points.

Anymore feedback? Thanks so far.

since you've already made an account with FTP/UB i don't think you can qualify for rakeback at all

try cake poker's 100% deposit bonus + rakeback. though I haven't played there myself i intend to later on...i hear its soft there. you may have trouble depositing/withdrawing though

cakepoker is omfg hard -_-;; go away i don't want any lpers at cakepoker

FTP.. rakeback is the best shit ever.

Ipoker or FTP( not for .05/.10 like acdawg712 said)

Well when I signed up for UB and FTP I did it through liquidpoker's rakeback thing, but it didn't seem to work properly. I trying to get that sorted.. iunno.

I'll go check out cakepoker ;D!

sup i pmed you add me to msn Dark_azv@hotmail.com

lol everyone's hungry for affiliate rakeback ;p

I have a question regarding the Deposit Bonus for FTP. If I move USD 600 there, do I get automatically the 600 and could eventually take the money immediately? I guess you need to earn a certain amount of points?

u get the bonus withdrawn by 10$ realease at a certain points archieved
