Default What to do with new real money account?

I now have real money on PokerNordica because of a win... but should I just cash it out or should I try playing on the site. Because I don't have Windows, I run the client under wine on a BSD *nix workstation. And the client does not run well.

The pros for keeping it on the site involve the smaller amount of players and the fact that I have rakeback on the site. I am also exceptionally lazy and it's just so easy to leave it on the site and play there.

But the cons are the software being flakey on me and the lobby crashing and not coming back (without a restart of the client) after 5-10 minutes. As long as I am on a table when it happens, I can stay there. But I am not able to do a whole lot. Some of the other cons involve certain features of the site crashing the program completely. For example, I can't change my avatar... it crashed the program. I can't open tournament details... crashes. I can't open certain other things (forget exactly which) without it crashing the whole thing. And it bugs me to have money on a client that frustrates me constantly.

Right now, I am just leaving it on there and giving myself time. I don't want to request a withdrawal and then change my mind and decide I really wanted to keep it on there.

How many sites do you have your bankroll spread out on? This makes a third site for me. Do you like to keep it spread out or all on one site? What do you think are the advantages of keeping it on one site and/or keeping it on several sites?
