    Default FTP or PS for micro stakes cash games

    Just wondering where the community thinks the best place to play at is. I favor FTP's UI, but I want to maximize my profits.

    Default the best play to play

    lately, it's Poker Nordica
    AP offers plenty of fun, but lately, I can't win there. I keep thinking that other can see my cards.
    FTP has the present danger of donkgang, and Pokerstars is about the same.
    Sign up at Nordica, cool site, and less bad play (in my opinion) But remember to sign up through RAKEBACK!

    WTF is donkgang?
    Trying to provide some serious analysis:
    I would go with Nordica, afaik the rake at 5c/10c is still only 5%, as it is at PS, but fulltilt charges 10% rake at that level, so if you're playing 5c/10c, dont do it at fulltilt.
    Also nice to get rakeback + bonus on Nordica, and they have nice 10k and 50k freerolls regularly, so I'd recommend them

    As an aside, I'm not sure saying that Nordica has LESS bad play is a point in its favour...what, you want your opponents to be MORE competent? :/

    I fully agree with Buildmo and irish if you're playing micro stakes Poker Nordica is the way to go PLUS you can get rakeback too. The comp points build up very quickly and their weekly and monthly freerolls are the biggest I've seen...weekly being 10K and monthly being 50K. Now go, make money and smile

    I see you talking but all I hear is blah blah blah

    Stars:
    +good game selection
    +5% rake at the micros
    -no rakeback
    -sucks for casual player as you lose your bronze/silver/gold/plat/sne standings if you skip a month
    +provide monthly freerolls based on your level, this makes up for lack of rakeback but sucks if you cannot play them and obv you need to cash (it's a mtt)

    FullTIlt:
    +good game selection
    +27% rakeback
    -10% rakeback
    +good for casual player as your effective rakeback is constant regardless of how often you play


    Any other site might provide you with lower rake % and also give rakeback but traffic will be poor. Check out pokerscout to make sure the times you play have lots of people playing or it's not gonna matter if they charge low rake and give high rb if you have a hard time finding a table to play at. I busted my PokerHeaven roll because of this very reason, I played above my roll because of low traffic...now I won't redeposit there because of crappy software and the whole problem with Boss/Trillion

    What, exactly is " donkgang'? I'd 'preciate some one defining that for me.
