    Is there any good online poker in the US yet?

    I have been out of poker for a while, outside of playing cash games on Bovada every once in a great while to burn some time. Bovada sucks ass but I'm not sure what other options we have in the US right now.

    Are there any good options at all? That aren't limited by state residence, etc?


    Edit: I guess that shit stain place is called Ignition now, I forgot.

    The only site I'd trust right now is Ignition and they also have probably some of the softest action online these days. They did fuck up recently and changed there reg cash games to auto seat fills which basically killed a lot of the action.

    ACR/Blackchip is a whole FUCK of a load lot harder but you can find games.

    I still have some money on BOL but I'm just playing HUSNGs there and basically waiting til football season and hoping a bunch of sports bettors start playing poker.

    Ignition is the softest but as mentioned they ruined their cash game seating process.

    BetOnline software is nice but limited traffic.

    ACR traffic is okay but full of regs.

    I think BOL has passed Ignition in terms of best site for US players. They have better software and the games are close to as good as Ignition. They are pretty quick with bitcoin cashouts and deposits too, imo its the best option Americans have atm. Ignition is really ruining their site but I don't think they really care lol . . .

    Global Poker will get crushed at some point by trying to dodge the law with some sweepstakes angle and for using just paypal to do their transactions.

    I've heard the games are really good so play them while you can but I wouldn't advise anyone keep much money on there and you risk having your paypal account closed.

    This could be true. I can also vouch for BOL being super quick with bitcoin payouts. They also offer litecoin depo and withdrawal as well, I believe.

    Carbon Poker has a few decent MTTs. Big fields in the Sunday 4 pm $15. Looser players than Ignition and ACR.

    Meant to say 0.5/1.00 and above but if there's only 1 0.5/1.00 doubt there is much higher stakes running...

    Thanks for the info anyway...

    That what concerns me but the games are really soft and really fun.

    Whether it's the lack of huds, ECT ECT or rake back it really is an enjoyable Game of Poker I've only deposited once and have withdrawn three times, all overnight...

    They are a bunch of Grinders and Regs that play there but can make profit honestly because of the fish inclusive environment.

    For some reason I kind of think they'll be ok.

    But then again I'm just a micro player who plays for the fun of it and the Love of the Game, what do I know.

    I've had a good experience at gp in my first week of play having deposited $20 and withdrawn $200 within 24 hours. The verification was fast and easy despite the complaining at two plus two and the global poker rep claims they will be putting more deposit and withdraw options on the site even considering Bitcoin. I'm still playing here at the .25 .50 plo and nlhe hoping to run it up to play in 1-2 by this weekend - I'm just a micro player but I've sat and watched the higher stakes games and it seems they are so loose and aggressive that even nut peddling could be a winning strategy. The highest game running is 10-20 plo and I am regularly seeing players sitting on 5-8k stacks.
