    True, However I was wanting to get a real time answer. Seeing how the online landscape for U.S. players changes on a weekly basis.

    Sure. If he is smart, he will. Cashout times change, certain promotions change. Have multiple accounts, play on the site that currently is leading the pack. Makes perfect sense.

    It depends on what you play 4swired.

    I'd say Bovada is the best for cash games, sngs, and $10-$20 MTTs. Their only real tournament for the bigger player is their Sunday $100k and every site has one of those. They do have a daily $60 10k guaranteed but that's about it. Their cashout times had been up to 8 weeks but now people are reporting getting paid in less than two.

    Merge is better for the bigger tournament player as they have daily $100 and $200 buy ins. And even if you are a small player, they have tons of ways to satellite into those. Cash game traffic is okay on the big ones like Carbon. Cashouts are taking 4-6 weeks.

    America's Cardroom is probably best for the small player. They have a daily $27 tournament and okay traffic in smallish cash games. And they can issue you a debit card so payouts can be received within days.

    Allen exactly, why wouldn't someone switch back and forth...

    I haven't played since BF, so I am ready to get back into the mix of things. I've just been playing live since.
    I have a smallish BR and actually like playing SNG's more than cash games, and also like to get into some small to mid MTT's.
    I realize that no site will come close in traffic to PS or FTP, however.
    So with that being said which site has the quickest tables fill up for low to mid range Sng's in your opinion? I know you recommend Bovada, but I never really cared for their setup when it was Bodog..So what would be your next best option?

    Carbon is the only one that works for me but you still have to deal with slow payouts (it is what it is).

    Skillbet is another one I started playing that's duplicate poker but fun (in a different way).

    Otherwise I play primarily live if I get motivated enough to play.
