    First off, I'm glad to see so many familiar names still going strong. I finally made the move to Costa Rica, arriving yesterday, thanks to Kristin and the P5's refugee program. I'm chomping at the bit to start, however it looks like I'm gonna have to wait a couple days to get back on stars and party due to the reactivation process. Would you guys recommend starting an account on any other sites in the mean time? bwin, 888, William Hill, titan, or any other decent site.

    I don't want to waste time or money. Thanks amigos

    William Hill and titan are on the same network (iPoker Network). They have an alright schedule, obviously nothing similar to stars but it still has a bunch of 10k+ gtds throughout the day

    I know a few people that play on 888 because of the software. They aren't professional poker players, but if the site is attracting players like them because of their software, I am not sure it should be ignored by sharks.

    I play on 888. The field is very weak. Why would you ignore that? There aren't that many software glitches, just a few annoying ones when they come up.

    the sites u will want to play on are stars, party, ongame network and ipoker network. most skins of ongame and ipoker require you to have moneybookers to deposit and settin it up is a hassle. however, goalwin skin for ongame, and celeb poker skin for ipoker both can do player 2 player xfers, and both sites are worth playing. welcome to costa rica, pura vida

    Good call, I definatly didnt mean Nug shouldn't play there at all (although lack of sharks is a plus for me) Just didnt think it would hurt to point out what i'd been hearing.

    I once had a software glitch on 888 where my hole cards wouldnt show up. I had to decipher what my cards were based on my hand ranking "e.g. A pair of kings" on a AK2 board... so i had no idea about suit or kickers or anything lol. Ended up bubbling the tournament :(

    888, party, unibet, entraction, titan, everest, pokerloco on sundays, all have good stuff. party and loco have a few good dailys and the others have 1 or 2, worth checking them all out.
