Which smaller sites still have overlays and bad players?

Is there a site out there that has big overlays and bad players?

Bodog use to be the poster child for routinely huge overlays...who owns that title now?

Seems like some of the lesser known sites would be a good place to look for an edge for a small-mid stake grinder.

Back in the day, poker sites would spend just about any amount of money to get players in the door and keep them interested.  A lot has changed as the market has been maturing, and there are many fewer freebies these days.  There are definitely softer players on Cake and also some of the other medium sized sites.  Merge Network (Carbon Poker, Poker Nordica) has some very soft players as well.  But you're not going to find massive overlays and a ton of donkeys anywhere these days except the Bodog $100k Gtd. every Sunday.  There are just too many people out there now who take advantage of every good offer, and because of that, the offers eventually got to be not as good.

I keep hearing the play on cake is pretty bad...

I've never opened an account there...what's my best option as far a bonus? 

Does rakeback apply to tournaments?
