I've only bet sports my whole life but would like to play a little poker just for fun. Have never played online and looking for where it's best to play low limit cash games, that's all

Can't go wrong with either as far as the skill level at both sites. I prefer to play on BOL because Bovada's tables are anonymous so you don't even know who your playing which I hate.

Decided against online poker and just sticking to sports which I'm good at, I don't play poker regularly maybe 3-4 times a year. If it ever becomes fully legal online and regulated than I will maybe just for fun but until then I'll pass, I just like sports

global poker is fully legal. you get paid through paypal. they use a sweepstakes model so they have to give you free sweepscash if u mail in to make it legal.

Between those two I would take bovada.
My favorite place right now is 5Dimes. There is hardly any traffic, but when there are games playing it is super juicy. Plus, they have the best rakeback of anyone.

P.s. Mango if you get the poker itch look for your local cardroom and support the lifestyle pal. USA online poker was brutally murdered on April 15th, 2011.

Bol. Is best because you know who you are plaYing against. Take notes on them. Bol has bad beat jackpot at .50/1.00 nl.

Local card room. So many scandals in online poker over the years, no trust should be given AT ALL to any online card rooms.

Valid opinion. Hard to disagree. It just can't be that hard to give a player Super-user ability.
And let's think about that:
1) You could give Super-user ability to see ALL CARDS face-up.
2) Let's take it one step further. Why not give Super-user ability to know what the RUNOUT will be? Imagine being able to play your hand w/ 100% clarity!
Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?

Collusion is rare if any at micro to mid stakes (5/10 and below). It's the higher stakes ($10/20 $20/40 etc) you should be weary of. With that said I've played on BOL a lot and never suspected any shady things but I was only playing small tourneys (cash prizes of $5000 or less) and small stakes cash games.
