    You can still play on the same Network(Yatahay). You can play on True Poker/Doyles Room and get RB and play against the same players. In a way, you would be better on True Poker with RB anyway.

    Not the same as it was, but it's far from dead. I've still been able to make a significant amount playing on some sites.

    Merge and bodog....cake and others can't be trusted
    I agree to stay away from Cake. I will add that I think PokerWorld is fine to play since they have their own Cashier and are owned by TheGreek. I still don't play on PokerWorld personally because I would be supporting the Cake Network and therefore supporting Cake indirectly.

    I do think Minted Poker and Everleaf is an option though. They are licensed by Malta which require player funds to be segregated in the same manner PokerStars was.

    FWIW, I don't think you can trust any site 100% as we learned on Black Friday.

    No, I haven't played on Bodog recently. I prefer to play on sites with RB since Rake is so ridiculously high for multi-tablers. I've made Cashouts at both Minted Poker and True Poker. They both have good RB/promos, fast Cashouts, good Support, and soft competition. The traffic isn't the best on either which is why I play on both.

    Agree. I'm very very surprised Everleaf hasn't gotten more attention after Black Friday. I play on Minted Poker and they always have good promotions, RB, support, Cashouts and plenty of soft competition.

    The main downside is the traffic as you mention. It has gotten a bit better recently. They combined the 3 Everleaf Networks (Regular Everleaf, U-Poker, and ITA) which means there is a bit more traffic then previously.

    For Minted-Everleaf Poker, what is the best way to deposit money for U.S. players?

    I think it depends on what your looking for. I multi table so Bodog is not going to be the best site for me. They have a 4 max limit on tables and no Rakeback.

    If your speaking in terms of just traffic, then Merge is #1 and the Cake Network has just overtaken Bodog recently by a slim margin.

    Bodog is one of the best with Cashouts and Support. They are also one of the best with overall Traffic.

    Basically, what may be the top site for me, may not be the top site for you.

    many choices of games--not just no limit....

    5 dimes is on the Yatahay Network. The 'flagship skins' on the Yatahay Network are True Poker and now also Doyles Room. If your only playing poker your probably better at True poker or Doyles Room so you can get RakeBack.
