I am going to register to play online low limit poker. I am confused as to how to make a choice of sites-any recommendations-do any of on-line charge for cash out?

Ronald:

I have played at Poker Room, Ultimate Bet and Party Poker and have to rate Ultimate Bet a cut above both (although there are many here who will disagree).

Ultimate Bet has the best mix of games (NL, Pot Limit, Limit Holdem and Omaha) for low limits (there are many NL and PL games that the blinds are very low and the max buyin is $25).

Poker Room has good fishy action at $1-2 limit holdem, but not much else. I have beat those games consistently for about a year now. Party Poker is just too insane for me, but it is very popular and has the most action right now. Their sit and go's fill up in about 3 seconds. Just amazing the quantity of new players there.

I don't think any of the above charge for cashouts. You should get a Neteller account and move money back and forth through it. That is the easiest way to go.

For me, hands down Ultimate Bet is the place to be.

UB has good customer service and is a great site....

Party just has the worst quality of players at the moment, so that's where I play.

I agree that Party Poker has the worst quality of players but that can get frustrating too (although very profitable at times). When I play at Party I will either play the sit and gos (very beatable) or 6 handed tables. The 10 handed tables are really just showdown matches. There is no edge for having superior ability other than being more selective on the hands you play. Raising preflop with a strong hand just builds pots and you cannot raise for position, only value.

Anyway, thats my two cents.

I can recommend Ultimate Bet. The do things honestly and I don't know anybody who's ever had real trouble with them.
