** Refers to cash games $2 / $4 and below and SNGs / MTTs under $50
Full Tilt Poker
Rated as potentially dangerous waters, Full Tilt attracts many online poker professionals – particularly to the middle and higher limit games. There are plenty of fishy tables at the lower stakes, but new players are recommended to look out for the ‘low stakes grinders’ who play multiple tables and avoid them where possible. The generous $600 bonus (with referral code SNGPLANET) and many other benefits make up for the extra effort you’ll need to put in to select the fishiest tables.
Carbon Poker
The fishiest choice for US players, Carbon Poker is a relative newcomer to the online poker scene but is growing very rapidly – partly due to one of the best bonuses around (200% on your first deposit up to $600) and partly due to great graphics and game-play. With the constant promotions attracting ever more inexperienced players now is the time to give Carbon a try – get there before the sharks do and you’ll see your poker bankroll skyrocket!!
Titan Poker
Top Rated For Fishiness!! Titan has to be seen to be believed… there are huge fish at every game and every buy-in level. For example it is not uncommon to lose 3/4ths of the fi eld in a low buy-in MTT in the first hour! Titan retain players with great promos (Including our exclusive 100% to $500 sign-up bonus + $20 in free cash with bonus code SNGPLANET) and a wide selection of games including satellite qualifiers. This site has rightfully replaced Party Poker at the top of the fishiest poker sites league. Check them out today – you will not believe the difference!!
Party Poker
The original fishtank is still one of the loosest online poker sites around. The big brand name continues to attract new players even after their pull-out from the US market. Fish can be found at all tables at any time of day – the standard of SNG and tournamentplay is terrible – although some ‘grinders’ exist in the mid-limit tournaments. Regular reload bonuses keep their players coming back for more, the 30% to $150 sign-up bonus (with bonus code SNGPLANET) is very fast to clear too – another reason that Party have maintained their fishy status over the years… clear choice for those seeking the weakest online poker opponents.
Bodog Poker
Far fishier than many of their US-friendly poker site rivals Bodog are rated as a ‘safe harbor’ due to some pro presence in the mid-limit cash games and tournaments. The lower levels are certainly crazy – with many players coming over from the casino and sportsbook areas of this site and sitting at the tables to ‘gamble’. The limit of 3 tables keeps the SNG grinders away, making this site a great choice for those players looking for profitable Sit N Goes. Definitely worth a look for US fish seekers and worldwide players alike.
Pacific Poker
Another fishtank! Pacific is part of the 888.com group and attracts loads of players via the casino, these players have little or no poker experience and will often sit at the no-limit Holdem cash game tables and quite simply spew their chips to the table. The tournaments and sit and goes are also very soft – any player with a little poker experience should be able to turn a healthy profit at this site. Great interface and selection of tables are available too.
Poker Stars
Watch out for the sharks!! The biggest online poker site is also the home to almost every professional online poker player on the planet. Sure, new players and fish can be found here – but your expectation at the tables is to share profits with low limit grinding pros even as you book your winnings. Sit and Goes and tournaments are very similar. Yes, the multi-tablers can be beaten… the real question is to ask yourself why share the profits when there are so many fishier poker sites available online? Still, Stars are the number #1 site for a good reason – every SNG and tournament player should have an account there for the huge game selection and generous VIP club.
Mansion Poker
This is a relatively safe harbor after their recent move to the OnGame network. The cash game tables get noticeably tougher as you move from the lower to the middle limits. SNGs are generally soft and tournaments attract a good number of weak opponents, particularly in the evenings and at weekends. The $500 sign-up bonus (bonus code = SNGPLANET) is an extra incentive to check out this excellent poker site.
Absolute Poker
This site is a contradiction in terms of the fish. Absolute Poker are famous for offering re-load bonuses every month (if not more often!). This means that the cash game tables are constantly filled with ‘nits’ – very tight players taking very few risks in order to clear their latest bonus.Fixed Limit games are particularly tight. On the other side SNGs and to urnaments are very fishy –in fact this site would be rated as ‘Fishy Waters’ on these measures alone.The excellent interface with the recent Absolute 8.0 upgrade and $500 bonus (bonus code = SNGPLANET) are the first reasons to check them out – the monthly reload bonuses will give you (at least) 12 more in the next year alone.
