Party poker has several skins, each of which has a sign up bonus. They are all part of the same network, so you have the same players. These are

empirepoker.com
multipoker.com
eurobet.com
intertops.com

If you attempt to sign up from a computer that already has party poker installed, you'll get an error message about already having an account on the party network. If you register from a different computer, you will then be able to play from your original one (you aren't doing anything shady by doing this, you will get a phone call from Pay-pro, who will ok you having accounts on multiple skins)


Beyond this, I would recommend

Paradise Poker ($10 in bonus for every 100 raked hands played ... limited bonus)
Absolute Poker ($10 in bonus for every 100 raked hands played ... nearly unlimited reloads available)
Poker Rewards ($200 in bonus for 1000 raked hands played ... part of the Prima network)
Pokerstars.com (currently a reload bonus offered ... $120 for around 600 raked hands)


In terms of quality of players, the party skins have the worst players, followed by the prima skins. Paradise, Absolute, and pokerstars all have decent players.

In each case, raked hands are hands where you are dealt cards and a rake is taken. You do not have to contribute to the pot for any of these sites.

Pacific has by far the worst players. But the software is horrible and you can only have one table open at a time.

I think Party, Prima and Crypto have about the same quality of players. Party's reputation as being very soft is a bit overrated. These days you have a lot of good players 4-8-12-tabling, which makes it somewhat tougher compared to in the past.

Lest we not forget that there are poker bots made specifically for pacific.

You can't "get" a profitable poker bot. You would need to program one yourself.

In doing so, you would be breaking the T&C of the site, and they would rightfully seize all your funds if discovered.

How would they discover your poker bot? never heard of such a thing? How could they possibly determine it's you not playing and your poker bot?

I know empire for one will scan running processes and even take screenshots (It's in their Privacy policy) if they think you are running a bot.
