hey guys, I was wondering which is the most profitable site for playing HU Hypers, considering quality of players, volume of players, rakeback offers and FPPs... So, fire opinions away!!!
For anybody above $60s, it's going to be PokerStars.
For players below that level, I think PokerStars can still be the place, but you start to see competition from the smaller rooms. Revolution (make sure to play on a non USA skin that does quick cashouts themselves, we offer Comeon, which does cashouts within a few days, if not 24 hours. Non USA guys on US facing sites are waiting over a month in many cases for Skrill cashouts, a scary prospect).
Merge might be an OK place, traffic has weakened recently but it's still plenty soft at the lower levels. The structure is likely changing there very soon to something closer or exactly like Stars.
I don't have good information on 888's games, that might be another option (we're about to have an 888/Lucky Ace offer for that network, formerly called Pacific).
Ipoker STs are raked too high for what they are (starting 75bb, super fast blind level increase, too steep of a structure).
Ongame I don't even think has hypers, but their rake is too high on average for all their games to make them best for any low stakes player.
Party rake is much too high to make it anywhere near best for a HUSNG player. In fact, it is probably the worst place for a HUSNG player to play among major sites.
I am already on Stars but with the increasing number of rakeback offers and promotions online flying over my head I was starting to wonder if I was making the right call playing there. But playing a different structure and an increased rake doesn't sound so appealing. I'm gonna stay with Stars, as changing networks at the time is a real hustle. thx a lot RyPac13!!

888/Luckyace have some decent traffic up to the 30s in Turbos. Yet Rake for Non-Turbos/Hypers is fairly high.
If you're not on FTP already wait until next year and there should be some good affiliate deals coming out
