I've been playing live for 2 years and just started playing online a few weeks ago. I just finished a second straight brutal day. I've playing 1/2 Limit on Absolute, where the tables seem to be extremely tight. Probably average fewer than 3 seeing the flop.

Anyway, I play a very tight, aggressive style and follow the starting hands for tight games as illustrated in SSHE. I'm getting killed. (Emphasis added.)

Well, the only reasons to play at Absolute are:

1. Bonuses
2. To learn to play at a higher limit without having to actually move up and risk more money in a tougher game.
3. Loyalty because they really seem to have good customer service (and did I mention the great reload bonuses?)

Actually, I've played a bit of $1/2 limit and found it as you said, full of rocks. You do better to play a bit loose, raising preflop occasionally with marginal hands trying to take down the blinds. Otherwise you'll get blinded out since you make so little on your monster hands.

Once you clear all your bonuses, move to Party or Pacific.

can't remember all their names, but bonuswhores.com, beatthefish.com and one other (name) site rate sites for softness.

the site whose name i can't remember was really good. why isn't it coming to me? i can even see the scoring system.

pacific, party and bodog seem to rate highly for softness, although i've had some frustratingly tight games on party.
also, i like sites that aren't heavy on bonuses, no pockertracker, lots of europeans and maybe sports betting. and i have medium experience at this.
