Top Five Softest Cash Games Online | Poker Strategy

It seems to be universally agreed that online poker is getting tougher by the day, as players are learning and getting experience at such an accelerated rate. The 'glory days' of soft online poker games, particularly cash games, are over.....or are they? There are still plenty of places to make relatively easy money in online poker, mainly places that attract new players to their tables while at the same time putting off pro players. This is my guide to the softest places to play online cash games, but shhhhh, don't tell anyone else.....

5. Lucky Ace Poker
A relative newcomer, LuckyAce is one of the first skins on the new 888 network.

Many of the skins on this new network are affiliated with online casinos and sports betting, which means that you get a lot of gamblers treating the poker tables like a house game. The player pool is low, which is good because you will soon learn who to avoid and who to sit next to. There is a $400 sign up bonus on 3. Lucky Ace Poker and an excellent rewards system.

4. Betfair Poker
Always has been considered to be something of a gold mine to those that frequent it, the traffic is low but the player pool is very soft and occasionally the high stakes action gets massive. What makes Betfair such a great site is that everyone who uses their world class sportsbook can play using their sports balance, which means that you get a load of tilted sports bettors out of their depths at the tables. Recent software upgrades make it much easier to multi table and Betfair Poker has a very impressive sign up bonus of $1500 (Not to mention exclusive $2000 Pokernews Freerolls when you sign up via our links).

3. Redkings Poker

The OnGame network is one of the faster growing networks around at the moment and is very popular across Europe. Many of the skins on the network are affiliated with online casino brands so expect a high volume of reckless gamblers, and from firsthand experience this seems like the site where players are most inclined to get their money in the middle asap. You won't be able to take them off hands, but when you do have the goods get ready to get paid. They also have five handed tables, which means much more action. Redkings Poker have a $1000 sign up bonus and an excellent VIP scheme, which could well see you become a member of their team of sponsored pros if you are prepared to put the hours in.

1. Sky Poker

Yes I know I have just jumped from 3rd to 1st, but with good reason, I can't separate a winner between the final two. Interactive TV show and poker room Sky Poker is doing wonders for poker in the UK and attracting lots of new players to the game, and therein lies the value. So many new players to the tables who don't yet know quite what they are doing and also the ease at which players can get on the tables (Via their TV or a web browser) means you will find all sorts of fish. With the tutelage the TV programming gives them, one day this won't be such an easy site, but until then it's one of the best places to play cash online. Sky Poker have also recently improved their sign up bonus to £500 as well as enhancing their loyalty scheme.

1. PKR pkr

In joint first place is another novel poker room, who like Sky Poker, has value coming from the fact that it is marketed to non poker players. PKR is so impressive from a graphics and playability point of view (With its 3D interface and customisable avatars) that it feels like a video game and attracts a whole host of new players to the tables, not to mention being so much fun people forget they are losing. Likewise, pro players turn their nose up at the site, deeming it a novelty and finding it hard to multi-table. Not only is it super soft, it is growing fast with more and more new players. Add to that an impressive $2000 bonus and that makes PKR one of the best value sites out there.
