I think I named these in another post, I didn’t offer any aff links or the like, and yet the person asking the question repsonded in a manner that led me to think that the only person he thought was not answering him for personal gain, was an actual casino program, that answered in PM rather than out in the open for all to see..
I wasn’t real sure about advertizing again.. but here are my favorites, and why
I like Absolute Poker, I make a decent percentage from them, and they allow me to schedule my own private tourneys with them, whenever I want! The private tourneys there dont produce a ton of signups but they give my site GREAT exposure, and a few new depositors each time.
Their turnaround time when I need help isnt the greatest! Their refer a friend program ticks me off! As my loyal group members often use me as the ‘friend’ that refered them, trying to make sure I get credit.. as ive whined b4, I now get 50 bux when they deposit, and thats it!
Casino Partners is just starting to pick up for me. They have a weekly freeroll for each of my sites. So i stay pretty loyal. They actually approached me with the private freeroll offer, and a friend of mine says they wont have one for her. I don’t know what the qualifiers are for that.
I LOVE the guy @ No1pokerroom! He’s awesome, I have him on YIM, anything I ask is done within minutes.. their site, rakecity.com rather sux 
Another great couple of guys are the guys @ Purple Lounge, I worked very close with Alex for quite a few months when I first started, and he’s awesome!
A few things I look for are….
I start with the months payments thread, to see who’s getting paid.. I like that one, cuz its just people proud of themselves for a months work, and comparing who got paid for what first.. I don’t really CARE who pays first, I just want to see that they ARE paying, 1st or 20th, doesn’t matter, lets just get it here b4 the 31st
Then I move to the threads where ppl yell about whomever they are pissed off @.. those are all out.. sux for those programs that really are good, but theres a million of em out there, so why should I bother if someone was ticked off enough to write about it
Allthough, I do like some of the threads here, where someone was ticked off ata program, then the program mgr replys to the thread, and they get in touch.. and the original poster says the problem is solved.. Haven’t decided 100% though, I dont want to be in a situation where I must post on a public forum to get attention.
Some of the silly things I like are… exit consoles, turn around time when I have a problem.. who can I call.. will they host private games (if not I don’t bother with them at all!) and friendliness, offer me the world, if I don’t like you, go to hell
