I think that you can make any program work for you as long as you have the following 3 T’s:
1. Trust
2. Traffic
3. Targeted Niche
Before choosing who to promote, I would choose a niche. Lets say that you like poker tournaments and you want to make a site about poker tournaments. Well, the first step is to build your site and its content (strategy), then the second step is to figure out which site(s) have the best tournaments, then write content based around that.
Also, as for PokerStars, you can make a buttload of money if you are sending them just 250 RMP a month. They give you $300 CPA (300×250=$75,000).
