Rakeback rooms?

[salty1]

It doesn't look like Holdem Manager is going to support Boss sites in the immediate future.. so I have to delay my planned sign up with Poker.co.uk . I was therefore wondering if anybody could recommend a trusted Rakeback room that offer good deals for soft 10NL sites... I'm don't really know anything about rakeback so any general advice would also be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Google it. I googled it ages ago and it gave me a list of which poker rooms offered what, including the onces that offered rakeback.

Thanks for the replies.. I obviously did google it myself before hand.. there are loads of them, but some aspects of it all I found confusing.

Say I sign up with a site through a rake back room.. say through rakeback.com I join Full Tilt..

Firstly Do I get rakeback through them AND still get my deposit bonus from Full Tilt?

or is it generally one or the other?

also if rake back site I choose turns out to be bad am I stuck with them since I obviously can't have more than one account with a poker room.. doesn't the rakeback room have you for life... so it seems like the rake back room one chooses could be a very important decision that could have serious long term consequences.. hence my request for trusted recommendations.. like which room do you use?

Rakeback is very good when you play often and at higher stakes. If you play at micro or low stakes, clearing signup bonuses can be better.. I play at the ongame network: almost all skins have 8x bonuses (see Ongame bonus - Poker bonuses at all skins of the ongame network). For shorthanded play, you can compare such bonuses with 45% rakeback. For full ring it gets higher but i don't know the exact number. For tournaments, an 8x bonus is 62,5% rakeback. The drawback for clearing signup bonuses is that you have to switch pokerrooms when you need a new bonus. But at low stakes, clearing a bonus can take more than a month..

It is true that once you sign up at a room, you can't register a second time. It can be good to wait with the big rakeback rooms until you reach higher limits and can get a good offer.
If you choose to play on a network (ipoker, ongame,..): you can sign up at every skin of the network. These skins offer mostly the same or similar bonuses/deals...
