Hi everyone, I found your forums while browsing around and thought I should sign up. I have never played a hand for real money for online poker and thought it might be a nice hobby. I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions what site to go with, and any other information that might be valuable to a novice.

I would also add to be sure to play at a site that gives a decent deposit bonus - that's a great way to add to your bankroll quickly, even if you don't do well right off the bat.

and welcome and good luck..
