I only play at Paradise and UB, but not for any specific reason. Here are some quick reviews of each:Both sites offer soft games from micro-limits to low limits and both offer games in the middle to high limit. Both sites are very reliable and security is top notch. Both have a variety of games and tournaments. I've had no issues with either. I typically play 2-4 to 4-8 limit holdem and some SnGs and have no complaints. I also enjoy switching to other games such as omaha/8 and stud. I'd recommend both sites but will give you some comparasions/issues with each:Paradise: Offers in addition to traditional games 5 card stud and 5 card draw. The SnGs at $5 is $5 plus $1 (instead of $0.50) which is higher than UB but the higher SnGs are the same. Large hand retrieval function is superior than UB being able to quickly request the last 100 hands or so to be emailed directly to you. Number of hands per hour is slower than UB - an issue I really dislike.UB: Is mainly a holdem site and sometimes can be tough to find other games. Deals are much faster per hour. The last hand request is superior than Paradise, this allows you to see the opponents hand if he auto mucks on the showdown. The UltimateBuddy download is nice to have, not only to track your friends but also I add poor players to the list and can simply click on their name and go directly to their table.As you can see there are pluses and minuses at each but overall both have been great.
