Skill-gaming Sites

I know a few EF people who play some of these.

I play on King quite a bit. Its pretty slick and user-friendly, with a good variety of games. You have a rank in each game and can play others for cash (or free). Not much value in the 2-player games, but knockout cups and multiplayer tournaments can be quite profitable until you've reached your natural ranking level. Lots of freerolls and stuff too, although fairly small prizes in them. I'll post some strategy guides and links to video-guides some time if others are interested.

I've also played on Worldwinner, similar type of setup as King, but its not quite as polished. I don't really play much on it, having to pay tax every time you win and then chase it back later is annoying.

I'm recently trying out a newish site called SkillJuice. Its still in its infancy really, but its a nice looking site, although the games are a bit basic at the moment. There's not many players and loads of freerolls that are easy to cash in (just turn up and you have a decent chance of being drawn against a no-show ). The tournaments are live knockouts, which is quite fun but a bit of a hassle as you have to remember to log in at specific times.

Anyone played on any of the other similar sites?

I'm interested in those guides you mentioned. I like winning money
