Service:
Pacific Poker takes a back seat to no one when it comes to service. Because
of their affiliation with casino-on-net.com, they are already proven and
tested to be one of the leaders in the industry. Customer support is
available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to help you with any concerns you
may have. They have plenty of deposit and cash-out methods you can use to
fund your account. In addition, they have the best hand history system I've
ever seen: You can get a complete replay of every hand you've ever played
there, at any time. It's like watching an instant replay of hands you've
played. They are always on the lookout for possible cheats (integrity is
something they excel in). If you want great service, Pacific Poker is a site
you should look at.
Pacific Poker
has many promotions for new players, as well as regulars, and offer you free
money just for playing. You get a 25% bonus on your first deposit for one.
Second, you can accumulate points for each hand that you play, and then
these points can be redeemed for free cash. They are also running a
promotion right now where they pay those who accumulate the most points
bonus sums of free cash. $500 to the player who accumulates the most points
sounds pretty good to me. Just keep watching their website because they add
new promotions all the time.
Game play:
The game play at Pacific Poker is fairly good but does have a few drawbacks.
One is the speed in which the cards are dealt. The cards are dealt out at a
much slower pace than other sites, which in turn creates less hands per
hour. Some people may enjoy the slower speed because it allows you more time
to think. If you're a new player, Pacific Poker could be a good fit for you.
The "call/fold/raise" buttons are simple to see and use and players chip
stacks are always in clear view. You will never have to worry about their
server going down or their system crashing: They work hard at maintaining a
smooth, problem-free gaming environment. The cards are very clear and I
would recommend
Pacific Poker to any new players who want to really get a
look at how the online poker game takes place.
Games:
Right now,
Pacific Poker only offers Texas Holdem, Omaha high, and 7
card stud. They offer these games for "real" and "play" money along with 1
on 1 tables. The limits at Pacific Poker go from 5 cent - 10 cent games all
the way up to $15-$30. For now, they don't have regular tournaments, but I'm
sure they are on their way. I got the impression that Pacific Poker is very
close to expanding their poker room and I can expect to see more games and
more tournaments in the near future.
Players:
Ever since I've seen this site on the net, I've noticed it may be the
loosest site of all the online poker rooms. Casino-on-net.com already has a
huge client base and it is obviously spilling over into their poker room.
There is some money to be won at
Pacific Poker for the good players because
there are a lot of gamblers who are playing poker for the first time. They
always have many different games going, with many different limits. Whether
you want a small $1-$2 game or a big $15-$30, you will find it at Pacific
Poker. I think the number of players at Pacific Poker will keep increasing
and they could be the busiest poker site of all, one day. If you like lots
of action and loose, fun games, Pacificpoker.com could be the site you're
looking for.

Service:
The service at
Party Poker is second to none. They have constant, 24 hour,
live support to answer any questions you may have regarding any aspect of
your online poker experience. Players at Party Poker are able to play in a
fun and safe environment where all of their data is protected. All
communication between your computer and their servers are protected by
industry standard SSLv3/TLSv1 encryption algorithm security system. Table
stats and hand histories are clearly visible and available at any time.
Party Poker hasn't been around as long as some of the other sites but they
have proved themselves to be one of the leaders in players privacy and
safety. Their integrity is second to none when it comes to dealing with
cheaters. You can be guaranteed to get top of the line service when playing
poker at
Party Poker.Party Poker is the king
of giving away free money to its players. You get a 20% bonus on any amount
of money you deposit into your poker playing account. You also get a free
$50 if you refer a friend and they make a deposit at Party Poker. Now get
this,
Party Poker will pay you 10% annual interest on the money you have in
your account over $100. Let's say you have $2000 in your account at all
times over the year, then you will receive a total of $200, for free, paid
to you in monthly installments. Check it out at their web page, it's even
better than it sounds. Along with all the free money they're giving away,
they have other promotions to attract players. They are currently offering
seats in their "Party Poker millions" tourney where the winner gets a cool
$1.5 million. If you sign up after clicking on my banner, you will receive a
free entry into the "Party Poker Millions" tournament. There's so much
stuff, you really need to go to their website and check out all they have to
offer. It's amazing!
Game play:
Party Poker doesn't have the most detailed graphics at their site but it
is maybe the most straight forward. Your connection to their server will
always be constant and disruptions are rare. Party Poker's table graphics
are fairly simple but their software is very user friendly. They do have
characters sitting at the table but you have no real choice in who you can
be. Your chip stack and the stacks of others are clearly visible to you
while you're at the table and the poker chips are simple and easy to see.
The cards are small but easy to read, and the "call/fold/raise" buttons are
simple to see and use. While the game play at Party Poker may not be the
most realistic or most pleasing to the eye, their software is easy to use
and I would recommend anyone just starting out to try Party Poker.
Games:
Party Poker offers three different types of poker games : Texas Holdem,
Omaha (high and lo), along with 7 card stud (high and lo). They offer all
these games for "real" and "play" money. Their "real" money tables start as
low as 50cent-$1, all the way up to $10-$20. Along with their "Party Poker
Millions" tournaments, they also have real money and play money tournaments
going all day. They offer many multi-player tournaments that go all day
long. I love to play in these tourneys because with all the players Party
Poker has, the prize pools are huge.
Players:
I personally think that Party Poker is one of the loosest sites on the net.
They do a lot of advertising all over the web and I believe that attracts a
lot of first time poker players. First time poker players are the key to
making money at an online poker room. I have been fairly successful playing
at Party Poker and their client base of new players keeps on growing. They
are a very busy site with tons of action at all limits. They usually have at
least one big game going all the time and plenty of smaller limit games
running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. All in all,
Party Poker is one of the
best sites to make money at, whether it's winning at the tables or making
free money through all their promotions. |
