The Skinny: Poker
RoomIs a very good
Online Poker Room, I'm sure you've seen
their recent commercials on TV and at
major sporting events. Poker Room.TV is
similar to the ads that other online poker
rooms place for the ".net" version
of their websites.
Here is the deal - poker room is a great
poker site that is well established, quality
support and great play.
Poker Room is Macintosh Compatible!
Macintosh users click
here to play poker. Create your own
private tournaments at PokerRoom
This is one of the coolest new features
we've seen online in a long time. You
can create your own private tournament
completely for free and invite your buddies
to play with you online. Catch up with
your buddies from college and challenge
them to an online poker tournament. It's
a lot of fun. Anyone can do it and it
is free to do.
Poker
Room's Sit-N-Go Structure Kicks Ass!
If you enjoy sit-n-go tournaments (10
player 1 table tournaments) then you should
certainly consider playing at Poker
Room. The setup is nice. Even at the
smallest buy in levels you
start out with 1500 chips compared
to 800 on sites like Party Poker.net and
others. The blinds go up slowly, 15 minute
rounds.
You can actually play like you are at
a Final Table and pick and choose your
spots. This is one of the special features
I really like about Poker Room, not to
mention that the medium stakes Sit-N-Go's
are very juicy.
The deposit bonus is $100 matched at 20%
This is a decent deposit bonus, but nothing
super special. You do get a free seat
into a'Shark Cage' Tournament
where you can battle it out with all the
other new poker room players. It's a freeroll
with a guaranteed prize pool, fairly common
for most poker sites.
They have a Points Payback system that
awards you for every time you play at
Poker
Room. Depending on how much you play
that day determines what kind of award
you'll get.
No software
to download
Mac users are welcome to play at Poker
Room. So is everyone else, many players
don't want to download another poker software.
At Poker Room you can play via a Java
applet. This is a pretty cool feature.
You can even play from your Cell Phone!
Yes - Poker from your cell phone. I'm
not making this up!
