Hi Everyone,

We are looking to add more reviews to our Poker Room Review section. I haven't played at some of these rooms so we're wondering if any of you guys have or would like to join one, and write up a review for us. We'll pay you $50 for each review used.

But you'll have to follow our exact format and guidelines.

The reviews need to be in the following format/order:
At a Glance Section
General Review/Details
Lobby Screenshot
Table Screenshot
Interface/Usability
Action
Technical Support
Fish
Bonuses

If you can follow our format, and include screenshots of the lobby and tables (500 pixel width), and give a complete, comprehensive, and un-biased review that looks and sounds like the one we have, we'll put $50 in your pocket! For each one that we use!

Except for the screenshots, each section above needs at least one paragraph. All ratings are on a 1 to 5 scale, not a 1 to 10 scale.

If the poker room is a skin of a network, any mentions of differentiating factors - ie- promotions, bonuses, freerolls that are specific to that poker room - should be included.

We need reviews for regular non-Rake-back rooms. Here are the ones we need. Please use the links below when signing up:
Alamo Poker - 100% Sign Up Bonus!
Best Poker - Win your seat at the WSOP in Las Vegas
Virgin Poker - $50 Daily Freeroll. No US Players
Please check out this sample poker room review for reference: Titan_Poker_Review

Here are the steps for the $50
1. Check this thread to make sure no one has dibs on the room you want.
2. Reply to this thread to put dibs on a room
3. Write the review and send me a private message when it is done.
4. If we use your review for the site then we'll give you $50
5. Please do not place dibs on a room unless you are an active part of our community (forum member for at least a month or 2 and at least 50 posts).


Thanks,
Eric

eric, when are you going to update the review of full tilt? it is horribly out of date. for example, the stat on average number of players is off by an entire order of magnitude. i am playing there now and there are 14000 people logged on. would be happy to do the edits for free if i just knew how.

ChezJ,

Please go to http://www.flopturnriver.com/reviews.../post.php?id=7 enter "ftr" as the user name and "review" as the password to get past the spambot filter.

Next please include everything that is out of date in your review so that we can see what changes need to be made to the html page itself.

Thanks,
Eric

ChezJ,

Thanks for posting on the the FullTilt page. I used the info to update the Number of Players and Beats Sections in the At a Glance Info near the top of the page.

Eric, how soon do you need these done by? I'm just clearing a bonus at Hollywood Poker which will take some time, but after that I am interested in doing some reviews...

If you give me say 2-3 weeks I can get onto one of these I was thinking of giving world poker exchange a whirl, which has a 100% rakeback offer, but I don't mind having a look at Best Poker...

Any other rooms you would especially like reviewed?

Oh, also, the hollywood poker room review is a bit out-dated as well. Average number or players has doubled, new bonuses etc...
Roll Rebuilding (for the second time). Current; $1600 from $300 (previous, $2300 from $15)

Dali25, We do not supply deposit money. We only pay for reviews afterwards(if they are good enough to use in our review section).

We need Alamo Poker and Best Poker asap. Once those 2 are done we have other poker rooms and casinos that will be added to the list.

Dali25, No offense but we are more comfortable having veteran members do reviews. I'm not sure what you are saying because under our system we can only receive a review for a given room from the one member who has dibs on the room.

Please read the first post in this thread again carefully. We only let one member put dibs on a room at a time. Once the member is done the review is either accepted or rejected. Only if it is rejected does it become open for dibs again.

Right now the only room that is open for dibs is Best Poker.

I'll do Best Poker.

I've done 2 or 3 for you before, and I'll have it done within 4 days of you confirming I got dibs.

Cool salsa4ever,

Yes, you have dibs on Best Poker.

You've done good reviews for us in the past. I'm glad you can work on this one.

Thanks Again,
Eric
