You get $16 free just for opening an account, no deposit required.

That's where the fun stops.

When sitting in a ring game, you cannot rebuy to the max buyin until you bust out. I got "You can;t buy more chips. You're in the middle of a game!"

Oh, silly me....

You can;t have more than one window open at a time. One play window that jumps between games when the action is to you.

The graphics are cool, kinda 3d with animation.

I used to play there. If my memory is correct:
You can rebuy at any time you are below the table max. You just have to click fast enough I think.
You can also play multiple tables, but you have to adjust a setting in the options for it to work correctly.
The graphical interface is very very nice. You can even choose your character instead of getting somebody based on your seat. The characters talk and are animated. This is cool, but it actually slows down the number of hands you play per hour. That is the main reason I left that site.
Another reason I left the site is the number of users is miniscule relative to PP. Therefore, finding a full table is usually difficult. The smaller group of players can work in your favor however. You run into the same people often and once you identify their style of play, you can take advantage.

For comparison, I would give PP a A- and Noble a B.

Ok,
I was only for alittle bit last night and couldn't easily find those settings to tweak while playing the two tournies. I was heads up in one when the other started.

Im up from my free 16$ so I'll spend some more time there.

What did you mean by "click fast enough" in relation to rebuying during a game?

You just can't rebuy during a hand you are involved in, like at any poker room i've played at.

By the way i know you can play multiple tables, but is there a way to have them so you can look at both at once? I haven't been able to do this.

Yeah, "click fast enough" I meant you were already on the next hand. I wasn't trying to be a jerk either. It should work.

The window size is big so they would overlap eachother almost completely unless you have dual monitors.

They don't really give $$ reload bonuses there. They give you a free entry into their 5k freeroll if you deposit during a certain time. You can deposit and cash out after you register and still play (I'm 90% positive). I'm in the one the first week of march. Half the people don't even show up so you have a good chance to get ITM.

Oh ok. I forget what room it is but they let you click to rebuy even if your in a hand but it doesnt show up until your current hand is over.

I dont have dual monitors but even with some overlapping itd be easier to swtich w/o having to go to the tourny lobby and go to seat.

All in all its a nice room, I just haven't gotten used to it yet.
