I like it, you can totally customize your person and you have all these actions you can do at the table.
The game moves a bit slow but that's because it's all play money and there are a lot of people in every hand.
Once the final version comes out I'll probably throw some money in here and play sngs when I'm bored w/ ring. It's a great concept.

After the novelty wears off, it all comes down to "How +EV is it to play there?"

Depends if making "chicken-noises" before going all in is +EV.

If it let you upload a pic of yourself to use as the texture map for your player's face, it'd be swank.

I spotted this thread and thought I'd let you know about a couple of things. There will be an option whereby you send a picture into PKR and we face gen you so that you play as yourself.
Also for those of you who are keen to beta test PM me your username or email address that you registered with and I will put you on the next list of people invited to play.
Cheers,
Andy (PKR)

Oh, wow. That's actually pretty cool.
Will that option be available to all new players? Or only as a bonus for those with lots of frequent player points or tons of tourney wins or something (like at Full Tilt)?

Hopefully this doesn't go bust like the previous one called Stackspoker.com. Can't wait till the final version comes out.

Okay, got my beta key. It's a long weekend in the UK so I'll definitely be on sometime. If there's a player search feature, look out for me - my username is Zerbombt.

When they've finished the beta testing i guess. They haven't even started their MTTs and presumably they'll want to get everything right before they go live. Other than the freerolls they're not going to allow real money games because of the potential problems when bugs make games crash.

The PKR software is vastly slow on my up to date (but running too many processes) laptop - I'm afraid I've given up for now.

Me too. So I queried it and got a "thanks but we have too many signups" reply.
