PokerRoom.com

Great poker room, I've played at about 6 and I personally dig PokerRoom the most. They have some really cool features, great tourneys, fantastic interface, a lot of traffic, micro-stakes, and very good support. What can I say, I keep coming back. If you haven't tried PokerRoom, give it a go, you may not ever leave!

PokerRoom.com is a great choice. Killer graphics, lots of players and action, and compatible w/ Mac and Linux. Smooth gameplay and interface for the downloaded client. I haven't played the no download version. Pretty fishy at the lower limits where I play, still doing well at the low stakes no limit tables. I'll be playing here for a while.

I learnt to play at Pokerroom and I still like its look and feel best. The ease with which you can create private tables is a big plus; the software is excellent, and the percentage calculator when players are all-in is an excellent touch. 5-handed tables are good fun, the forum/community aspect is strong, and you can play poker without downloading a client. It's not all that fishy, and is not great for bonuses. But it's got the solidest and most professional feel of the 6 sites I have joined.

This room is no substitute for your bonus fix if that's what you're after. The look of the table is nice and the action is ok-- when it's working. I've had 4 disconnections in 3 days of using the site and I'm cashing out now without getting the bonus as it's a LONG way away. The bonus would be tough to reach at my low limits but I had thought it was doable. However, the disconnects torpedo any desire I have to get the bonus. I'd just as soon take my lumps and losses for now. Lots of loose action at the .25/.50 tables. The .5/1 tables are a little tighter but still rather loose, with accompanying bad beats that go with so many callers in a pot. I like loose tables but the frequent disconnects make this site and its bonus unplayable.

First time deposit on pokerroom last night. Getting decent bonus promotion. Interface is very fast and looks pleasant enough. Action buttons are a bit close together and time allowed for action is too short, especially if mutlitabling. Found full rings at .5-1 stakes easily. Waits were short. Players seemed quite passive and there were quite a few calling stations. Not bad overall for an aggressive player. Edit {Bad Beat Story Removed}

The players here are absolutely horrible. Lots of bad beats, but lots of money to be made if you can handle the cheesy graphics, and ridiculous egos in chat. Don't hit the play money tables if you're any good. I always like to hit some play tables to test a site before I "invest". I found you can actually be voted off! After kicking the crap out of the table, they held a vote. I was alowed to stay by one vote. Was not even chatting - just winning! They were actually going to boot me from their table for winning PLAY MONEY! I only play this site to when I am at my mother-in-laws because she has a MAC and MACS don't suppoert Poker Stars. (Okay I occassionally will play when it's more about making some easy money than playin in a fun, challenging game.) GREAT FOR FISHING. NOT MUCH ELSE.

Nice to look at, good bonuses, phone support, loads of fish, easy to use

I would say I have played on them all that are worth playing on and PokerRoom is quite simply the nicest looking, most fun place to play. They have great games (need more micro limits) for all levels with an easy to understand interface. Their download software is genius with the best features Ive ever seen (now gives the odds when you go all in) and theyve even got a pretty cool casino. The players can be tough (with their mouths aswell) but have found their support extremely helpful in all aspects. Lots of bonuses if you keep your eyes open, and if you do get bored, just visit their newly revamped Forum "Pokah!". Its Hilarious!!!

The interface is a joke. Why be the biggest if you can't produce something better than that? The games seem much easier than the other sites I've been to, but dealing with the clunky interface seems to get progressively annoying. Their customer service is horrible and I'm really not impressed with their bonus structure either.

I learned and started here....Was down about 400 the first 6 months, then I got involved with their posting site(pokah.com...little substance, since the Poker Rush of 2003/04), created my own group, made some decent posts and suggestions buttering up support a tad....bam was off and running, made all my money back plus $500, made a withdrawl for $300, leaving me with $175 of free money to play with, from that day forth it all started to unravel, I struggled a little for a bit, withdrew $200(2wkslater), kept $100...But was starting to get annoyed at the play and influx of young idiots and decided to chk out some other sites, didn't see too much better...so I went back. BIG MISTAKE! SINCE NOV. 24,I HAVE WON EXACTLY "TWO" BIG BETs ---had 73o in BB(4/10 left in 20+2 SnGo)flopped the nuts 773.T. K...chpldr went all in w/ AA at turn, take half his stack..He is FULL TILT...moves all in nxt hand, How sweet of him...CAUSE I GOT THE ROCKETS IN MY POCKET..He shows 23o, Flop:482.32....Game over for me! Over the last 6 mos(played, 1st time in while lastnight...$1/2ring, just to see) Started too good, AA, AJs, QQ, win all 3 hands, last one with trips vs KK, for $50 win, Next hand...I($72.5) get KK in BB, everyone chks,sb calls, I raise $4, same guy calls($73), evryone else folds...K72, is flop(rainbow), I chk, he bets $12, I re-raise to $24....he goes all in..I call...turn: 2 river: 2... I know it happens, but still...add it up. 2 withdrawls, couple of Neg replies to posts, started playing with other sites...NOT A PENNY IN PROFIT SINCE....OH AND ALL THOSE OLD PLAYER POINTS I HAD...ONCE EQUAL TO REAL $, ARE NOW WORTHLESS! I know more than a few with similar issues.... USED TO BE MY ONE AND ONLY, I KEEP TRYING TO GO BACK, BUT IT JUST ISNT AS GOOD AS IT USED TO BE!

Pokerroom is probably one of the best sites ive come across. Its better than partypoker and pacificpoker. lots of action all the time but the support kinda blows.

Played on there for over 2 years. Cards are definitely NOT completely random. You will see AA vs KK way more than is statistically possible. Lots of very high hands. I believe everyone gets even distribution but hands are hopped up to increase the action. Too bad because it is a great program with a great interface and very easy to use.

Pokerroom.com is the site i started out on playing, I think the Interface & graphics are still the best ive come across out there. theres always decent action goin on but the players here are a little better than the ones ive found on sites like party and empire. Other than the initial signup bonus i dont think they have many others, and when they do it seems to be par with what you find on other sites.

I like the interface and their tagging system. You can get action any time although there is less choice than at Empire/Party. I have found the customer support to be excellent and their payouts over 1k are fast and basically at no cost to you. They do have occasional issues with connectivity but in the one tournament where that affected me they paid out the remaining participants on a pro rata basis. I like the mix of players, there appear to be fewer whiners than at some other sites. Bonuses are about average, nice free tournaments for starting/micro players.

For what it's worth I really enjoy playing pokerroom.com. Not to say that it doesn't have its faults but overall I think it's a great site. Unfortunately, I own a mac and since I don't want to spring for Virtual PC I'm forced to play on sites that accepts macs. And the list is small. But eventhough I have a lack of choices I have no complaints. The sign-up process was painless got my bonus pretty quickly and I haven't had huge connection issues. The site is a breeze to move through and there's always action. The interface is simple and direct. The characters that represent the players get a little tiring to look at after awhile but it's not going to stop me from playing. As for the action. Tons of tables both ring, multi and single table. I stick to the single table action and can find a game at the level I want to play no problem. Technical support: on a technical level I haven't had any huge issues but I will get bumped off on the rare occasion. As for technical support: I wouldn't say it blows but I sent them two emails about collusion and heard nothing back. I would assume that this is their highest priority so it's a little bit of a negative. But since I sent the email I haven't seen the players that were cheating So hopefully they took care of the problem. As for ease of game. I'll just put it this way... There are plenty of fish in the sea.

Technical/Customer Support - worst responsiveness and decision making of any online poker company. They fail to answer correspondence regularly and block people based on hearsay and poorly researched information. Rules are not evenly enforced. Servers fail often. Split in servers does not accomodate planned games for all parties. Forum moderation is laughable. Lowest possible rating.

I've played at PR since 2001. Still do, but that is changing as I try other sites. I play the SNG's almost exclusively. (I do like PR's SNG's, but one too many disconnects when down to 4 handed is getting hard to take) Interface: I like it. But its the 1st one I learned too, so take that for what its worth. Action: I never have trouble finding a game. Technical/Customer support: Absolutely Terrible. I've had numerous emails that have never been responded to. (numerous = more than 3, less than 10). One email to report collusion: no reply. Three times on disconnects in critical situations: no reply. Pokerroom does warn of no allin protection, so you are forewarned. (I've experienced far more than 3, but these were pokerrooms system and had a direct impact on outcome). After a withdraw was rejected by neteller I found the phone number to support. That got fixed in less that an hour. (more on collusion can be found at pokerrooms forum Pokah! "A warning to MTT players". Judge for yourself). Ease of games: I've went from knowing nothing to better than holding my own. IMO I think there is a good mix. Bonus/promotions: A pokerroom plus. You can earn bonus points through tournament play. Not many offer that. I find it fairly easy to achieve in @ 2-3 weeks.

Pros: good UI, excellent SnG structure (never have to wait), good range of buy-in levels for the serious player. Cons: poor hand history function (one hand at a time), $1 fee on $5 SnG (most others are $0.50) so you play $10+1 or higher, no micro limit tournaments, very few freerolls. Regarding the players, I like the mix. Some fish, some tight, some loose.

I have been playing on Pokerroom for 6 months now and it is great. The graphics are so awesome, way better than any other site, except for maybe pokerstars.com. The main attraction is easy to use interface, getting to tables is so easy. Especially useful if you and a friend are trying to get to a table...they load quickly and actually have names so it is easy to tell a friend what table you are at. PartyPoker, the so call best in the buisness, is terrible with this, their tables just have a seven digit number. Also they have a feature where you can find out if a friend is online and playing at their site with a playersearch button. Pokerroom is the cream of the crop when it comes to online poker. Some times the beats seem exceedingly frequent and bad, but that is just poker. People dont' like to loose and when they do they want to blame the site, not their play. I would recomend pokerroom to all!!

Overall I think the server itself has set the standard for usability and attractive sophisitcation. However, I think the majority of the players on the server aren't as good as you'd see elsewhere. I still prefer this server over most, for the look of it, and how easy it is to use. Nothing about it is confusing except maybe the players skills. Which could be good or bad!

Pokerroom.com seems to have fewer frills than any other site out there. The GUI is simple and easy to follow. The button commands make moving chips into pots without a mouse quite simple. The sit-and-go qualifiers are plentiful and at most put you one step from making substantial money. The monthly draw gives you a chance to earn a fully paid seat to a WPT event, and the multi-table tournaments are smooth with fair payouts. Plentiful bad beats make some folk refer to the server as Jokerroom, but that is just poker and the emotional roller coaster associated. All in all, pokerroom is your basic, no non-sense online poker server. I love it!

Attractive interface. Easy-to-earn bonuses, though, I didn't get many reload bonus offers. Plenty of action. Playable on ANY computer with a web browser. Only drawback is the Windows download client still goes through the web for common features like cashier and hand histories. This isn't too much trouble, though, as I don't need those features very often.
