Poker Review: Poker.com is a brand new site that is still getting started. This is the perfect opportunity for beginners because they give a lot more money away. They have some good free tournaments for cash prizes every day. If you are looking to play for real money it is a gold mine for small no limit games. There are no real good players on this site ( or very few ) and lots of new players. The no limit tables are extremely easy to read, and pick up some over sized pots.
A nice feature they have on their site is a rating system for all players. The more you play poker, the more stars a person gets. They also change colors with skill as well. Players who win the freerolls are given trophy's to display next to their name. This is all great information for new players to the game. But make sure you don't read to far into the skill of the winners.
One major flaw to the site is that to play more then one table at a time they have to sit on top of each other. Forcing you to click between each tab when its your turn to act. Although the extra action in the game makes sitting back and collecting money very easy, it would be nice if players could see every table at the same time. This feature is probably one major reason they don't have a lot of players yet, but it also keeps really good players out. Software problems have always created some of the softest games.
Another observation is that they seem to be trying too hard to make their site look good. They have a few transitions that seem kind of pointless, and slow you down.
Poker.com did do well with the game stats. When you are picking a new game there is lots of information about each one, average pot size, percentage of players per hand and the number of hands per hour.
The final poker review is that it is a really good site to play if you like No Limit Texas Hold'em with less then $5 blinds. There is lots of inexperienced players in the games creating good opportunities for good players. Their free roll tournaments are another good reason to play because they have large prize pools and smaller playing fields then what you would find on other card rooms. First prize can be as high as $800! If those are the games you like to play Poker com is a great site to try. |
