Rake:
The poker room takes a standard rake of around 5% on the cash games.
Traffic:
While the concept is still catching on, it`s already proved pretty popular
- you`ll always find a game at the limit you`re after, and it doesn`t
take long for tables to fill up. Where you sometimes do struggle to find
a game to suit you is on the more unusual poker types, like lowball and
razz, especially at higher limits.
Software And Features:
The software is very sophisticated, as you`d imagine. A well thought out
set of algorithms sorts out one of the toughest questions in poker - who
played the hand better? The twin table concept is executed very well,
and you are walked through the process very well in the demo. All betting
and game actions are clear and easy to see, and game play is smooth and
well synchronised.
Supported Games And Limits:
You can play a variety of different types of poker - Texas Hold`em, Omaha,
Lowball, Seven Card Stud, Draw and Razz. Betting limits vary, but the
difference is that each stack is reset at the beginning of each hand,
so that both you and your opponent on the other table have the same chip
stack to bet with.
Deposit And Withdrawal Options:
Any major credit card.
Competition:
There is a different sort of competition on this poker room, as the emphasis
is more on sound and skillful poker play than the kind of go for broke
play you`ll encounter on most other sites where all that matters is whether
you win the pot of not, or whether you get lucky and draw out against
a superior hand. You`ll lose points for that kind play here - so expect
tighter, more solid play all round.
Player Services:
The dedicated service team is always on hand to help players out - given
that it`s a newish concept, there is a very good emphasis on helping players.
As a result, the support team that is on hand 24/7 is always very ready
to be involved. You can chat instantly via the poker software, use the
website interface, telephone or email.
Downsides:
The emphasis on points scoring is not really the game of poker as we know
it, to be honest.
