First I want to say: I am NOT a Poker Pro" and I am NOT reviewing the Sites on the Basis of the Affiliate benefits. These are MY Reviews; (although I will give you objective information); they are still based on what I think of the Site and what I feel is important to me and other Low-Limit players. There are different TYPES of Sites, and I will group these together. There are Individual Poker ROOMS; There are "sister" or Portal sites that are Linked together. And; there are Poker Networks. Not understanding these types; sometimes causes confusion and trouble. This is because there are Poker "NETWORKS"; with what they term; the same "platform". This means is that they are REALLY the SAME SITE. But with different "SKINS"; meaning they look like different Sites). Although they have the same player base. Which means that there are people playing with you; but many are playing from different Sites. Note: Some of the Sites are what they call "Branded" or "private Label" This means they sell the right for a person or Group; to put their name on the Company site. Others are simply "Skins" created to add to the market share. The Different Sites DO have Promotions or Tournaments as well as Private Games & Tournaments not shared by the others. For that reason you may want to Downloaded more than One in the same Network. For each Site or Network I will give you a brief narrative & (my opinions or comments); the minimum Deposit required; the limits offered in their Table (Ring) Games; the FREEROLLS Offered; try to keep you up-dated on current Promotions & how to get the Best Bonus from them. With the necessary (LINKS & Bonus Codes) . THERE HAVE BEEN BIG CHANGES SINCE THE "UNLAWFUL INTERNET GAMING ACT" Some Networks no longer accept USA Players and many members of those Networks have changed to more accomidating Networks I mean no disrespect to our World-Wide Poker playing Friends; but; I do not support Sites that Do Not Accept USA Players. |

SITES: NOTES: |
PRIMA POKER NETWORK: (MICROGAMING) The PRIMA Poker Network (WAS the 'Biggest and the Best' Poker Network) Some US States that have more prohibitive Laws are restricted. (Some of their Independant sites have chosen not to support USA Players.) They have a large number of "skins". (separately designed whole sites; with the same player base.) Some of their Sites are "company sites"; some are in "groups" that share the same Promotions and Tournemants; but there are encreasingly more sites that are Independant "private label"; many Sites have recently "come over from other Networks. The following standard offerings and benefits are are common to all the Sites in this "Network". But; playing on more than one gives you access to "Private" Tourneys. Primarily; it is easier to add Prima rooms to your personal Sites. Once you create your First account with 'prima' and establish your "user name"' you have a master code number which can help you with all your accounts. You also get to keep the same name on all their Sites. For me this is a great convenience. (some sites make you register a user name for each sites -you cannot ge tthe "same one" because it is already "TAKEN". I think that is a real pain. They have some of the larger Tourneys & best "DAILY" Freerolls. a $1000.00 Freeroll several times a Day, for all time zones. They offer Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, 7-Card Stud, 7-Card Stud Hi/Lo, heads up and tournament play in all forms of poker. In addition tournament poker comes in many forms such as "take it all" limit poker, no limit poker, pot limit poker and others. They have Tournaments & Satellites with Multi-Million Dollar Prize Pools; WPT & WSOP Seats. They have a VIP Player Program; and a Large: $5000.00 New Depositor Freeroll. Table Limits go from: Micro $.05/10.00 to $100.00/200.00fixed & UP to $200.00/ 400.00Pot Limit & NL Minimum Deposit: $20.00 FREEROLLS: There is a Daily $200.00 Cash Freeroll 8:00 EST; $1000.00 Cash Freeroll 13:00 EST; Large New player Freerolls and Weekend Freerolls; and "Freerolls" which require rakes hands tro enter. Other Additional FREEROLLS vary with the Individual Site. Prima Sites with Additional Tournaments and/or features are listed below. Bonus's: vary with the Individual Site. |
GUTSHOT POKER This is one of the newer small Sites, that just joined Micro-Gaming. Simple and straight forward; jor some no nonsense Card Play. But a congeniel atmosphere with players from around the World. For those of you who like to take a chance on the "gutshot" this is the place!
