What Makes On Online
Poker Room Great?
|
Even Though They All Look
Pretty Much The Same And
They're All Selling
Essentially The Same Few
Games, All Poker
Rooms Are
NOT Created Equal!
The Differences Can Go
Far Beyond The Look and
Feel of the Software.
After You've Played At
Several Different Poker
Rooms, You'll Start To
See The Tell-Tale Signs
Of A Quality Room as
opposed to the "Back
Alley" Type.
Here's A Few Things To
Consider Before You Plunk
Down Your Money...
The Number Of Players
It Simply Doesn't
Matter How Great The
Software Is or How Many
Game Variations Are
Offered. If You're
Sitting Alone, Staring at
the Virtual Walls
...What Good Is The Poker
Room?
The Great
Pokerrooms Always Have
Lots of Real Money Players
--- Playing!
Cash Outs
Don't Let a big bonus or
huge game selection be
the only criteria you use
when selecting a
Pokerroom. Make sure you
understand how to cash
out, where your money
will go and how quickly
you'll get paid (See Our
Cash Out Report
for More Info). Remember,
What
Good Is Your Bankroll If
You Don't Have Access To
It?

Customer Service
Know the Customer Service
Options. Is there a toll
free phone number? Is
there Online Chat (my
personal favorite)? or is
email your only option?
Make sure you can contact
a rep when you need one.
Here's A Tip:
Before You Purchase,
Contact Support and Ask a
few questions, Just to
see how responsive and
Knowledgeable they are.
Good Pokerrooms know how
important Customer
Service is and Will Make
sure their reps are well
trained!

Bonus/Comps
Free Money at sign-up is
always nice! But, it's
really not very
important. Remember,
there are always play
through requirements and
the more "Free Money" you
get the more you'll have
to play before you can
actually cash it out.
More important then a
sign-up bonus is the
ongoing comps that are
offered. Poker can be a
very exciting game, where
you have a pretty good
chance of consistently winning a few
bucks. Once
you find a poker room
that you like and are
comfortable with, chances
are you'll be playing
there frequently. A good
comp program can directly
add to your bottom line!
Ease Of Use
I'm including the
entire poker room
"experience" in this
category. Starting with
the first time you visit
the site, through the
download and sign up
process, making a
deposit, choosing a table
and of course, the actual game-play. The
easier it is to get all
of this done the better.
A clean, simple homepage
and intuitive, easily
installed software are
important factors that
shouldn't be overlooked.
And Finally...
I've outlined what I
think are the most
important factors in any
Pokerroom. Of course,
you'll need to consider
your own factors also...
For Example:
-
Do You Like Frequent
Tournaments?
-
What Table Limits Are
You Comfortable With?
-
Are You Interested In
Multi-Table Play?

these factors, Here's
