Full Review of PokerRoom

Summary (8.33)
PokerRoom is the one of the worlds top online poker rooms, in part because of their no-download poker room feature. Their download client is full of great looking graphics, three-dimensional poker players, and a smooth running software. Poker Room.com offers a large number of 6-handed poker tables, which lead to faster action and more hands per hour. These tables can be pretty wild and crazy, so keep an eye on your bankroll. PokerRoom is one of the best online poker rooms available for Mac Poker players, as they can play on standard tables without having to download the software to their system.  Poker Room continues to bring in new players through their creative advertising campaigns for PokerRoom.tv, their play money site.

Software & Interface (8)
PokerRoom.com offers the ability for you to be represented as a realistic 3D rendered avatar. The 3D design of the tables and players helps make PokerRoom.com & PokerRoom.tv the most attractive online poker rooms. And for Mac and Linux users, PokerRoom’s no-download web-based Java applet is the best choice for online poker, although Full Tilt Poker has also recently added Mac compatible software. The lobby is a little confusing at times with a large number of tabs in every direction, and the fact you have to click on a room to see the stats is not very appealing. However, once you get used to the setup, the lobby does offer a great deal of information, from players names, chip stacks, and even internet delays, as well as pre-flop percentages, average pot size, and the number of hands per hour. This is valuable information to have when deciding which table is best for you.

Ring Game & Tournament Action (9)
The player base at PokerRoom.com is already large, and getting bigger everyday. This is mainly due to their creative and aggressive advertising. They've sponsored sporting events such as NY Nick games, golf tournaments, and have some great TV commercials for their free site PokerRoom.tv. You'll never have any trouble finding a game at the stakes you are comfortable with on PokerRoom. They also draw in a large number of casino players from casinoroom.com looking to test their luck at the poker tables. These players usually lead to some wild and crazy action at the tables.

Game Variety (9)
PokerRoom offers a nice array of game variety. Their main concentration is Texas Holdem, offering Limit, No-Limit, and Pot-Limit games. They also offer 7-Card Stud, 7-Card Stud Hi/Lo, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, as well as 5-Card Draw (a game that is not normally found in your average poker room). The table stakes range from $.25/$.50 all the way up to $500/$1,000! And the best part is, you will actually see people playing at these high stakes games. They are very fun, but a little gut wrenching to watch. Their tournament buy-ins also range from $1 to $1,000.

The Competition (8)
PokerRoom does not offer the softest games online. They have a great player base, and a good number of poker pros that play there on a daily bases. The majority of the pros are concentrated in the high limit games, as PokerRoom.com is one of the only online poker sites that offers games well above a $50/$100 level. PokerRoom.tv continues to bring in new players that generally play weak, and are easy to make some money off of. These new players are generally concentrated at the low stakes games. The tables with the weak players are easy to spot, just look for a flop percentage above 70%. When you find that table, sit down, and start fishing. The middle limit games on the site are fairly competitive. These are great poker tables to really work on improving your game.

Signup Bonus & Promotions (9)
PokerRoom.com offers a sign up bonus of 40% up to $200 when signing up through VegasPokerPro.com. Poker Room is very competitive with their bonus structures and are always offering new promotions and reload bonuses. PokerRoom has a good player point program. Points are awarded for every raked hand in which a player participates. The points can be converted into cash (Player Points Payback) or used as buy-ins in one of the many free roll tournaments (Player Points Freeroll). They continue to offer some of the best loyalty bonus promotions online. You can always find some great freeroll tournaments strictly for their loyal players that include some huge prize pools as well as free WSOP seats.  For more details on how to earn your PokerRoom.com Player Points and Bonus, please visit our PokerRoom.com Review page.  When you sign up for your PokerRoom.com account, be sure to use the Bonus Code: VPP

Customer Service (7)
PokerRoom support is not their strongest area. They do have a great FAQ section, and very friendly and helpful email based customer support, however they offer no telephone support.
