Poker.com Review Poker reviews | online poker | internet poker | objective
Poker.com (also known as PDC Poker) is Brisbane, Australia based & licenced by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission, Canada. Poker.com is the original skin of the Merge Gaming Network (Carbon Poker) and the purpose-built software is stylish. Gameplay is smooth & fast with unique play features like 'All in show downs' & "deal it twice" - just like on TV! We like this poker software.
Players from around the world welcome including most States of the USA
POKER.COM SITE LOOK & FEEL / PLAYABILITY
POKER.COM software & systems
Show off your 24" widescreen monitor - maximise Poker.com's Hold'em and even the carpet looks real! Other features we like include:
- You can earn & display Poker.com "Accolades". Add a customisable award to your
player identity showing you've won big - & stars for regulars. Silly, but it appeals (& helps
identify competition). Watch the table graphics change as you move through to the final
table of a tournament...it's a fun way to build atmosphere online.
- "Rabbit Hunt" (what card would have come next)
- "Expose One Card" great to learn the game
- "All in Percentages" at a showdown - just like on TV you get to see the relative win
% of those remaining in a hand.
- Cool new "deal it twice" feature now available as an option!
Poker.com offers some genuinely unique play & lobby features

Rake ranges from $0.50 to $3 based on the number of players at a table. Industry standard. A "No flop, No drop" policy applies, (no rake if the hand ends before the flop).

Poker.com Review independent card room assessment and rating, US OK, American Players accepted, Poker reviews | online poker | internet poker | objective review
Site traffic is strong at Poker.com (~3500 ring game players at peak plus ~5500 tournament players), we've had no trouble finding action & Poker.com's popularity is growing all the time. $100 - $1000 Freerolls every 3 hours - but be in quick as they fill up fast!
Poker.com offers Texas Hold’em, Omaha, Razz and other popular poker games and we are confident that Poker.com will suit most players. You can play for 'play' or 'real' money & host your own tournament. Lots of tournaments, including really free Freerolls (no action points required) , Sit 'n' Go & Multi-Table with Limit, pot-limit, & no-limit options across a range of table stakes $0.01/$0.02 to $30/$60. Stylish BlackJack & other casino side games.
A Poker.com advertisement asks "Want to play with the pros? Why? When you can win $ off the rookies that play at Poker.com!" - this effectively summarises the level of competition at the Poker.com poker room. In general we have found play fairly soft & passive. Friendly too.
Poker.com is a virtual business - email rather than telephone or physical contact - expect both knowledgeable & quick responses (in minutes not hours or days). They have a good set of FAQs & a web site especially for poker support: http://www.PokerCS.com
Starting out at Poker.com is easy - just download & install the free software. Have a look at the "Simple Guide to Hold'em" on the Poker.com web site to give you the basics then just join any one of the active poker tables listed in the lobby in either 'play' tables (free) or 'real' money. Hope to meet you across a Poker.com table soon!

1. No payout to credit cards (although this is becoming much more common and generally is the
credit card issuer's call not the online gambling site).
2. Traffic off peak is not that great, especially is you want to play for higher stakes. This is
improving considerably though as US players are still accepted at this poker room so player
numbers are growing well and the Merge Gaming Network is rapidly expanding with more
poker sites joining.
1. A great poker room for beginners, nice pace, good action - and in general more friendly players
and support crew.
2. Lots of FREEROLLS, daily with prizes ranging from $50 to $50K
3. Daily guaranteed tournaments from $200 to $2000
4. Look and feel. Original, well paced gameplay with realistic graphics.
5. A "nice to have" joining bonus with relatively achievable play-through requirements.
