PokerRoom.com- question on play there

[krazyace5]

Does anyone play there?
I have been reading their forum when I am bored at work and done with this forum of course. The majority of posters seem like they don't have a clue. Good for a laugh alot of times. So is the play awful there or just the posts?

I play there but its mainly because its the only place I've been able to find that allows me to play with my mac.

It's one of my stops - play there when a 2/4 game is loose and has an opening.

My view is that they are slightly better them most places with preflops below 40% quit often. Passive but tight for the most part.

I've play there. I still stop by now and then. I've only played $1/2 tables. Those seem quite soft.

Pros: 1/2 games are soft.

Cons: Bonus take a long time to clear
Software is crappy.
Can only play one table at a time.

Pokerroom is one of the only 2 sites I play in - Party is the other. It is a very small site, small player base and limited game choices.

The plus side:

1) Because of no download feature, I can play anywhere - at work during break time and even friends' houses.

2) Because it is small, it is easy to keep track of the loosie regulars - almost like finding ATM cards with PIN numbers.

3) Although there are limited tables, getting a seat is very easy as players come and go.

4) Fast pace action which I really like

5) Very good giveaways - e.g. Get a RSF in diamonds -$500 and $50 for any other suits. (I won $50 in hearts but before their valentine promotion when RSF in hearts was for a cool grand). Spot cash prizes for winning a hand at certain time of the day. (I just won one last Sat for $50)
5) Player points that accummulate to cash. Works like a comp in a casino. I have accumulated about $150.

The minuses:

1. Because of the small size, limited choices of games and tables.

2. Confusing set up. They have a separate regular Texas Hold 'Em games where you can play only 1 table at a time and a separate Poker 4 games where you can play multiple tables. They also have different graphics choices. Quite confusing initially and to me, it is a waste for their resources.

3) Because of the fast pace action, you can hardly take a break to go to the bathroom. You miss a few hands and you lose your seat. Can't even wait for the BB when you sit down. If you first sit 3-4 behind the button, play right away or you lose your seat before you get the BB. This is quite aggravating but bearable because, the waiting for a new seat is short.

I have been playing only since mid-November but I am winning more at Pokerroom than at Party.

I find Pokerroom to be cool little site but it is just my opinion.

If you do play here go to cardplayer.com. Look for the link that will give you a 40% bonus, up to $200.

You'll be playing for awhile, but it's good play. I had my best month in online poker from that site. (granted I've only been playing for 5 months...)
