Pacific Poker is run by one of the largest
online casinos, Casino-on-Net, and that is the main reason
why the games have been so good. There are many casino
players that like to gamble on Pacific Poker. The software
is Pacific’s weakness, it is only possible to play at one
table at a time which is sub-standard. It doesn’t matter
much for the beginners who may have many things to think
about but for the more experienced players who quickly get
bored by playing on one table it’s bad news. The graphics
are not anything special either. Party Poker has an unbelievable series of
featured party poker tournaments, which include weekly prize
totals of hundreds of thousands of dollars. They also run
the Party Poker Million series, which has become a televised
World Poker Tour Event. Prize monies for this party poker
tournament event are into the $3.5 million plus range. Below
are the Party Poker tournaments offered and the tournaments
buy-ins.
Player volume is very good, on peak hours
2000-2500 real money players and 4000 tournament players
play simultaneously, which is among top 6 sites. Most cash
game traffic is concentrated towards the fixed limit Texas
Hold’em games. There are also Omaha and Seven-Card Stud
games being spread. The rake is standard for the industry
with a 5% max $3 on full ring games (6-10 players).
Bonuses and promotions are decent, the most common type is
deposit bonuses. Pacific Poker is a big site and backed by a
huge casino so there are no financial problems. Players have
several options when depositing or withdrawing funds.
