Many of you have asked where I play and find so many freerolls and tournaments that lead to bigger payout games and can’t seem to find my earlier post on the subject. At the risk of being asked not to post the same subjects more than once I bring you the new, improved and more advance version of U.S. Poker Rooms 101. Here is U.S. Poker Rooms 202B
So you know where I am coming from, I have a background in computer software and systems. I was partners in a computer software company for 10 years before I sold my interest in 2002. This knowledge and background has given me a health respect and fascination for online poker rooms. Just to be sure I wasn’t missing something, I thoroughly “Road Tested” some 100 plus sites both approved for
That said, there are differences and variations that make some standout over others. I enjoy and play a lot at the Cake Family of Poker of rooms including Doyle’s Room, Players Poker and 10 or 12 others. Most recently a medium size room that I have enjoyed, PokerWorld moved to the Cake Platform. Lock Poker is also a new room on the Cake network and The Greek Sports Book has added The Greek Poker through Cake. I happen to like Players and Doyle’s the best of this group for their Tournaments. Players has a 5 or 6 freeroll tournaments that qualify you to play in a weekend tournament and win a $13,000 all expenses paid trip to the WSOP. The total purse is about $17,000. Hurry, time is running down. Doyle’s and Cake have daily tournament that qualify you for a weekend $1,000 freeroll. Pretty good stuff.
I play a fair amount at Poker Stars, Ultimate Bet (which I prefer over its twin Absolute Poker), Timeless/Minted poker along with Carbon/Wass/PDC Poker rooms. They are all very good. For some reason I put Bodog Poker at or near the top of my list. It has its quirks and you either like it or hate it but I like the way the tables are displayed. The configuration allows you to play multiple tournaments (which I am doing most of the time now) and know right where you are at a quick glance. Bodog is easy to use, is well supported and has good cash games and tournament for all levels.
With all that said I don’t have just one favorite. All the sites I mentioned have great incentives and freerolls so I often go where the best Games are being played.
Unlike the some of the problems experienced in the sports book industry, Poker Rooms are well equipped to handle cash-outs in a variety of ways and there are new and easier methods coming along everyday. Obviously they have some small print you have to read if you have received bonuses and freebies, but getting your money to and from the online Poker rooms is typically pretty painless.
So what’s stopping you; get out and play somewhere new. It will do you and your Poker game a world of good!
