pokerstars.com review

Posted by Royal Flush Poker @ 4:37 PM, Monday Mar 31st, 2008

A good first point to make here would be one of the things that really makes www.pockerstars.com stand out for me, most online sites offer Omaha with hi/lo along with 7 Card Stud, of course Texas Holdem, and sometimes 5 Card Stud too, but most of the sites I have seen can’t match the variety of games on Pokerstar.com

Along with the usual games in abundance, they also have Razz, 5 Draw, 2-7 Triple Draw, and even their own HORSE tournaments too. This appeals to me in particular because I have gained a recent and growing interest in the game of ’Razz’ and have struggled to find a site which offers this game. The deposit bonuses and VIP loyalty systems in place are very good indeed, and the points a player accumulates can be spent on a range of different items in www.pockerstars.com online store too.

Also ongoing are tournaments with generous prizes such as seats in varied major poker tournaments around the globe, and some great freerolls to take advantage of too. pockerstars.com lists some distinguished players amongst it’s professional players such as Daniel Negreanu, Greg Raymer, Joe Hachem amongst others, and for good reason too.

With the attention to detail shown by www.pockerstars.com to create an exceptional online pocker experience, It’s no surprise that there are always plenty of players online. After reading through all the site has to offer, I must confess I have decided myself to join too, as they really do look like the best online poker has to offer. pockerstars.com

pockerstars.com is well known by most online poker players as being one of the most illustrious and popular places to play. With this in mind it stands to reason that the long list of poker professionals who are sponsored by, and endorse the site, should follow suit. pockerstars.com

Amongst these pockerstars.com players you will find main event World Series of Poker champions in, Chris Moneymaker (2003) , Greg Raymer (2004) , and Joe Hachem (2005), the players sponsored by pockerstars.com are not all main event champions of course but each have their own achievements and accolades within the world poker circuit and are excellent representatives of the site. Humberto Brenes, Isabelle Mercier, and a favourite of many players including myself, Daniel Negreanu, to name a few more. These players and a distinguished group of others sponsored by pockerstars.com can often be seen playing in, and being succesful in, major tournaments on different continents every year.

For the aspiring poker player it is an exciting prospect to think that by playing on Poker Stars they may end up playing poker against one of their heroes.

I for one would certainly like to meet daniel Negreanu at the tables one day, even though my chances of winning would be very slim at best. But it isn’t just this possibility that makes it an attractive prospect to play on such well supported poker sites, it gives a sense of reassurance too.

After all, if pockerstars.com is the place that some of the finest names in poker enjoy playing online, then I find myself feeling I would certainly be likely to enjoy playing my online poker there too. pockerstars.com
