Site Review Paddy Power Poker
Category: Online Poker World
Paddy Power was the first online site I ever joined and I have certainly had my fair share of good and bad luck playing there. The site itself is very easy to find your way around and the players and support staff have always been very friendly too. Around a year or two ago the site changed in a big way with many new things coming into effect such as avatars, the table designs, the site layout and other things, this on the whole I think was a good and necessary step forward for the site, although it did bring one problem in that the ‘lobby’ area of the site was discontinued so many of the poker playing friends who used to play and enjoy chat quizzes and some relaxation time between games, didn’t quite have the same enjoyable welcome and experience when they played poker there.
Otherwise though this site is one I have stuck by for some years now, and there are always gauranteed tournaments ongoing and cash games on all of the key games at many different levels of blinds. The graphics and gameplay are generally good and smooth onsite, and although the card designs aren’t completely to my liking, this is a rather trivial point and doesn’t affect the enjoyable game of poker you can have here. Paddy Power offers qualifiers for many major tournaments and always has a good number of eye catching promotions going on, a points system is in place too with V.I.P levels giving many advantages to the player. Alongside this offer is a first time sign up bonus of 150% up to $600 which is generous as sign up bonuses go, although it is released in $10 installments as and when you earn the required experience points. So all in all, if you are looking for a site to have an enjoyable game of poker with plenty of ongoing promotions and offers, then Paddy Power is a very good choice of site to play on, and definitely one I would recommend despite one or two small flaws.
