Party Poker Review

The players at Party Poker tend to be below average in skill level. With a constant flow of new players from all over the world, Party Poker has been able to keep the room juicy for experienced players. Cash game players at Party are amongst the worst you will find online, many of which who are completely clueless. Like any other room, the players get better as the stakes go higher. However, there are plenty of fish at all levels here.

Tournament players are worse than the cash game players. Party Poker tournaments can be very profitable, especially for players who know how to accumulate chips without risking their entire stack. Bluff less and be more patient at Party Poker. Overbet your big hands, don't be afraid of scaring opponents away - often they'll pay you off.

Party Poker freeroll tournaments are typically run for new players, or country specific. The new player freeroll tournaments usually have prize pools of $100 - $1,000. They also run Party Points tournaments all day and all night for 100 - 250 Party Points.

Party Poker guaranteed tournaments run all day, all night. With prize pools typically ranging from $1,000 - $20,000 daily. They also have a $50,000 tournament on Saturdays, and their $300,000 tournament on Sundays. Buy-ins are in the $1 - $109 range.The Sunday $300,000 tournament has a direct buy-in of $215, or satellites can be bought into for as little as $3. The Saturday $50,000 guaranteed tournament has a buy-in of $320 and usually has around 200 players. Beyond the guaranteed tournaments, Party Poker runs tournaments of all shapes and sizes non-stop, every day. As the second largest online poker room, Party Poker has everything tournament players are looking for.

The lobby at Party Poker is average. While it could be more cleanly designed, it does have a lot of lobby filters to help find your desired game. Cash game details show average pot and hands per hour. We'd like them to add players/flop percentages as well. The Bad Beat Jackpot is also displayed in the lobby ($212,000 + on this random day).

The tables at Party Poker are starting to feel dated, but they're still okay. We'd like to see them redesign the tables to something cleaner and more hi-tech, unfortunately we don't run the place. They have a nice hand history function available from the tables as well. The action buttons and cards are all very big and clear. Sound effects are good as well, not irritating at all. Blackjack can be accessed from the poker tables, and can be played at the same time. Table action is fairly fast, not as fast as Bodog, but faster than Pokerstars.

Party Poker uses their own software. It supports play at up to twelve tables at a time, and is typically quite reliable. It's been built to support 100,000 + players at a time, and has fewer disconnects than in the past. Action is fairly fast, and updates are quick and less bothersome than other rooms. Mac compatible.

Players at PartyPoker.com, PartyCasino.com, PartyBingo.com and PartyGammon.com earn 'Party Points' for real money play. Party Poker has a tiered system for rewarding real money players. The higher level a player reaches, the faster they earn Party Points. Party Points can be used for PartyPoints freeroll tournaments. They can also be exchanged for cash, specific tournament buy-ins, and various other promotions.
