Detailed Room Review For Party Poker – The Loosest Poker Site?

by The Poker Dog

Once the largest poker site online, Party Poker pulled out of the US in 2006 and lost many of their players. The good news is that Party are still the 3rd largest online poker room. The even better news is that their current player base are mostly terrible – a serious contender for the loosest online poker site! Ring games and SNGs are popular, the tables filling quickly at all times. There is a large selection of tournaments including Party Point freerolls, rebuys, turbo tournaments and satellite qualifiers available. The software is easy to use but a little ‘resource intensive’ on your computer.

The initial sign-up bonus is 30% up to $150 with PartyPoker bonus code SNGPLANET, this is cleared by tournament play or raked hand counts so is quick and easy to collect even at the lower levels. In addition Party Poker offer regular reload bonuses to their players – giving you a chance to regularly boost your poker bankroll.

Party Poker Detailed Room Review – Cash Game Selection

Cash games (along with SNGs) are especially busy at Party Poker. There are almost as many Fixed Limit Holdem tables available as there are No-Limit Tables. The variety of buy-ins available is wide – blinds go from just cents up to $100’s. The play at the cash game tables is largely what gives Party Poker their reputation as the loosest online poker site!

Some of the cash game tables, marked in red in the lobby are the ‘bad beat jackpot’ tables. This jackpot accrues until someone is beaten holding quad-8’s or better – at which point it is divided among the table. The rake (fee) taken from these tables is slightly higher, this extra cash is added to the jackpot.

Other cash games available include pot-limit Holdem, 7-card stud, plus both pot limit and fixed limit Omaha
(including hi-lo).

Party Poker Detailed Room Review – Tournament Selection

There are a large number of tournaments available at Party Poker. These range from ‘Party Points’ freerolls through to the bigger buy-in showcase events such as the Sunday $400k guaranteed.

Many lower buy-in tournaments run around the clock including rebuys and satellites to the larger buy-in events. The play is often wild and loose at the lower buy-in levels with many inexperienced opponents.

Party Poker Detailed Room Review – Poker Software Overview

Party Poker’s software set the standard for the poker industry during the early years of the online game. It looks good and is easy to navigate. Our only complaint is that the software is a little too resource intensive – for example having multiple tables can lead to lags, especially if you have several other programs running. On the plus size the resizable tables and clear action buttons make this site very ‘playable’ indeed.
