Party Poker :: World's Largest
Poker Room
PartyPoker.com
is the world's largest online cardroom. This is in itself is a reason I play
on the site. There are over 20,000 players playing at all times of the day
which makes it very easy to find any game you want to play at any given
time. They spread Texas Hold'em (Limit and No Limit), Omaha, and Stud ring
games in a variety of limits. They also have single and multi-table
tournaments.
The number of entrants they receive in their tournaments is astounding. It
is common to have 800 players in a $30 No Limit tournament. I remember one I
played in (and won) had a first prize of $6000. Not a bad return for a $30
investment. They also have a Million Dollar Guaranteed No Limit tournament
every Saturday. They usually have about 1800 entrants with first prize
netting a little over $200,000.
PartyPoker.com also hosts the Party Poker Million tournament. For a $22 buy-in,
winners of a one table Limit Holdem tournament have a chance to advance to
the Party Poker Million finals. Finalists receive $500 and participate in
the Party Poker Million Holdem tournament on a CardPlayer Cruise.
For the near future I am sure PartyPoker will continue to be the largest
online poker room, especially because Mike Sexton is
spokesman. Due to the World Poker Tour, he remains in the public eye and new
players would naturally want to play at a site associated with someone they
"know". New players can take advantage of a first time deposit bonus (up to
$100). After registering, make sure you look for me under the ID "Siren" and
say "hi".
