PokerStars Review

Summary:

Owned by some of the biggest names in poker, PokerStars is one of the biggest and best uk poker rooms - if not the world. Massive amounts of traffic is always guaranteed at any time of the day, but be warned - this is not a place for the poker feint-hearted.

US Friendly...
A little thing like the US government banning online gaming hasn't stopped PokerStars continuing to accept US customers - which means that one of the best uk poker rooms has overtaken the likes of Party Poker as the biggest online poker rooms.

Tons of Action...
So with pretty much the whole world playing, you can be sure of tons of action at PokerStars, at any time of the day, at every skill level imaginable. With ring games a plenty, it is actually the tourneys that PokerStars are renowned for. Any tournament you wish to enter will pit you against thousands each and every time, such is the sheer weight of volume.

Join The Elite...
Such is the gravitas that comes with PokerStars you can be sure to 'bump' into or be a rail bird online watching some of the biggest stars on the planet play poker - Negreanu, Mercier and the UK's very own Vicky Coren - as well as no less than six WSOP Winners - Tom McEvoy, Chris Moneymaker, Joe Hachem, Greg Raymer, Peter Eastgate and the 2009 winner, Joe Cada!

A Different Class of Player...
New players to online poker should be warned though - the class of player is higher than those found elsewhere, so make sure you enter the numerous freerolls on offer first to sharpen up your poker skills. Once you are ready for the tournaments, you can be assured of massive cash pots and plenty of seats for the major tourneys around the world - including the World Series of Poker where PokerStars literally send thousands of players bearing the brand. 

Great Look...
Talking of which, the branding at PokerStars looks great and is instantly recognisable - which filters down to the website and lobby. Whilst it may be 'only' 2D like most online poker rooms, it does look really good, is very easy to navigate and again - the sheer weight of numbers means you are a click away from the action. Notes and stats are readily available, as well as the ability to choose your own themes for the site.

Huge Promos...
At time of going to press, PokerStars are offering a huge $600 FREE when you sign-up, as well as offering a very tasty $300 RELOAD bonus - enough to rival the best poker rooms. You can also collect Frequent Player Points (FPPs) as you play, exchanging them for PokerStars clothing, free chips or seats to some of the best poker tourneys in the world.

The Fly in the Ointment...
Despite the bonuses, traffic, promos and pros, the one area that lets PokerStars
down in our opinion is the Customer Service - you can contact their support by email only. Now this is either to cut costs, or because they have so many players they can't service everyone, or a bit of both. But for me, this is important and I want to speak to a real person from time to time.

CasinoGeezer's Final Verdict...

PokerStars is set up for the discernable, experienced poker player. Absolutely tons of poker action available but at a level that is higher than anywhere else. And no wonder, with no less than six WSOP champions as brand guardians and a plethora of other poker and sports stars. Massive bonuses and huge amounts of seats available on a great looking site - if only PokerStars would add a telephone number.
