PokerRoom Sends Shocks As It Returns to the Market

by James Guill


Many online poker players where shocked as they learned that PokerRoom was reentering the online poker market. PokerRoom reopened their doors recently after closing down just two short years ago.  Today’s marketplace is competitive, so many wonder if the online poker site can survive, but after viewing the new PokerRoom, the answer is simple – yes, they can.

The interface on the site is extremely easy to follow and is considered one of the most user-friendly interfaces in the online poker industry. Unlike other poker sites, PokerRoom is laid out in a way that it is easy to find a game, so there’s no need to spend countless hours viewing instructions on how to locate a game. Many other poker sites use extended filters, which only complicate the playing game experience, but PokerRoom’s games are labeled correctly and with just a couple of clicks, avid poker players are playing in minutes.

PokerRoom is known for offering a spread of cash poker games, not just the traditional games like Texas Hold’em and Omaha. Such games include Omaha Hi-Lo, Seven Card Stud, Stud 8 or better and Five Card Draw. For users who like to play a variety of games to advance their poker skills, then PokerRoom is a great place to go to.

The tournaments that are made available on PokerRoom are now improved with expanded offerings and are still considered the best games to attend online. Some of the expanded offerings include: turbo tournaments, deep stack events, heads-up tournaments and six-handed events. PokerRoom still offers the traditional Sit and Go tournaments as well, but be on the look out for even more fun tournament games as the online poker site continues to evolve and grow to offer more than other sites.

One of the concerns for PokerRoom reentering the market was the amount of traffic and the ability to support the vast amount of games. During the day, as many as 4,500 cash game players and 35,000 players in tournaments are on the PokerRoom network, so it is safe to say that the site is still one of the largest poker networks on the Internet. Whatever time you decide to play, you will most likely find a game to play in.

One thing that hasn’t changed was the amazing support that PokerRoom became famous for. Users can contact the staff through chat, email or through telephone and it doesn’t matter what time of the day or night it is as PokerRoom’s support staff is readily available 24/7. Plus, the PokerRoom Community is still alive, but it never really left. Many poker topics are available that span several years and those include articles and hand discussions.

PokerRoom was the leader in cash poker games for over 10 years and now they have returned after a two year absence. The site is better than ever and it’s easy to become a member. The registration process is easy and free, so sign-up today with one of the oldest players in the poker industry.
