This was my site of choice, but now I only rate it a 2 because US players are not allowed to play for real money anymore

Overview:
Party Poker was the world leading poker site. With the ban of US players traffic has decreased dramatically. Over some time we will see how this effects the site.
|
|
Software:
Software is quite nice. They are able to handle over 100K players online simultaneous. An excellent feature is table resizing. Great if you are on your laptop. You can manually resize each individual table or can "auto resize" all tables with one click. This auto resize will spread the tables across your screen evenly. Unfortunately this feature does not work for Omaha and Stud tables.
|
|
Game Variety:
All standard games are offered, Hold'em, Omaha and Stud. Unique games like, Razz, Heads Up Tables and Draw Poker are unavailable. Also, shorthanded Omaha games are not offered. All games offered have wide limits ranging from $.5/1 up to $100/200.
|
|
Player Traffic:
Since the site decided to be pussies and self ban American players due to a new law passed by Congress, their traffic is rightfully suffering from it. Despite this, they still remain one of the larger poker sites available.
|
|
Many Donkeys?:
Always soft competition on Party Poker. Party advertises on many networks attracting many new players inexperienced players.

DeiYuo's Note:
I no longer play on Party Poker. If they do ever come back to the US market I will have to contemplate being loyal to them again after the move they pulled. Overall, if I was European or Canadian I'd have to pass on this site as the sign up bonus is crap and without all the Americans on the site the room for growth is capped.
