Software:
Software is very important to a poker player. Is the software fast? Is there any server lag? Is there any connectivity issues? Does the room stay online most of the time? Reliable software also involves security, players want to know their money is safe.Graphics:
Graphics make those long lasting grind sessions bearable to the eyes. Are the cards and pot sizes legible? Can you read all names and see all avatars? Is the lobby easily navigable and user friendly?
Cash game Traffic:
What is the cash game player volume like on the ring tables, during peak hours and slow hours? Are there enough games to play or do you have to wait for tables to fill up?MTT Traffic:
What is the tournament player volume like on the site during peak and sloww hours? How many mtt's are making their guarantees, are there enough minimum players a mtt to run?SNG Traffic:
What is the SNG player volume like on the site during peak and slow hours? Check and see how many sit and gos are running in the lobby. |

Sign Up Bonus:
Players love free money for just depositing and playing like they would on any other site. We rated the sign up bonus against the highest bonus in the industry and against the lowest ones in the industry.Reward Program:
Rakeback or VIP system is key for any player that puts in a lot of volume. What will the site give me in return if i play a lot and give the site a lot of rake just for playing? Support:
Every player knows that support is a very important piece in running a successful poker site. When you have a question about your account or play, does the site have the resources for a customer to contact support and how long does it take?Deposit/Withdrawal:
When you want your money, you want your money, or you dont want the hassle of depositing. The major factor here was how fast withdrawals are processed and is it easy to deposit?Soft Competition:
Is the competition easy? Can a average player break even or even ahead on the site? Is the site full of drunks and fish? Is the site infested with regulars? |

About StealingBlinds Poker Room Reviews |
|
StealingBlinds decided to rate each individual poker room based on our experience as users over the past decade plus. We compiled a list of the top 10 things that we thought a poker user would use to judge the quality of a poker room. These 10 things are listed and explained in detail on each side on this page. After coming up with the list of top items to review, we then implented a scaling chat from one to ten, with one being very poor and ten being perfect. We then took those numbers and calculated the average rating score between the top ten topics and came up with an overall rating for each poker room. We listed Each rooms Pros and Cons along with any running promotions and all bonuses and freerolls that each site has to offer. Each review gives a little in depth background on each room so that the user can best decide on what poker room he chooses to download and play on. We have reviewed each room with unbiased opinions so that the user can feel secure that our reviews are quite accurate. We would like you to enjoy your experience as much as you would like to enjoy it. If you want to enjoy yourself at the poker room you select, it is vital to get all the details about that poker room up front. We know you dont want to have money stuck on a site that you can not withdrawal, or a site that the security may be breached at any given moment and your money is not safe. Whether you want soft competition or the best competition, from the best graphics or the most traffic, to the easiest withdrawal and deposit methods, to the best sign up bonus or customer support, these reviews let you know that we have done the hard work for you, now you should choose one that best suits your needs and start playing. Enjoy. |
