Party Poker

Weighted score 80%

Party Poker is the world's leading poker room, where over 70% of all active players have an account! Party Poker has become the all mighty behemoth in online poker by aggressively building on the market lead it got in 2003 with massive marketing and promotions. Party Poker key benefits are the leading player volume, lots of re-load bonus promotions, great playability and very loose games.

Party Poker stands apart from the other top poker rooms by having more volume than them combined (over half of the market!), super fast 24/7 telephone support and a high share of novice players.

The playability at Party Poker is actually really good, considering the sub-standard graphics. An experienced player has no problems multi-tasking and having 4 tables running at the same time. The stability is nowadays really good, whereas it was quite unreliable back in 2003 and 2004.

The rare weak spots at Party Poker count 1) the interface, which is really quite ugly, 2) no details on view flop percentage per table (to locate the loosest games), 3) no heads-up games, 4) no ultra high-stakes games

Party Poker is a leader in terms of bonuses, with great sign-up bonus (as the raked hands requirement is only 5 hands per bonus dollar) and tons of re-load bonus offers. By loading up to the maximum you can expect to get close to $1,000 in total bonus in your first year of play!

To sum up, all of our 5 editors are very favorable to Party Poker thanks to the huge volume of players and the great looseness/wildness of the games. The big re-load bonuses are also a nice plus.
