Party Poker
PartyPoker.com is affiliated with Empire poker. Their ring games are separate but Tournaments are combined between the two. The combination is probably the biggest online Poker Room.
Graphics: Old, distracting and hard to read for my old eyes. Tournament boards can be confusing. You can easily end up in a game different from what you expect. They need a remodeling.
Games: Hold'em Omaha and 7 Card Stud.
Tournaments: This site has a full range of tournaments through out the day, and is probably the best place to find a $100+ buy-in Tournament. They also offer a full range of single and three table sit & go tournaments. They also offer a myriad of satellites to their upper level tournaments.
Players: Generally friendly and amicable, They chat some and will usually respond.
Competition: There is a lot of soft competition here but there are also some very good players. It really depends upon the limit and day of the week. Friday and Saturday night can be rather soft.
Bonuses: Normal 10% deposit bonus, refer a friend. They also offer special tables with a bad beat jackpot.
Amenities: Nothing spectacular. Don't particularly care for their Tournament lobby, not enough information.
Connection : Have only had problems twice. They were brief and quickly dissipated.
Support: Response has been pretty quick.
Overall : Being the biggest has a big advantage in game availability and range of competition. I do think they need to remodel the graphics, and the Tournament lobby really needs work.
