Any chance of you adding Poker.com to the free book offer as well?
So you can get free books, a bonus, and extra money when you beat everyone in the tourney?  |

I guess you should check it out for yourself, but the cash games seem quite good.
There are about 250 real money players online at anyone time.
I am a bit of a freeroll junkie though, its pretty good. They have a $3K freeroll everyday, and that never fills up, so you have a good shot most days.
The best I have placed is second and won $800. That pretty much formed the base of my current bankroll. I am now up to $4000. I usually play in NL $200 at $1/$2 blinds.
I Allways find players at these tables.
Any of you guys checked it out ? How hot is there Player Host Tina ? Wow.
Apparently you can meet her in Melbourne if you win a seat via Poker.com to the Aussie Millions. |

| Poker.com's traffic is light. I am told that they have incredibly juicy NL games if you clear bonuses that way. As far as real money, there is reliably a game as high as 3/6 but any higher and you will likely be playing short handed. As was mentioned earlier, they have a lot of freerolls right now, as they are aggressively launching their platform. |

Hi,
My name is Chris and I work for Poker.com.
I met Ammon at a recent trade show in Las Vegas. He has invited me to answer any questions, complaints or ideas you may have about the Poker.com Room.
To give you a brief rundown on the small history of our room. We released our room to the public in February this year and have grown since that day.
As Ammon suggests, our traffic is light compared to the more established rooms but I invite you to play at our tables and see how much more money you make and even better, enjoy playing on our tables with our unique features.
We do give away $5000 in freerolls everyday and we have just launched our satellites for our Aussie Millions promotion which you can read more on the site.
Feel free to contact me via this forum or via my email, chris@poker.com
Thanks,
Chris |

Hi, Chris, welcome to ITH.
If I read the information on your site correctly, the first-deposit bonus is 30% up to $60 maximum bonus, and to clear it you must accumulate 10 X contributed raked hands (your site calls them raked hands played). Not to be rude, but this is not a very tempting promotional offer. Both the maximum amount of the bonus and the method of clearing it make it of questionable value - when compared to other available bonuses. Is there any thought being given to loosening up this offer?
I see that you have quite a few freeroll promotions, as well. This may be attractive to those poker players who prefer tournaments, but I am primarily a cash game player, so they hold only a little appeal to me.
I really appreciate the way that the information on your site was easy to find and easy to understand. Some sites make you work very hard to uncover the details of their promotions, rake, etc. The info on your site was readily available, I found out everything I wanted to know in just a few minutes.
Thanks for posting. |
