Third Bullet Poker Software
Third Bullet Poker uses state-of-the-art 3D graphics for all of their poker tables. The table-felt is table specific and the scenery changes from table name to table name, but can be made as "always green" in the preferences tab. The felts tend to be very easy on the eyes. The player and dealer avatars are in 3D graphics, each replete with voices and mobility at the table. Avatars cannot be turned off, although their voices can be. Player cards are red-backed and can be set to four color mode. Player notes has a TAG feature where players can tag their opponents in a variety of categories [fish, shark, maniac, etc], including making their own categories. The note function, however, does not have an auto-wrap text feature. There is also no player statistics screen for tracking session play.
The main menu software is difficult to navigate only in the sense that mouse scrolling doesn't work, so the up/down slider must be used to scroll between the various tables. Third Bullet Poker has players seeing the flop percentages as well as hands per hour, two tools which are important for table selection.
The tournament screens allow players to click open tabs to find out all of the pertinent information on each tournament.

Third Bullet Poker Traffic
Third Bullet shares tables and players with True Poker. The two sites have small traffic with 2,000 players being the norm for the weekdays with slightly higher traffic on the weekends. This tends to be in the smaller stakes NL games and the play money rables. Tournament action is sub-par.

Third Bullet Poker Games
Third Bullet Poker offers a variety of table games and tournaments for their players to participate in.
Holdem continues to be the dominant poker game in the industry. Third Bullet Poker offers Holdem in it's fixed limit, no limit and pot limit forms. NL gets most of the cash game attention ranging from NL20 to NL1000, with most of the traffic centering around the lower stakes games. Pot-limit is offered but rarely trafficked. Fixed limit ranges from $0.10/$0.20 to $15/$30, but once again the bulk of the traffic is in the lower stakes games.
Although Omaha is offered in both it's Hi/Lo and High-only variants, there are few if any players. Third Bullet Poker does not offer other types of poker games like 7-Card Stud or 5-Card Draw.
Multi-table tournaments [MTTs] and Sit and Gos [SnGs] garner a large share of the Third Bullet Poker players. MTTs and SnGs of varying buy-ins are offered on a daily basis. SnGs come in heads-up, single table and two table formats, while MTTs are offered in freerolls, money-added and direct buy-in with amounts ranging from $0.01 to $100.

Piscivorous Discretionary Poker Room Bonus Rating
Third Bullet's bonuses are not very attractive. It takes 20x QRH to earn $1 in bonus at Third Bullet Poker and their bonuses expire in 30 days. Players will note that they clear in $10 increments and that the bonus only clears at an appalling 5% rakeback in tournaments and SnGs.
However, players will receive new bonus codes for reloads on a monthly basis, can participate in Third Bullet's Winners Bounty, which pays players who better their monthly deposits, and are free to withdraw at any time.
