PokerStars Review
Review of Pokerstars
This time I cannot offer you an unbiased review. Pokerstars.com is number one in the world and with good reason. It has the best graphics, its easy to navigate and most importantly for me, it allows for multi-tabling. I have heard of players playing 60 tables at a time, it seems crazy but I know it is possible. I have played at 30 tables but it's just too fast for me. I stick to around 12-15 tables at the peak of my play. You can basically do everything at Pokerstars, you can event make your own table design or have them custom made for you. I have seen a few cool designs made by SirNordle, a decent pokerstars player.

Badugi
You have some interesting games to play around. Out of the above games, Badugi is probably least heard of . It's a 4 card draw game and once you get the hang of it, a great game. Pokerstars have plenty of freerolls to help you test out new games. Freerolls always have huge fields and can be a great learning place while safe guarding your bankroll.
Bonuses at Pokerstars
Pokerstars new player bonuses are now in line with the industry standard. They also offer reload bonuses and have the best VIP program online. I played online at pokerstars for years relying solely on VIP point converting and not once did I have a complaint about lack of bonuses.
On registration you will be asked for a pokerstars marketing code. The marketing code is encrypted within our links to save you the hassle of having to go back to this page to find it.
Once you are ready to make your first deposit, check on the pokerstars.com official website for your first deposit bonus code. At the time of writing the bonus code is "STARS600" which offers players up to $600 in bonus money. This is their best bonus ever and don't forget the VIP bonus, as you move up the VIP tiers your rewards get better. I now get roughly 30% cash back via the VIP Reward Scheme.
Pokerstars have the highest volume of players worldwide, they offer the biggest tournaments and the World Online Poker Championships. You have a great selection of games including secret gems such as Badugi. The standard of play varies. I would say that pokerstars.com have the best players in the world at the tables, but also the worst.
Why Pokerstars Accepts US Players
As most players are aware the United States Congress forced though rulings relating to Internet gambling.
Pokerstars scrutinized these rulings and concluded that these rulings did not affect US players status at their site. They also pointed out that this new act, in no way prohibited you from playing poker online.
PokerStars has received extensive expert advice from within and outside the U.S. which concluded that these provisions do not alter the U.S. legal situation with respect to our offering of online poker games. Furthermore it is important to emphasize that the Act does not in any way prohibit you from playing online poker.
"Therefore, our business continues as before - open to players worldwide including the US. You may play on our site as you did prior to the Act."
PokerStars Management
There you have it, straight from management. It is their belief that poker is pure and simply, a skill game.
If you are from the USA and do not have a pokerstars.com players account, you are missing out big time. It's the most secure site online, they have the fastest servers and player base at their disposal. They get full marks all round from me!
