Full Tilt Poker |
| The software is easy to use and the play is fast. The hand history is graphic--the best in the business. The sign-up bonus is generous and pays out in $20 increments. The game variety is good. Most action is in Texas Holdem and Omaha Holdem, but there are other games, including stud and HORSE. The traffic is very good, peaking around 65,000. With so much traffic, you can use table selection to find some soft games. The multi-table and sit-&-go tournament structures are good. Tournaments are varied and plentiful. |

Pacific Poker |
| Pacific Poker's best quality is its abundance of players who like to gamble. Pacific is related to Casino On Net, which provides the poker-for-fun traffic. The software is fairly good, but Pacific limits you to one open table. The tournament structures are faster than ideal, but loose players succumb to heavy blinds ideally fast. Traffic is good. The sign-up bonus is not great, but by playing, you get bonus points redeemable for cash. |

Absolute Poker |
| Most of the action at Absolute Poker is on low-stakes, 6-max Holdem tables. The cash games are usually loose with a high percentage of players staying for more cards. The software's features are good and you can download table skins to improve the graphics. Most tournaments are Texas Holdem, with frequent freerolls. Support is by email only but responses are usually quick. The sign-up bonus and weekly reload bonuses are generous. |
