sites. PacificPoker.com is growing fast, and has a good number of top
professional poker players such as Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson, Phil

that often, but if you're lucky, you might catch them on. Read our full
review of PacificPoker.com below. We will update the review and bonus
codes if there is any changes to Pacific Poker.
Pacific Poker's Traffic (5):
Traffic for PacificPoker.com is on the low side when compare to the top
poker sites. At the time of our review, there was 5510 players online
with 842 tables. The low limit /stakes tables do get filled up quickly.
We had to join a waiting list during our test.

stud, texas hold em, etc. You can play for free or play real money. Each
one has various pot limit and no limit tables for you to play in. Big
Blinds start as low as $0.10. Pacific Poker also offers various tournaments
for you to join. Buyin starts at a friendly $1. The variety of poker tournament
is constantly growing. No high stakes poker yet.
Pacific Poker's Rake (6):
Pacific Poker's rake is on par with the other poker sites. Pacific Poker
will only rake when there is a flop.
Pacific Poker's Software and Graphics (5):
Pacific Poker's software crashed on us not once, but twice during the
review. PacificPoker.com's software color scheme seems dull. When you
reach the poker table, there is no chat box unless you click it, which
will open up a notepad kind of popup. It seems like no one uses the chat
box because of that. Doesn't really promote player interactions that way.
When someone bets or raise, you can't tell how much they raise until you
look hard at your call button. When you win a hand, it doesn't tell you
right away. Sometimes we didn't even know we won. We would have to click
on chat to scroll back up to see how we won. The lack of avatars and chat
built it, plus the dark color scheme of the table, made it boring to play
after a while. Players have to sign up for two different login if you
want to have a play money and real money account.
Pacific Poker's Support (7):
PacificPoker.com offers email and telephone support. Email response was
good, but the telephone support was slow.
Pacific Poker's Loyalty Bonus (6):

poker sites. If you refer a friend, then you will get a $50 bonus while
your friend gets a $25 bonus. If you want to join their affiliate program,
you'll have to register for another account with their parent company
