15, count 'em 15, good reasons to play poker online...
| 1. |
You can play from the comfort of your own home (or, if you're
a little bit naughty, office). No driving, no messing about with public
transport, no looking for somewhere to park. Easy. |
| 2. |
No-one knows who you are. If you'd rather people didn't know
you liked a spot of poker, there's no need for anyone to ever find out.
So that's no awkward moments, no bumping into people down the supermarket. |
| 3. |
If you're new to the game, it's a relaxed and non-intimidating environment
in which to play. There are no rough looking blokes who you're frankly terrified
of beating, and you won't catch any snide glances if you make a mistake. |
| 4. |
Unlike most casinos, there's no dress code. Should the mood take you,
feel free to play in your pants. Or, heaven forbid, even less. |
| 5. |
You can play for as little or as long as you like. We don't kick you out
because it's late, and you don't have to hammer down the door to get us
to open. Play for as long as you want, when you want. |
| 6. |
We give you a rather generous bonus on your first deposit. And we run
a frankly bewildering array of offers, competitions and promotions which
mean you get more fun for your money. You don't get this at your local card
school. Having said that, we don't give you free sandwiches. |
| 7. |
Our rake is low, and there aren't any dealers to tip. Of course, if you
really feel compelled to tip, send all presents to our offices. |
| 8. |
You can scarper with your winnings whenever you want. No dirty looks,
no fearing for your life. Which is good. |
| 9. |
We offer lots of tables and lots of willing opponents at a wide range
of table stakes so you can always find a game that suits you. Add to this
all the tournaments that we offer every single day, and there's more poker
action than you can shake a stick at. |
| 10. |
It doesn't matter if you have a rubbish poker face. Scream, whoop, holler.
No-one will ever know. Except your neighbours, and they won't know why. |
| 11. |
Online shuffling is more random than in the real world. And our sophisticated
software and tracking makes cheating and collusion practically impossible
to get away with. So don't try it. |
| 12. |
We have many tables at stakes lower than you'll find in a casino or
real life poker room. With tables starting at $0.05/$0.10 and tournaments at $0.10, you can get your poker fun without having to risk the shirt
off your back. |
| 13. |
If you're a bit handy at poker, you can play at two tables at once, doubling
your potential winnings. Only attempt this if you're an experienced player:
it can also double your losses. |
| 14. |
Playing online is much faster. Faster is better. |
| 15. |
When you play with us, our software guides you through the game telling
you what to do and when meaning you can't get things wrong and look like
a plank. Using software also eliminates dealer error (really, it happens
to even the best of them) and you can't accidentally muck a winning hand. |
