Overall: 8.0 Play Now Visit PKR The bonus of PKR - which is a 100% first deposit bonus up to $800 - can be cleared relatively easily. However the reason it is worth playing here is more the experience and the easy opposition than the bonuses although the bonuses are also great. PKR is the most successful 3D online poker site on the market. Their software is unique and you get the feeling as if you would play live indeed. PKR is not a member of any network. They have a brand new 3D technology, and they were the first on the market with it. If your computer can't cope with the heavy graphics, you can download a lighter version or order the software on CD for free. The software a bit slow, has a few bugs, and needs big hard drive space, but all this doesn't matter, because it is simply fantastic. If you try it once you won't play anywhere else. For those players who want to enjoy themselves and they would rather play for the pleasure of the game than for maximizing profit, there is no better room than PKR. At the same time because of the many hobby players it is an ideal place for professional players as well. The traffic could be better at the cash tables and on the tournaments, but it is growing continuously. Unfortunately US players are not allowed on PKR.

Go to Top

A reasonable player can beat the games on PKR easily or very easily. The continuous supply of new players and the impressive software which attracts beginners (graphics and gaming adventure bring the most players here) ensures a profitable place for a serious player. At a full ring table the flop view percentage goes above 50% quite often. It is easier to get to know other player’s tendencies, because the experience is very similar to real life.

Player Traffic

Go to Top

At the cash tables the traffic isn’t too great on PKR. The interest towards the site is enormous and new players are continuously registering, but currently the traffic is concentrated on micro and low limit Hold’em tables. 90-95% of the players are at the Hold’em tables. There is room for improvement in tournament traffic as well although more and more new players are discovering the site. PKR runs a lot of good freeroll tournaments.

Software & Graphics

Go to Top

When we are talking about the software and the graphics of PKR, we are talking about a completely different category in the world of internet poker.  You can't compare their software with anything else that you have seen in online poker. It offers a brand new adventure. The software is a bit slow though, has a few bugs and needs big hard drive space, but all this doesn't matter, because it is simply fantastic. Players who like the experience which combines high quality graphics with the real-life experience will love PKR. All graphics are three dimensional, with shadows and movements, as you would expect from a computer game. For PKR you need a relatively new computer because of the heavy graphics, but it needs less space than the latest computer games. You can shape your character to be unique, you can choose every detail: height, form of the head, hair, facial hair, colors of the eyes, skin, etc. Players can select the tone of the character's voice, jeweleries, clothes, sunglasses, accessories, etc. To bring more personality into the game, your character can learn various chip tricks, he can talk at the table, he can do various moves with his hands, and he can clap, cough, etc. The game is  played at a poker table which looks like in real life, there is a live dealer, and we can watch the game from practically any angle. The software allows to play at 4 tables at the same time, but a little slow when multi-tabling. If you don’t want to download the software, you can order it for free on a CD from the costumer service.
