Default A good poker review

Bernard, one of our readers, sent me this. I thought it might be helpful to those who like to play online poker.

"Recently, I experienced CDpoker changed their initial bonus conditions without honouring their prevoius pledges. Complaints do not get any response.

Expekt Poker uses the same software as Bet365 poker. When you downloaded Expekt Poker software, the latter identified your user name in Bet365 and asked for a verification code.

Absolute Poker used to be a good site until they changed their points system for the release of their bonuses. Now it is just a joke that they offer anything in terms of a bonus.

Party Poker can trick you not getting the 'refer a friend' bonus. When the referred friend registers, they offer the referred friend a better bonus and if they accept that, it cancels out the referral bonus."

At the Rx bash if you ever need some info on what time is the poker, or can you save me some shrimp off the buffet, or here are another 5,000 raffel tickets(we'll split it 50/50) you can ALWAYS find Fish. The guy never left the Golden Nugget sportsbook. After a couple of days the customers were trying to order beers from him they thought he was the manager. A good guy that Fish...

Poker is cool because it makes fat people think they are playing a sport. Then, when you are a sweaty mess at the WPT and lose at the first table, you get in your Chevy Cavalier thinking you just suck at life. I blame ESPN.

Played at Intertops for a while (I think they're a Party Poker clone). I never could get past the thought that I was getting screwed by robots, player collusion or whatever. Just seemed like too many bad beats compared to a live game. Where do you guys play?
