Pacific Poker Review

Pacific Poker (www.pacificpoker.com) was formerly known as having somewhat outdated software but has redeveloped and launched their gaming client which now features an improved layout, 3D player avatars as well as a full integrated casino. The new software also features multi-table action (up to 4 tables tiled at one) in addition to a no download version also available for Mac and Linux players.

Games offered at Pacific Poker include all the standard poker game such as Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, Seven-Card Stud and Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo with games ranging between No-Limit, Pot-Limit and Fixed-Limit. Player competition at the tables has also been known as loose and generally on the lower side of the skill level. This represents a good opportunity for more experienced players to turn a profit by choosing the weakest tables at the site.

Pacific Poker’s loyalty program is moderate and operates on a points based model which rewards players in cash for the points they earn. This is one area where the Pacific Poker room (also known as 888 / 888.com Poker) could improve to offering free tournament entries and merchandise for points which they presently have not implemented. Under the current program, players earn 1 point for every $10 in rake they generate, with 100 points earning the player $1 in cash into their account.

Overall, Pacific Poker (www.pacificpoker.com / www.888.com) is a good option for players looking for easy action and fast paced games, but may not be the best choice for players who put high value on a poker room’s loyalty scheme.
