Not really interested whether they give out free money, etc. They allow private tables and the software looks good, just wondering if anyone has any experience with them. So far the most flexible private tables are at royal vegas but a lot of folks have reservations about the site so I keep looking. Another forum I'm aware of is going to run their league there so it may be OK...

I like the navigation on the site, one of the easiest to use for me. I have liked everything about it that I have used so far.

They have nice selection of low entry fee tournaments. They guarantee an amount for most tournaments which is nice $100 for $1 entry, $500 for $5 entry etc.

I like the freerolls $100 and only 1000 entrants. Pays out to 99th place. Only problem is you start with 1000 in chips and blinds go up fast. You have to bomb all in or double up in the first 20 minutes to really have a chance. Takes the skill out of it (most will say there is no skill in freerolls, but that is another topic) but they have enough that you can earn some $$$$$ to try the real tables.

Only draw back is that there are not enough people on the site yet to make ring games worth while.

hi dave there is also cherrypoker.com and pokerroom.com that allow you have private tables. i know cherrypoker is a pretty new site. both have the same look as pokerroom and another thing you dont have to download them,juiceeQ mentioned cherrypoker and i tried a freeroll there, they only have 2 freerolls there a week and there never full,one is 100 max. on Wednesday and the other is 150 max. on Sunday night. I`ve played there twice and its never fulled up. but to get back to you Dave they do have private tables.

A different forum I go to, a video game forum, makes private tables and have some play money tourneys just for bragging rights. I like their software and the site in general.

i think that poker.com is a nice site .. and it runs pretty smoothy .. i just hate how tournaments seem to take forever because of a slow play it has .. and that music .. wow .. soo annoying .. always interfers with the music i have playing
