Podsumowanie (ocenione na 7 z 10)
PKR proponuje unikalne pokerowe doświadczenia online. Przypadkowi gracze będą się delektować grafiką 3D oraz innymi ciekawymi opcjami. Jednakże powolność gry i trudność w grze na wielu stołach będzie drażnić profesjonalistów. PKR zasługuje jednak na szansę, by odkryć ten nowy poziom rozgrywki online.

Wybór Gier (ocenione na 3 z 10)
Wybór gier na PKR jest dość słaby. Grający Studa zostali w ogóle pominięci, ponieważ pokój oferuje tylko Limit, Pot-Limit, No-Limit Holdem i Omaha. Co więcej, ruch jest tu mały (PKR to niezależna sieć) i czasem ciężko jest znaleść odpowiednią grę, w szczególności gdy chcesz zagrać Limit Holdem czy też wysokie stawki. Jedyny dobry punkt jest taki, że PKR pozwala nowicjuszom na grę na mikro stawkach (0.02/0.04$ NL lub 0.05/0.10$ limit). W przypadku Sit'n'Go stawki rozpoczynają się od 1$, a najwyższe to 200$, na stołach 10-osobowych, 6-osobowych lub heads-up. Są normalne stoły (poziom trwa 6 minut) albo stoły Turbo (poziom trwa 4 minuty). Struktura blindów jest następująca: 15/30, 30/60, 50/100, 75/150, 100/200 itd. ze stackiem początkowym 1500. Jest też oferta w zakresie turniejów MTT, ale w porównaniu do innych stron wygląda słabo.

Jakość Graczy (ocenione na 9 z 10)
Nie powinno być to niespodzianką, że trójwymiarowa grafika PKR oraz inne opcje, przyciągają rybki. W rezultacie, przeciwnicy na PKR są słabi, grają loose-passive lub jak maniacy. Ludzie chcą oglądać wiele flopów i mają problem ze zrzuceniem wielu bitych rąk. Dodatkowo znajdziecie tu wiele shortstacków, wkupujących się za 20% maksymalnego dozwolonego buy-ina. Stanowią oni łatwą zdobycz. Jeżeli jesteś graczem wygrywającym, z solidną selekcją rąk preflop, to bez problemu zdominujesz grę.

Oprogramowanie (ocenione na 7 z 10)
Oryginalność oprogramowania PKR jest jednym z najważniejszych atutów tej firmy w coraz bardziej i bardziej rywalizującym rynku pokojów pokerowych. Zacznijmy od tego, że oprogramowanie jest przyjazne dla użytkownika i zaimplementowano w nim wszystkie tradycyjne opcje (talia w 4 kolorach, automatyczne przyciski, możliwość pokazywania tylko jednej karty itd.). Funkcje lobby są klasyczne - możesz użyć filtrów by odszukać grę, użyć listy przyjaciół czy dołączyć do listy oczekujących. Oprogramowanie oferuje bardzo ciekawe i nowatorskie opcje - twoja postać może tańczyć, robić triki żetonami, czy wstawać przy wejściu za wszystko. Kolejnym ważnym dodatkiem jest to, że widzisz swoje karty tylko przez kilka sekund. Gdy chcesz je zobaczyć jeszcze raz, musisz nacisnąć specjalny przycisk i wszyscy gracze zobaczą, że twoja postać podnosi karty. Minusem tej opcji jest to, że utrudnia grę na kilku stołach, szczególnie w Omaha. Możesz grać tylko 3 stoły jednocześnie, ale to wystarczy by przyprawić cię o ból głowy. Jest tez dziwny błąd. Jeżeli grasz heads-up, w pierwszym rozdaniu jeden z graczy będzie na butonie i dużym wejściu w ciemno, a buton pozostanie przy nim na kolejne rozdanie, przy małym wejściu w ciemno.

Grafika (ocenione na 10 z 10)
Grafika 3D jest po prostu przepiękna - zostajesz dosłownie oszołomiony atmosferą gry. Twoja postać jest całkowicie konfigurowalna (twarz, waga, ubrania, głos itd.). Możesz dokupić nowe dodatki jak np. okulary przeciwsłoneczne czy triki żetonami, płacąc za pomocą PKR points. W rezultacie każdy gracz na stole jest unikalny. Nawet wystrój stołu i krupier zmieniają się za każdym razem, możesz też dowolnie ruszać kamerą (widok z pierwszej osoby, ogólny itd.). Dźwięk jest również dobry, dostępne są głosy posiadają różne akcenty. Te wszystkie opcje i dodatki powodują, że czujesz jakbyś grał na żywo przed ekranem swojego komputera.

Opłacalność (ocenione na 7 z 10)
PKR to plusy i minusy dla twojego bankrolla. Z jednej strony, przeciętny gracz z PKR jest słaby, zaś z drugiej gra się wolno i ciężko jest grać kilka stołów jednocześnie. Programy wspomagające jak PokerTracker w tym momencie nie współpracują z PKR, a system notatek jest kiepski gdyż pozwala tylko na wybranie ikony. Dla przygodnego gracza niskich stawek, PKR może być dobrym miejscem do osiągnięcia zysków, ponieważ może on zagrać o poziom wejść wyżej bez ponoszenia zbyt dużego ryzyka. Bonus depozytowy PKR jest atrakcyjny. Otrzymasz 50$ bonusa za 6000 PKR points, czyli 60$ odprowadzonego rake. To odpowiada rakebackowi w wysokości 83%, a wystarcz rozegrać nie wiele więcej rąk by spełnić także wymogi bonusu Savvy.

I think PKR is a goldfish bowl filled to the top. but u have to have a big enought bankroll, to compensate those swings, because at the cashtable, everybody call u with everything, and in the turnament, donkeys start to play tight.
so if u want a pice of the action, go there.
the only realy bad thing is the multitableing feature, it isnt realy good to handle, and the amount of hands u play each hour at the tables equal the amount u can play in a casino.
so play highlimits, and ull be rewardet by those nice calling donkey.
enjoy

PKR - the different poker site

PKR is a site that differs a LOT from any other poker site you've probably seen. The site tries to simulate real games by offering 3d graphics, customizable avatars etc. The attempt is nice but still something is lacking. After a little while I was longing back to ordinary poker site as I grew tired of sounds and looks of the site. 3d graphics also tend to make multitabling pretty impossible which is a bad thing. Last of all, the network is pretty small so there aren't many games to choose from. PKR has potential, but it needs a lot of work before it's my site of choice.

3D graphics were fine but very slow. I think that 3D graphics is not good thing in Internet poker. The bonus is very great and other players very weak so this is good to play.

The competition was very fishy due the extremely heavy software which reduces many good players very much. Multitabling was almost impossible the way I wanted, because you have to look your holehards every time. Graphics were great, like sims but poker version. Phase tournaments earn PKR points quickly..

Well, it is certainly different. It's like The Sim's in las vegas. You can do a wide scale of actions which didnt stop amusing me. The games are very slow so you must be patient. On the other hand, the fishrate is quite good at least in low levels. I completed the required points by playing TAG in 2-3 25NL tables and at the same time letting some sparks fly at 1-2 6-MAX 10NL. So the points can be achieved at microstakes too.
In summarum, a good but slow aquarium where I found miself laughing out loud many times. Enjoyable, but only if you are not in rush.

PKR is really nice 3-D pokerroom but the software is very, very, very slow. And I didn't like the way of multitabling, only one window and active table is ok but non active table is too small, you dont even see it. The ring games is quite easy and there find allways players enought, easy to get Pokersavvy points even in one table! Like I sad, PKR looks nice but software too slow. Anyway, I can recommend this to everyone who needs easy Pokersavvy points.

The 3D user interface looks nice. Sometimes there were no players in limit tables, even if there were 7000+ players online, makes e wonder if that figure is actual or just made up...

The PKR software is very slow because of the 3D graphics and it's almost impossible to multitable. But the players are very bad at the small limits so it compensates the bad software.

This room is packed with fish waiting to offer up their stacks. I played for less than one week to meet the requirements and in that time I made over $700 profit + savvy points + deposit bonus. However they do get minus two stars for the slow game play and lack of ease for multi-tabling. Overall the games are soft, just don't let the slow game play put you on tilt.

Honestly, I don't like this site at all. Games are slow, the über 3d-graphics crashes the whole software down even if playing only 1 table, so multitabling is too difficult. And finally, the support sucks. I needed to wait 2-3 weeks for them to figure out why my moneybookers cash-out method was on disabled status. And when they did figure it, they didn't even tell me the reason why it was disabled. Plus, I needed to send them my driving licence (no cameras and scanners on this household).
But the games was very soft though (NL25 especially), and bonus was relatively easy to clear. That earns them 2 stars.

PKR is a 3D Poker Room! I Played just one table for fun because of all the graphics and things to watch. However, multi-tabling is quite difficult with this software. Luckily, the player pool is mostly all bad players because the grinders stay away!
Easy bonus :)

The software wasn't slow at all compared what i was expected. Games were soft and easy and sometimes pretty wild also. You really can read your opponent slightly better than in other networks. However, playing more than one table is almost impossible due the software gets really slow and you aren't able to focus your opponents so well. Bonus was also pretty easy to clear and I enjoyed PKR. It was very addicting, so be careful!!

I didn't like PKR's 3D software. Although my laptop is quite new, PKR's software was too CPU intensive. It stalled my computer sometimes. The games were slow and multi-tabling was painful. I'm not going to play there anymore.
Something different...

One thing is true: PKR is the closest you can get to a real poker game. You can choose your character avatar, clothes, hair and even your accent. You can make your character say everything you'd hear at a casino. You can even show only one card when you win a pot if you like. My problem is that if I want to play for real, I go to the casino. When playing online I want all the advantages of the virtual poker room... easy multi-tabling and fast games and you cannot get that at PKR. The games there are slow and multi-tabling is a real pain. The maximum amount of tables you can have open is only three tables anyway. It is worth noting that the bonus clears easily at $100 max buy-in no-limit Hold'em.

When I first played at PKR I thought it was really funny because of the 3D possibilities. The disadvantage of the 3D animations is that you can easily get distracted. Although the site is really slow and you can't play a lot of hands in an hour, the bonus is easy to clear by playing at heads-up or shorthanded tables. This site brings a new experience to the online poker world and it was worth playing there!
Nice graphics, but took awhile to finish...

PKR has really nice graphics and you can choose your own 3D avatar. There are not so many fixed-limit players, most people at PKR play no-limit. They have really nice freerolls that you can buy into with your collected PKR points, so it's worth it to play there and collect them!

Playing poker at PKR is kind of like playing The Sims. On the downside, their games are slow and it's hard to multi-table. Fortunately the players at PKR are not very good. I thought PKR was cool for about an hour, after that it gets annoying because of the slow gameplay.

This place was totally awesome! Basically, it's great! I played both $50 and $100 max buy-in no-limit Hold'em. Generally, it wasn't like a typical online poker where you play just one basic table because the 3D graphics bring the feel of a real poker room to this game. You can find more "tells" on the other players. 7,500 PKR Points wasn't very difficult to earn. In just one week I earned several hundreds of dollars in profit by only playing about two hours per day.

First, I thought playing in 3D could be fun, and it's true... for one or two hours maybe, but after that the slow gameplay, the resource-eating software and the impossibility to multi-table will just annoy you. In addition, the bonus isn't that easy to clear given the fact that you can't really multi-table. PKR gets one star for the fact that most of the players at PKR play so badly that you actually can't avoid winning some money. Don't be afraid to play one or even two limits above your regular games.
Nice for some time...

The first games you play at PKR are funny. The graphics are good, a lot of fish play there and the software works fine. But, as time goes by there are some cons... Slow tables, difficulties multi-tabling and even at the higher limits you will take a lot of bad beats. So, it is not a room to play at for making money, but the bonus is easy to clear.

This bonus was easy to clear. It took about seven days of playing at $0.50/$1 and some $10 Sit'n'Goes. The competition is very fishy and there are a lot of calling stations who pay you very well. The software takes about 800MB of disk space, so downloading the software might take a while.
Great design!

If you like good animations and graphics PKR has very cool software. The promotion cleared at a moderate pace. The player traffic was not so good, especially if you like to play Omaha as I do.

PKR's 3D software looks quite nice and has got a lot of nice features. The players are very bad, and because of that the games are very swingy. With a good and tight playing style you should make some money. The points required to clear this bonus are very easy to get.
Best looking software, but has some drawbacks...

I enjoyed playing on this site. The level of play is pretty low, you'll see people insta-calling everything down to the river, even calling all-in holding jack-high with no draw! Of course the software looks good, and of course adds a whole new dimension to the game. There are a few negative points, though. Multi-tabling is near impossible. If you have a large screen, you could maybe play on a different site at the same time, though. Also, the action is pretty slow. If you're a casual player, and don't mind playing only one table, which moves slowly, then PKR is a definite "Yes!"
Funny room!

I played there just for fun and I recommend this room for all players on tilt. But, I can't play a more than one table cause you can only have one window open and you must change between tables within that one window.

This site must be a joke. With all the CPU eating graphics it doesn't even look good. Players are poor, but the software spoils all the fun for me. Their bonus is not that easy to play through at the micro limits, but it gets a lot easier if you're playing $100 max buy-in no-limit or above. Also, loose-aggressive play is rewarded greatly when playing at PKR.
Annoying...

At PKR you can't really multi-table because of the fancy 3D graphics, and the pace of the game is awful. I gave it two stars only because of the fish you'll find there.

Easy bonus, and the software looks nice, though the 3D feature slows the action down. Multi-tabling is pure torture since you can only see one table at a time.

This was a way better bonus than I expected. The gameplay is not as slow as I read on other reviews as you can turn off the animations, chip tricks, "yeehaws", etc. This is what most players do. The games are soft, the players tend to call down with anything, which makes the play a little wild. There are enough tables around, but the action is almost always only 6-handed. Sometimes they have special promotions, once they doubled the amount of PKR Points you earn while playing for the weekend, which was nice. PKR only gets 3 stars from me because I didn't like the gameplay.
Good fun, but slow...

PKR has cool 3D effects with animated avatars. Their player traffic is light and mainly consists of no-limit Hold'em players. The animation is good fun, but because of this hands play slowly. It runs best with an up-to-date computer. No problems with the cashier!

PKR is a new poker platform to play online poker in 3D. You have to download a big software package, so a fast internet connection is necessary. The software has a lot of gimmicks, you can create an avatar that looks like yourself and you can dress your avatar however you like. At the tables you can emote to the other players behaviors such as laughing, congratulations, clapping and others. That can be very funny! You can choose a lot of camera positions to get a better view of the poker table, it seems like your playing on television! The only disadvantage is that the game speed is very slow, nearly like a real life poker game. At PKR you can play Texas Hold'em and Omaha Poker cash games, Sit'n'Goes and multi-table tournaments from low to high stakes. There are also some freerolls like every poker room. For your earned PKR Points you can play some extra freerolls that require PKR points to buy-in. PKR is very interesting and every online poker player should have a look at!
Good and Interesting!

PKR was an interesting experience with the whole 3D animation, but it doesn't really make too much of a difference in reading your opponents. Also, the site has very little to offer fixed-limit players, it is very difficult to get a limit game going.

PKR has the best graphics in the industry and this attracts another kind of player. So, you are likely to find PKR to be a worthwhile place to play. A big downside of their software is that multi-tabling is quite hard. All the time you are looking at your down cards. I managed to fold pocket aces pre-flop once after a tiny distraction, I had to tend to four tables at the same time and made it too late for one of them. Of course it was the table where I picked up those bullets. Oh well, it probably saved me from getting sucked-out on! Anyway, that's why PKR doesn't deserve the full five stars. I finished the SavvyPoints bonus after playing 2,000 hands at $50 max buy-in no-limit Hold'em.

I didn't personally like PKR's 3D graphics, might be because right now I don't have too good of a computer. But, if you like 'The Sims', you might enjoy PKR. There wasn't much action and I played through the SavvyPoints bonus mostly through Sit'n'Go tournaments. The required PKR Points gather up pretty fast!

Their software is horrible, slow, and uses up a lot of system resources. The bonus is calculated using contributed raked hands, and the opponents you'll face are gamblers. I did not like the 3-D view.
