Game Selection (Rated 10 out of 10)

For cash games, PokerStars is the leader of the pack. You can find a game for any and all forms of poker at your fingertips, from Hold'em to HORSE. PokerStars offers a broad range of stakes to accommodate all bankrolls sizes. Just starting out? You can literally play penny poker as your skills and bankroll grows. Are you the next Patrik Antonius looking for high stakes action? PokerStars provides limit and no-limit games up to $1000/2000 and $200/400 blinds, respectively. Tournaments strike your fancy?

Quality of Players (Rated 6 out of 10)

With the vast amount of players that PokerStars draws, competition varies immensely. At the lower limits, the competition is full of players who seemingly saw a PokerStars ad on TV and are putting their poker skills to the test. However, as you move up in stakes, you will find some of the strongest players on the Internet, who play because of the superb gaming experience PokerStars provides. Each individual will need to decide whether or not they have the goods to compete with tougher opponents relative to other sites.

back to top

Software (Rated 10 out of 10)

PokerStars offers industry-leading software. They allow each player to customize the software to suit their needs. Multi-tablers can rejoice. Re-sizable tables were recently added to the software. In addition, it provides the ability to tile and cascade the tables inorder maximize monitor real estate. PokerStars also allows the player to save custom table layouts, so you don't have to spend time moving the tables into place every new session. The software provides smooth, fast, bug-free gameplay.

back to top

Graphics (Rated 8 out of 10)

The table graphics are equally customizable. PokerStars offers several themes for both table background and card designs. Each player is also allowed to upload their own personal avatar for free. The lobby design is simple, but user-friendly. Standard cash games and tournaments are displayed in monotone. Notable tournaments are given special colour codes, be it for rebuys, guarantees, or other special structures.

back to top

Profitability (Rated 7 out of 10)

PokerStars offers stiffer competition than other sites. However, with good game selection, one can still be profitable (as in any poker). PokerStars offers a small deposit bonus of 100% up to $50. PokerStars also offers periodic reload bonuses. They are cleared by earning Frequent Player Points (FPPs). For the smaller stakes players, this bonus is somewhat difficult to clear because you can only earn FPPs in cash games if the rake reaches $0.40. However, if you plan to play tournaments, this bonus essentially returns 100% of your tournament fees. Fortunately, these FPPs also have value independent from the bonuses. You can utilize them in the PokerStars FPP store to purchase various items including clothing, poker accessories, electronics, gift certificates, entries to bigger tournaments, and cold hard cash.

PokerStars Review



Posted Mar 17, 2010 by Meep13

PokerStars is a great poker room that has good customer service and a huge community. My only complaint is that the software could use some improvement.



           

Great amount of games...



Posted Jan 25, 2010 by Ralphmac

I love this poker room. You will always find a game here. Also, you just might get to play with a pro, they are always playing.



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Apr 24, 2008 by mirwap

The PokerStars bonus is one of the best bonuses at PokerSavvy! The first deposit bonus of $50 which you get at 500 FPPs (like the 900 SavvyPoints, too) is very good and one of the biggest and easiest to achieve. The site is always used by a lot of players, so it is possible to play your limit at any hour of the day at a lot of tables at the same time!!! The lobby is the only thing PokerStars could improve. It is not possible to get to a table with just 1 or 2 clicks to the game and limit you want to play, they only have a few different categories to separate the different stakes you can play for, "high" ,"middle", "low" and that sucks! But, the gameplay and graphics are the best of all other poker rooms! But be careful, I guess the players at PokerStars are better than at other sites, but because there's such a huge number of sharks, you can find fishes there too!!!



           

Good games, fast service



Posted Apr 19, 2008 by jugadorjavier

Poker stars always has games going 24 hours a day. Mostly Americans. There support and service is excellent. My moneybookers payout was paid immediatley to my account. A+



           

I Love Pokerstars



Posted Apr 18, 2008 by Line-Marie

I think pokerstars is the best pokerroom, because there so many bad players, who give their money :-).
there are ever many tables to play, many sngs and many many tournament for low buy ins.



           

Poker Stars



Posted Apr 17, 2008 by Bohawk

Every SNG takes no longer than 5 minutes to fill up. Lots of tables all the time for any game you can find.

Best site out there



           

Great site



Posted Apr 07, 2008 by chrisinjapan

Cleared over 3 months - started single tabling 10NL which is quite slow since at 6-max NLH the pot needs to be $4 to generate enough rake for a FPP. But as I improved I started two-tabling 25NL and things happened much quicker. Also the 29th Feb double FPP points promo helped a lot.

Lots of players and tables - not all full of nits like FTP but don't be hesitant to move tables for softer competition.




           

Easy points at Pokerstars



Posted Mar 30, 2008 by HannaR

Pokerstars was a great experience, evertyhing was fluid and the points and the deposit bonus were incredibly easy to clear :).



           

poker stars



Posted Mar 29, 2008 by shuminki

Great room.
Took me about one and a half month of play, though, can certainly be done way faster if you multi table around 0.25-0.50 cents games. Also, I got an additional $50 from poker stars upon completion of savvy promotion.
Highly recommend.



           

Good site, easy multitabling bonus



Posted Mar 18, 2008 by ferme

This bonus is easy for multitablers. PokerStars has great software that allows you to easily table up to 10 tables (or more?!). Fluid software. Great site



           

Good experience.



Posted Mar 17, 2008 by Mahut

It was fine experience on pokerstars. Bonus did appear 4 days ofter i cleared my VPP points required.

I bought my pokertracker, thx a lot!

Now i am clearing Betsson poker - looking for more points.

Cya Martin.



           

Hype?



Posted Mar 17, 2008 by Rovers88

I mean, I don't like Stars at all while other people don't play on any other room. I don't like the software, there are no bonusses, very bad promotions and the VIP-program is only good for SuperNova or higher. On top of that the payouts take about 3 days and the support is very slow. I just don't understand what people like about this room, apart from the many tournaments.

No... I'll play on iPoker and MicroGaming, much better rooms in my opinion!



           

Best Poker room



Posted Mar 11, 2008 by nikolcef

This is the best poker room. It is not too fancy, but there is everything what you need to play poker comfortable. There are a lot of poker players, a lot of cash tables, tournaments, promotions. The Poker Savvy bonus is not the easiest for redeeming , but first next to it. Also I got 100% Pokerstars bonus, and for 100 more points I also got T-Shirt. I redeemed this bonus, but continued to play at this poker room.



           

One of the best



Posted Mar 05, 2008 by simo78

I dont know how to start, everything is good in this place. Savvybonus, their own bonus, support and a lot of "bad players". I like very much of this pokerroom.



           

My PokerStars Review



Posted Mar 04, 2008 by fabioff

PokerStars has by far the best software and customer support. No matter when you want to play, there are always plenty of tables at every limit and type. The bonus clears really quick and I can recommend PokerStars for everyone who has not cleared this bonus yet.



           

PokerStars



Posted Mar 03, 2008 by kecpik

I played about a week and cleared bonus. If you want easy money, PokerStars is good for you. 50$ + 900 SavvyPoints are very good reason for playing on PokerStars. The software is good, and their support is great.



           

Huge room!



Posted Mar 03, 2008 by Urba

A lot of players, about 100000 all the time. For 500 FPP I get 900 savvy points, 50$ from pokerstars and I bought a hat for 400 FPP! Took few days to collect all 500 FPP at 50NL multiabling 4 tables.



           

It's your time to try some SNG



Posted Mar 03, 2008 by 3yefish

SNG-player's paradise. A lot of bad players all the time in low levels SNG (5-10$). The bonus was pretty easy to clear when multitabling 3+ table. You get 3FPP per 5+0.5$SNG and 5FPP per 10+1$SNG. Bonus is very nice in totality. Stars' software is one of the bests! ****½



           

My Review at Poker Stars



Posted Mar 03, 2008 by Eisbox

First of all, i guess theres no room that could mess up with pokerstars...

Wonderful software, good players and the bonus is very easy to clear.

It tooks 3h while playing 3 tables on 200NL.

Great offer!



           

Biggest poker room



Posted Feb 27, 2008 by macoson

Poker Stars is biggest pokerroom and best software. Bonus was quite fast but there is a lot of good players.



           

Great software



Posted Feb 26, 2008 by konkorde

You can always find games when you want. This is a great advantage to compared some smaller poker rooms. The software is very reliable and fast. It is easy to play many tables at the same time because you can make tables smaller if you want. Other players are a bit tighter and more agressive compared to for example iPoker but it is not too difficult to beat the games.



           

Pokerstars best site in online?



Posted Feb 22, 2008 by Cree-B

I think Pokerstars is best pokersite on online today. Software is clear and tournaments are great in this site. I recommend Pokerstars to all you onlinepoker players.



           

easy points and bonus



Posted Feb 22, 2008 by MOHXFOKELS

I played 8 tables at nl50full and it took only one session wich lasted less than 4hours and i got savypoints and 50$ first deposit bonus from pokerstars. Competition is NOT good when you just find the right tables (..pstars has like mmmmillion tables) Software and graphics are also obv good. Truly easy savypoints and joinbonus at least in nl50. oh and btw when you play 500points wich is needed to get bonus and savvypoints you can also order stuff from pstars shop with your 500points, t-shirt cost 500points! thats cool also :D



           

nice for beginners



Posted Feb 20, 2008 by pintmaster

A lot of players especially americans. Nice range of games. About 100 000 players online is there. Relly enjoy to play there. 5 stars for sure



           

One of the best poker room



Posted Feb 11, 2008 by makan18

As a title says, it is a very good poker room with great support and a lot of player in every part of a day. Besides I don`t play at Pokerstars now I am pretty sure that I`ll be back there in the future.



           

Great place to play!



Posted Feb 09, 2008 by padik

This is an amazing offer. It took me only a 3 days playing at NL25 to achieve 500FPP. Lobby is very nice, playing over 10 tables at the same time is easily - system is not slowing down. There are tones of players. At lower limits most of them are very weak. They have very nice FPP store. You can buy some clothes or poker accesories while playing. MUST HAVE option for everyone!



           

5 Stars for PS



Posted Feb 08, 2008 by pokerrose

This is one of the best pokerrooms.
A great savvybonus 900 Points, plus 50 Dollar PS Bonus for only a few hours of playing.
Nice graphic, good software and a friendly support.
One more bonus from PS, they added my account plus 750 FPP.
I like this Room!!



           

nice



Posted Jan 25, 2008 by Turkman561

Pokerstars became one of my favourites..Nicely loose games, ok client and moneybookers option. ok.



           

Playing at PokerStars



Posted Jan 25, 2008 by tipsa

The bonus for PokerStars was great as it was easy to complete and the poker room is one of the best, if no the best around. Collecting 500 fpps was fast and took only a week or so to complete playing on $0,10/$0,25 tables.

PokerStar is the largest online poker room and you could really see that as you could always get that kind of game what you wanted and you had a lot of options to choose from. Tournament selection on PokerStars is the best what you can get and so I'd recommend PokerStars specially for those who like to play a lot of tournaments.

Competition on as low levels as I play is relatively easy on any poker room and PokerStars ain't an exception on that.

Graphics were also great and all the menus were really clear.



           

Fast nice Bonus but very few fish



Posted Jan 24, 2008 by morsken

the bonus clears very good and fast at nl25 4table but the challenge is tougher than on other sites and there are very few fish unfortunately. neverthelesss still a great bonus!



           

Good place. Good players.



Posted Jan 23, 2008 by Tieski

PokerStras has a lot of players and they are generally good. Points were quite hard to earn for a small limit player like me.
Software is good and fast. Great variety of games and, in my opinion, the best tournaments out there.



           

Great pokerroom



Posted Jan 18, 2008 by polko87

PokerStars is superb pokerroom with a lot of players and very good tournaments. I would kindly advise you to give more pokersavy points for choosing PS cause it's really good, probably the best I' ve ever played.



           

mixed-bag at Stars



Posted Jan 06, 2008 by spdrtennis

This bonus is tough to clear at the lower limits (500 FPP requires a decent rake) but it's still one of the best out there for US players. Bonus - Tons of poor players at the low limits.



           

PokerStars Review



Posted Jan 02, 2008 by Pilsneri

This is pretty hard to clear at smaller stakes. Although there are lots of players and lots of fishes, so u can get game anytime of day. Best thing here is large amount of tournaments.



           

pokerstars



Posted Dec 22, 2007 by baslotinna

Nice poker room. A lot of players. Variety kind of games. Raked hand is "dealt" card rule, and pot must be more then 8$. Bonus could be finished for less then week. 900 savvy points+50$ from pokerstars.



           

Fixed limit hold´em grinding



Posted Dec 16, 2007 by Afrikantahti

I played fixed limit holdem here at the blind levels of 0.5/1 and 1/2 (short and full). Independent site. One of the biggest pokerrooms around, if not the biggest.

Pros:
-Lot of players. One can find decent tables any time of the day.
-Even small limits player like i am got enough frequent player points to make purchases from the FPP shop. I ordered 2 books which helped me to improve my game.
-Quality of the players varies

Cons:
-Quality of the players varies.
-Software isn´t the best. It feels slow and ankward time to time.

Summary: Great site. I would have given 5/5 if the software would have been better.



           

Simply the Best at PokerStars!!



Posted Dec 13, 2007 by stojakovi

I played at PokerStars for a few days and cleared bonus. PokerStars is simply the best! The site has a high volume of players at all limits, meaning there really is a going going at anytime. Recommended for EVERYONE!. If you play $25 No Limit Hold'em or $50 No Limit Hold'em, the site can be very lucrative!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Dec 11, 2007 by guda

Before visiting PokerSavvy I didn't know that PokerStars is the biggest poker room on the internet. They have a lot of players and games. I continued to play after I finished the PokerSavvy promotion, and now I'm collecting a ton of points to buy goods from the PokerStars FPP Shop!



           

Stars, Asteroids in the Kuiper Belt or Trabants!?



Posted Dec 04, 2007 by KQ_Croissants

Great poker room, they have more players than any other poker room (about 35,000 players around the clock) They have a nice support team, they respond to your questions very quickly, sometimes within 20 minutes! Their software has a nice layout, I like the style and the options to change the table layout and put a personal wallpaper as the background image. There are some good opportunities to play qualifiers for many different major events and money tournaments, but sometimes there are too many participants in some freerolls and other events, so it's very tough to reach the prize money! It's boring to play for two or three hours and still get nothing when you lose (e.g. a $500 Tournament with a 10 FFP buy-in.) Speaking of FPP's, it's very hard to earn them if you are a small stakes player, you must save them very well because the FPP Shop is very expensive.



           

I like!



Posted Nov 28, 2007 by Uunis

The software at PokerStars is good, also the graphics are pretty nice as well. The competition was mediocre, especially at $50 max buy-in no-limit tables. I recommend PokerStars more for tournament playing than cash games because they have many quality tournaments with big prize pools. The competition is a bit mediocre in the tournaments, too.



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Nov 26, 2007 by malamyska

It was a pleasure to play at PokerStars! They have lots of table designs to choose from, resizable tables and a lot of players. All that player traffic makes playing at PokerStars very comfortable. I played $25 max buy-in no-limit Hold'em there and it only took me a few days to clear the bonus requirements!



           

Excellent software!



Posted Nov 26, 2007 by Tailyn

For me, PokerStars is the number one online poker room! It has a great amount of active players and offers activity at both big and small stakes limit and no-limit Hold'em. Clearing this bonus isn't too hard, certainly not if you play at multiple tables. The graphics and gameplay are great, but the competition is relatively strong.



           

The best!



Posted Nov 23, 2007 by w00zy

I love PokerStars! Their software is perfect, the tournaments are the best around, the bonus is easy to clear... I could not ask for more! Many people say that PokerStars has the toughest competition out there, but I disagree. I played $0.50/$1 fixed-limit Hold'em and some Sit'n'Goes and I turned a big profit out of $50... and I'm a big fish! :)



           

Hard times...



Posted Nov 21, 2007 by Svendis

The bonus didn't work out exactly the way I wanted. There was lots of tough competition in the cash games and I ran into some bad luck, but the Sit'n'Goes are very beatable, especially at the lower limits.



           

The Best!



Posted Nov 21, 2007 by anchibica

PokerStars is the best card room on the Internet! After a few days of playing, I decided to stay and continue playing there. This poker room has the biggest number of players of any poker site out there!



           

Not so easy to clear at low limits...



Posted Nov 13, 2007 by nanouburg

I signed-up with PokerStars because I thought that it would be easy to clear this bonus at low limits, such as $0.10/$0.25 no-limit Hold'em. Playing at three tables at once, I roughly generated 30 to 40 FPPs per hour. On the other hand, this poker room is great! They have a lot of players, a lot of tables, and good software!



           

PokerStars is #1!



Posted Nov 12, 2007 by pokerpig

PokerStars is number one when it comes to online poker rooms! They have great and stable software, fair bonus conditions, and fast withdrawals. I highly recommend PokerStars! The only reason I'm not giving them five stars is because there are very few good reload bonuses.



           

All you need to play poker, and nice merchandise!



Posted Nov 08, 2007 by ALEX78

PokerStars is one of the biggest online poker rooms. You will find there a lot of poker Games: Hold'em, Omaha and Stud Cash Games offered in No-Limit, Pot-Limit and Limit at all limits from $0.01/$0.02 to $25/$50. There are a lot of Sit'n'Go and multi-table tournaments you can play. Because PokerStars has a lot of players, you can always find a table to play at and you don't have to wait for a free seat. Once you start earning frequent player points at PokerStars you can buy a lot of merchandise. With the 500 FPPs required to finish the PokerSavvy bonus, I've bought a nice PokerStars T-Shirt! Nice place to play poker!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Nov 05, 2007 by evvk73

Another good bonus! PokerStars has lots of players and good tournaments. Their software is very good! It's quite easy to get the SavvyPoints bonus even at smaller limits.



           

PokerStars is generally a good site...



Posted Oct 31, 2007 by slowplaya01

I like PokerStars because you can pretty much find a game at almost any limit in less than a minute. I cashed out by check and the checks only took about three or four business days to get here. The PokerStars skill level is somewhat embarrassing at times, but all in all it's a good site.



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Oct 31, 2007 by ollippeti

I think that PokerStars was really not a nice site. The players there were REALLY tight. The software was quite good, and the bonus was absolutely great! It took only about five hours playing at four $0.25/$0.50 no-limit tables at the same time. Unfortunately, the bonus was only $50 from PokerStars plus the 900 SavvyPoints. If you need to change $100 to $200, this is the place for you!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Oct 30, 2007 by Cobra89

Perfect! Get SavvyPoints from one of the best poker sites where you really want to play. It took a while to get the required points, but it was definitely worth the effort.



           

The best software!



Posted Oct 30, 2007 by Mr_Andrew

PokerStars probably has the best software in the world, you can play on 20 or more tables at the same time. Their bonus is easy to clear as you can complete the requirements playing $10 max buy-in no-limit games. The players there are just average, PokerStars is heaven for tournament players!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Oct 29, 2007 by Powercow

PokerStars is the biggest and one of the best poker sites on the net. PokerSavvy's bonus was very easy to clear. They have the best tournaments. I recommend this site to all who like to play tournaments!



           

Very Good!



Posted Oct 29, 2007 by Loco

Hi there! PokerStars is a great poker room. Their graphics are very nice. I claimed this bonus very fast playing $0.50/$1 no-limit Hold'em. PokerStars has a lot of players with nice skill.



           

Five Stars for PokerStars!



Posted Oct 24, 2007 by tatry1

I recommend PokerStars for all players. I played at 4 $25 max buy-in tables at a time and after five sessions of four hours each I had completed the requirements for this promotion. I was also able to buy a T-Shirt with the 500 FPPs I earned at PokerStars!



           

Strange...



Posted Oct 19, 2007 by SnelleShelle

Strange cards, strange boards, strange place... I've never seen so many quads in my life. Still, the SavvyPoints bonus is not too hard to get, so I give it three stars.



           

Top site!



Posted Oct 18, 2007 by Joni

PokerStars is definately one of the best, if not the very best poker site there is. Cash games have players at all times and the tourney selection is amazing, something for everyone. Easy PokerSavvy bonus comes with a $50 deposit bonus and you can even redeem the points you've gathered for a free t-shirt. 5 Stars!



           

Easy bonus, great site!



Posted Oct 15, 2007 by niksu444

The best thing about PokerStars was that there is very, VERY many players, so there are no problems getting games. This bonus is very easy to clear by multi-tabling $25 max buy-in no-limit or higher, in lower limits it can be hard. I definitely recommend that you clear this one!



           

Big network!



Posted Oct 14, 2007 by kolalocek

I cleared this PokerSavvy bonus in around 10 days. I played $50 max buy-in shorthanded no-limit Hold'em at two tables for one hour per day. PokerStars has good software with relatively good players. It is a very dangerous poker site for beginners. The graphics are disputable, their tournaments menu is not tabularly, and their freerolls overfull.



           

RiverStars...



Posted Oct 12, 2007 by Bombaharris

PokerStars is a very good poker room. It's easy to collect SavvyPoints from here, just play tight on couple of $25 max buy-in no-limit tables. They have lots of tournaments, Sit'n'Goes and also cool private events. I like the software and skin management.



           

My PokerStars Review!

PokerStars is, along with Full Tilt, one of the best sites I have played at, maybe the best. There are lots of great tournaments to play and with lots of people. I completed the bonus mainly playing $25 max buy-in no-limit and pot-limit games. The latter had lots of fish around. The PokerSavvy bonus is among the easier ones, in my opinion, and you'll get $50 from PokerStars at the same time you have finished the SavvyPoints bonus. The only drawback I can see is that I would probably have liked to continue playing here later on. But now I probably won't because I can't get a rakeback deal there.



           

Biggest choice!



Posted Oct 07, 2007 by LeeSue

PokerStars is the biggest poker room ever, with a lot of cash game tables, Sit'n'Goes, multi-table tournaments and of course the Sunday Million once per week. The tables are packed with good, skillful players and a lot of pros. The software is cool and very stable. I recommend this room!



           

Great poker room!



Posted Oct 01, 2007 by criticus

PokerStars is a great poker room. First, a few things about the room... It is very easy to find a table to play at, regardless of the limit or the type of poker you are playing. There are thousands of players, and that guarantees a lot of tournaments, cash games and Sit'n'Goes. Their support is great, withdrawals are very fast and easy. Furthermore, the FPP store is nice, and I like the layout and graphics. I found nothing to not like at PokerStars. As for the PokerSavvy bonus, it took me some time to reach the 500 FPP requirement because I played micro-limit games, but it is not really hard to reach the required amount of FPPs. I was able to boost my bankroll very fast. The skill of the players at PokerStars is above average, but it is not a bad thing. When you earn the required 500 FPPs you will get 900 SavvyPoints, a $50 first deposit bonus from PokerStars and you can also buy some stuff in the FPP store with the 500 FPPs you now have. High-rollers should clear this bonus in no time. So, I gave PokerStars the best rating possible because it is the best poker room I have experienced so far!



           

PokerStars, online poker leader!



Posted Sep 19, 2007 by datomz

A long time ago I played on PokerStars and I think it's the best online poker room. Nice cash games, and nice multi-table tournaments and Sit'n'Goes. A lot of people playing there at all times, PokerStars is the best!



           

Great software!



Posted Sep 19, 2007 by ekspertti

My friend said "Big online casinos are not good, and PokerStars is the biggest so it sucks!" I totally disagree! PokerStars is great! Because it's the biggest, there's always enough players at any stakes. I also like their tournaments. At my first tourney, I won about $108 and the buy-in was $2.20 (through a satellite.) I like the software, too. I can play nine tables at the same time (with my 15.4" display) and I still can see my cards! Finally, a casino where I don't have to guess if I'm seeing clubs or spades (it helps a lot in a poker!) The only bad thing is the bonus. Its only $50, but thanks to PokerSavvy I can get more than that!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Sep 17, 2007 by tomikos

I love PokerStars. I think they have the best software I've ever seen. The bonus is easy to clear with PokerSavvy. I collected about 40 to 50 FPPs per hour and a half of multi-tabling three $25 max buy-in no-limit cash game tables.



           

The PokerStars Advantages...



Posted Sep 17, 2007 by flopaset23

The PokerStars bonus is probably the best to start with if you want to build a big bankroll. The competition is pretty weak, their support is fast and the software is, according to me, one of the best in the industry. On top of that there's the fact that you're able to clear the bonus even on the low stakes. I'm glad PokerSavvy features PokerStars!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Sep 14, 2007 by Pjuton

The bonus for PokerStars was a piece of cake to clear. I played through it over the course of four evenings, playing simultaneously four $25 or $50 max buy-in no-limit tables. The overwhelming player traffic in the cash game tables at PokerStars also made clearing the bonus easy. It took 10 days after meeting the bonus requirements to get the SavvyPoints into my account.

This is a very good poker room, very good tournaments, Frequent Player Points accumulate very fast, and cashouts are very fast too. PokerStars is a great place to play!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Aug 31, 2007 by kaalinaama

Games for all, from low-limit to high. Excellent tournaments every day. Graphics are clear, but could be more detailed to my taste. Overall, a good site to play at.



           

Good promo, easy to screw up though...



Posted Aug 30, 2007 by Sunblocker

I'm indifferent about this promo... The conditions are nice, their software is among the best in my opinion, and there are plenty of fishes - but you gotta be careful. Playing at $50 or $100 max buy-in no-limit shorthanded tables, I found the games to be very aggressive overall, and at first got carried away a bit. Watch for the sharks among the fishes and you should do fine.



           

Very good!



Posted Aug 29, 2007 by SlamALot

PokerStars is a very good poker room. The software works great and the opponents are weak. It took me five days to finish the PokerSavvy bonus requirements.



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Aug 26, 2007 by Mazaayup

At PokerStars you can find best tournaments. Also, some of PokerSavvy's bonus tournaments can be found here. Games aren't so tight at the lower levels. Lots of players around 24/7. It's an easy place to make lot of money if you choose to play against poor players which you can find easily. The SavvyPoints bonus is excellent!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Aug 22, 2007 by hellfish123

PokerStars has amazing software, but there are many strong players and it's not so easy to finish that bonus when you are only playing low limits. But, I think this is the best poker room I have ever played at, so I gave it the best rating.



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Aug 21, 2007 by jarttu

In my experience, PokerStars is one of the easiest places to make money, at least at the $50 max buy-in no-limit level. It's full of fishes and you'll probably end up earning a lot of money while collecting the 500 FPPs needed for the PokerSavvy bonus. Earning the points goes by quite fast too, so it won't take a long time to finish this promotion. However, it took a long time for me to receive the SavvyPoints for PokerStars, but eventually I got them. Thanks, PokerSavvy!



           

Very nice poker room!



Posted Aug 21, 2007 by baksiu1928

I think PokerStars is a very nice poker room. More tournaments and cash tables than anywhere else. I'll only play at PokerStars now!



           

Where the WSOP champions play!



Posted Aug 17, 2007 by fl8xe

The software seems to be pretty old, but has some nice features. The competition is really tough at PokerStars. I pretty much liked the bonus the most.



           

Always someone to play with!



Posted Aug 14, 2007 by Leviathan

The software seemed great to me and I also enjoyed the graphics. Also, you could resize the table, which is important to me. There were a lot of players, so I could multi-table at any given hour, day or night.



           

Okay...



Posted Aug 13, 2007 by chillbill

Nice software with the possibility to play everything you want to play in poker. Good bonus, a must have account!



           

Big one!



Posted Aug 13, 2007 by hustleredbull

PokerStars is the biggest online poker room.... More tables than you will need and action all the time. Nice and easy SavvyPoints bonus.



           

Best Software, Tough Compition!



Posted Aug 10, 2007 by Dime

I like the PokerStars software very much, they have resizeable tables and clear graphics. The competition at $1/$2 limit tables is pretty tight and aggressive, not too many fish there, but the Speed Sit'n'Go tournaments are my favorite! At PokerStars the rake is not that high, for a $15 buy-in you pay $1 in rake, which is not bad at all. So, one of my favorite sites to play at. Thumbs up!



           

PokerStars Rules!



Posted Aug 09, 2007 by Bonterosa

PokerStars is a very good site. I like to play at $0.25/$0.50 no-limit tables and there were good games there. The bonus was quite easy to complete when playing at tables where the average pot is big enough. It was nice to order products from the PokerStars Frequent Player Points store and use my own points to get some extra free gifts. I like the graphics of their software. After all that, I have nothing to complain about.



           

A lot of SavvyPoints!



Posted Aug 08, 2007 by qwasny1

This is a poker room with a lot of tournaments. Everybody can find something that suits themselves. It takes two days of playing $50 max buy-in no-limit Hold'em to complete the bonus requirements! Many SavvyPoints to get at PokerStars!

A lot of tables, tournaments and other poker action. You can play there all the time and don't have to wait long for Sit'n'Goes to start. Perfect!

Great poker room! A huge number of players makes it easy to find company to play with. The bonus was good, too. You don't just get 900 SavvyPoints, you also get $50 from PokerStars as a sign-up bonus plus a cool t-shirt from the PokerStars store!



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Jul 25, 2007 by maasn1983

One of the two biggest sites in online poker. You can always play there, any game, any table, for any stakes. With up to and over 100,000 people online playing at the same time you will never have to wait to get some action! PokerStars is the best site with the best client. One not so good thing is if you aren't a high stakes player, the PokerSavvy bonus is not so great for you. If you are a high stakes player, the bonuses are very, very good!

PokerStars is a really big poker room. Freerolls are German paradise! I got my SavvyPoints, I waited for about a month and missed out on June's bonus SavvyPoints. Otherwise good, but service is slow.



           

PokerStars Review by Greg



Posted Jul 09, 2007 by Has_X

The skill level of the players here is moderately low at the $.25/$.50 no-limit Texas Hold'em tables. It's very easy to find games with the sheer size of this site. The software is user friendly, and it's easy to multi-table. The bonus is not that hard to complete, but expect to get outdrawn on the river more often than any other site online, tread carefully.



           

PokerStars is the standard!



Posted Jul 08, 2007 by teamzissou

PokerStars is probably the slickest, most reliable and best online poker room out there. The software is very nice. Their customer service is excellent and, most importantly, they have the best traffic available for US players since the recent legislation. The tournament options are very good as well. If you could only choose one site, this should be it. In addition, the promo is pretty easy to clear. I played $1/$2 limit and $25 max buy-in no-limit and cleared it fairly quickly.



           

My PokerStars Review!



Posted Jul 05, 2007 by Orpheus83

Overall I had a positive impression at this poker site. There are always games you can join and the competition wasn't bad either. For some reason I didn't like their software too much. Clearing this bonus was fairly easy at $1/$2 fixed limit. At any lower stakes it would have been much much harder. 900 SavvyPoints and $50 of their own welcome bonus is pretty good, and you can spend earned FPP's in their store for some merchandise!

Posted Jun 27, 2007 by jazzo33

Superb! I earned the SavvyPoints very quickly and made some money from playing poker, too. I liked the graphics of the software, and I'm sure I will return to PokerStars later. Maybe after I've finished some other PokerSavvy bonuses. I really recommend this one!



           

I wannabe a Poker STAR!



Posted Jun 27, 2007 by binks

Very nice SavvyPoints bonus plus they have an easy sign-up bonus. Some of the greatest and fastest support of any poker site on the internet. With NETeller you can deposit in Euros to avoid double conversion fees. Thanks, PokerSavvy!



           

Everything is good at PokerStars!



Posted Jun 26, 2007 by SirPumpkin

You'll find many good players, and not many fishes. It's aggressive-style poker. The software is great, but I don t like the graphics, I find the blinking players disturbing. Their customer support is good. I will play at PokerStars again sometime!



           

Best Software!



Posted Jun 19, 2007 by corny

PokerStars is the perfect place to play at. The software rocks, but the games are quite tight. You'll find some fish, but not as many as the other poker sites. The SavvyPoints bonus is very easy to get!



           

Best site ever!



Posted Jun 11, 2007 by parayvendenesse

PokerStars is a nice site and the SavvyPoints bonus has easy requirements. A must do!



           

I like it!

Great site. Great support. Nice deposit bonus. Pretty tight games, but still profitable. 900 SavvyPoints and it takes only few hours. Recommended to all!



           

PokerStars is the best available in the States!



Posted May 17, 2007 by salukidean

Their software is very easy to use, the game selection is immense, and the amount of players is more than sufficient at any hour of the day. The only drawback is that it's tough to earn their Frequent Player Points to qualify for the bonus unless you are playing at table limits of $0.50/1 or higher.



           

Donkey!



Posted May 17, 2007 by ivohendriks

Sometimes you win sometimes you lose! All-in on the turn with pocket Kings, get called by a player holding pocket deuces with a board showing of K245. The river, of course, is a deuce. This happens to many players. Almost every time the flop is like AKK or AKQ, maybe a new update for PokerStars.



           

Multi-tabling...



Posted May 15, 2007 by stefano85

The thing I liked is that you can resize tables to allow you to play 8 or more tables once. The bonus was easy to clear, but I think players are tighter here than at other sites, so it is not that easy to make money here.



           

Overall Good!



Posted May 08, 2007 by mimicmimic

The site was very well run, lots of people on at all times. For me the competition was good at the lower levels but I experienced hard time when I moved up. This is a well run site. Got my bonus, which is nice too.



           

Good players



Posted Apr 23, 2007 by mpietari

Most of players on this site are pretty tight and solid, i lost some money but 900 savvy points makes it OK :)

Pokerstars



Posted Apr 19, 2007 by MiamiAlex

Most popular and probably one of the best online poker rooms at the moment. You can find any game from micro to high stakes 24/7. The only problem is that it's almost impossible to get rakeback to PS, but with Frequent Player Points you can actually buy goods from PS Shop. Anyway Pokersavvy sign-up and PS sign-up bonuses are extremely easy to clear, took me about 3 hours playing NL50 6 tables. Security is good and PS have 24/7 customer service. I highly recommend to try Pokerstars.



           

Good site



Posted Apr 19, 2007 by raaq

The bonus takes a while to clear but is very rewarding when you get both the Savvy bonus and the sign-up bonus with the same amount of points (500 FPP). And then you can also use the FPP:s to purchase something from the FPP store.

Recommended.



           

Finally



Posted Apr 19, 2007 by skabb69

we get a proper Stars bonus. Great software, lots of tables, and a decent amount of fish. A very nice and profitable site to play at. Cant beat their comp system either. I didnt like the graphics to much, but some tweaking fixes that. The waiting list system is also horrible, but still one of the most recommended sites on my part.



           

Could be a Homebase...



Posted Apr 17, 2007 by elmo_letsgo

Nice software, lots of tables anytime. Fast, easy to clear bonus and SavvyPoints one day later in my account... Perfect!



           

Very good website



Posted Apr 17, 2007 by IceCreamMan

The Pokerstars bonus is very easy to clear (I cleared it in around 2 days by playing 3 NL50 tables)

Players are better than other website, a lot of them like to play TAG style.
Good website, good bonus but be careful with the few sharks ;)



           

There is always a game.



Posted Apr 05, 2007 by salmister

Good place with lots of players. This site allows players from the USA, so there is great deal of fish, too.

PokerStars has one of the best interfaces available, resizing tables, incredibly fast cash-outs and clearing the bonus is very easy!



           

Lots of players at PokerStars.



Posted Apr 01, 2007 by thony

This is a great poker room to play at. There are always lots of players and you always find tables you want to be playing at. The software is also good and money transactions are super fast. When I withdrew my money, the amount I deposited came instantly to my NETeller account, and the rest came some hours later. Very nice!



           

Finally !



Posted Mar 29, 2007 by Mriswith

A sign up offer worth giving PokerStars a shot! Their software is one of the best when it comes to multi-tabling due to the resizable tables, and playing No-Limit $50 max buy-in short-handed the FPPs accumulated quite fast. Opposition is a bit tougher than on other sites, but since there's plenty of games to choose from you'll manage to find a profitable one.
