Everest Poker Review
08/09/2010 22:52Similar to Tiger Gaming, Everest Poker is targeted mostly at people learning to play poker for the first time, which is great for those with a solid game looking for an easy profit. If you want to play NL Holdem, the stakes start at $0.10 - $0.10, and the highest stake available is $50 - $50. This range is enough for most players, and people needing something lower or higher will have to use different download free poker sites. Oh yeah, and you might wonder why I listed the No Limit stakes the way I did. The No Limit stakes are detailed by stating the same number twice, even though it’s just the number of the big blind. The small blind is then half either of the numbers (since they’re both the same). I thought you should know that before you make the download and spend half your night being confused.
I don’t need to explain the Limit stakes, thank goodness. They begin at $0.02 - $0.04 and go up to $50 - $100. As with the No Limit stakes, this won't suit the players with the biggest bankrolls. Sit and Go's can be played for as little as $0.04 + $0.01 and progress up to a fairly large $500 + $30. You should keep in mind that like Tiger Gaming, Everest Poker is not available as one of the US poker sites. If you live in Russia or China, you are also unable to play on the site.
Everest Poker is a lot bigger than they were a few years ago, and they are trying as hard as possible to become one of the best online poker sites online. They are an independent poker room on their very own network: the Everest Network. They've become the sixth most-played network on the Internet in the past few years. For the beginner player, this site has a lot to offer.
As with all sites, there are still a few downsides. For example, Everest offers just Holdem or Omaha which is disappointing because most of the other money poker sites have the option to play at least Stud. Also, if you do not own a computer on the newer side, the software eats up quite a bit of memory. When it’s all said and done, however, there is a good chance you will encounter a lot more good than bad when playing on an Everest Poker download.
