MetropolitanPoker.com used to be an online poker room but in 2008 they shut their doors. The world of online poker has changed much since then and there are much better places to play poker. Pokerstars is now the leading poker room on the internet and boasts 280,000 players at the tables at once during peak hours. This web site will provide you with reviews of the top online poker rooms along with instructional guides on how to play various forms of poker. Our poker guide contains rules and strategy articles for every major poker game available online. I also run the internet's best H.O.R.S.E poker and 7 Card Stud poker web site so if those games interest you be sure to check them out. We are offering special incentives to new players at many of the poker rooms listed on this site. These incentives range from higher then normal deposit bonuses to private freerolls with huge prize pools and small playing fields. I have added some links below to the major pages on this web site.
The online poker rooms lusted below represent the best the internet has to offer U.S. players in 2010. Each of these thee rooms has some unique quality that certain type of people will find interesting. Pokerstars ranks #1 for virtually every aspect of online poker but Absolute and Cake Poker each offer something that isn't available at Stars. For example, Absolute Poker is a mid sized room that has a complete casino suite (70+ games) built into the poker platform. At Cake Poker you'll find the softest Texas Hold'em competition in the world, which is due to the large number of casinos and sports books that use their software. We are offering an exclusive bonus at each of these rooms in 2010. You must enter our special bonus codes when you sign-up to receive the bonuses mentioned below.
