  A little background about True Poker  
 
  True Poker is a site that offers you the best of action, and the best of graphics. I find them one of the easiest sites to navigate and to play at. Their claim is that they offer the most realistic poker experience on the web and this is probably true. I believe they have the most realistic game play of any online poker room. If I had to describe True Poker in one word, it would be FUN. To me, they're the most enjoyable site on the net to play at. They have everything that I would want in an online poker room, and then they add that little extra. The graphics at True Poker are second while offering you a very safe and satisfying poker experience.
 
 
   
  True Poker is very good when it comes to service. They are one of the few sites that give you a live host in both their lobby and at the table. This means there is someone ready to answer your questions 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Their software is comparable to other sites when it comes to your safety during play and when giving personal information. They are also really cracking down on all-in violations that proves they are continually trying to make things as fair as possible for everyone. All their hosts are long time poker players and this allows them to fully answer all your poker playing questions. These hosts also monitor game play to make sure players are conducting themselves appropriately at the tables. Like most other sites, True Poker offers you full table stats along with personal hand histories to help you maximize your money. They also offer poker tutorials given by Sklansky and Malmuth who are world renowned poker players and strategists. True Poker is also the only site that allows you to make deposits and withdrawals for free with your Net Teller account and offers a wide range of deposit options. You will always receive top of the line service at True poker.
   
 
   
  True Poker has really improved in their promotions and bonuses they are offering their players. First off, they have a player point system where you earn points for each raked hand you are a part of. You can redeem these points for True Poker products, entries into special tournaments, or even vacations or motorcycles. They have daily free-roll tournaments where they give away a free $500. They just finished giving away 8 seats in the World Series of Poker and are having $10,000 added tournaments starting March 30th. True Poker has just launched a 20% sign-up bonus for new real money players. Keep a watch on their website to see what new promotions True Poker is coming up with in the future.
   
 
   
  When it comes to game play, True poker is the best on the net. They have the most realistic graphics and truest to live game play. True Poker is the only site where you can pick up and put down your cards. This can give you little insights into what the other players at the table may be holding. They also offer you a choice of characters. You can choose between numerous different and interesting people to portray you while you're playing at the table. True Poker also incorporates sound effects and voices into their game play software. You can easily chat with other people at the table but you can also say certain words to people just to add a little more realism. Player bank-rolls and pot sizes are clearly displayed while you're seated at the table and the chips at True Poker are more realistic than anywhere else.
   
 
   
  True Poker offers Texas Holdem and Omaha (straight high and high-low). These games are offered at limits as small as $1-$2 all the way up to $15-$30. They have now introduced pot-limit and no-limit games with buy-ins ranging from $50 to $100. They currently offer short-handed games along with their 10-man tables. They also offer all these games for play money in case you aren't ready to play for real money. I enjoy the tournaments at True Poker more than any other online poker room. They offer a constant roll-over of tournaments, 24 hours a day. The buy-ins at the tournaments range from $1 to $100 so you get a good range of stakes. They also offer all these tournaments for play money. On the weekends, True Poker offers big tournaments with guaranteed prize pools of up to $10,000 along with free tournaments where they give away True Poker clothing. If you like playing tournaments, True Poker is the site for you.
   
 
   
  True Poker is one of the busiest online poker rooms out there. True Poker is very good at attracting new clients and the fact that they have some of the best graphical software on the net means they attract a lot of new poker players (players that are trying poker for the first time). This leads to soft games where you could make some good money. There is constant action 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They usually have at least one high-limit, texas holdem game and plenty of smaller limit games going on all the time. I feel that if things keep going the way they are for True Poker, they will be next to Paradise poker at the top of the online poker industry.
