Virgin Poker Review
Virgin Poker is yet another online poker
website that is owned by the Virgin Group, and it is also an online poker
website that players will love to come back to again, and again.
First off, Virgin has really made it quick
and easy to register an account and start playing, and the artwork is and isn't
all tacky like other online poker sites, which make you want to where
sunglasses from the glare their websites give off. They also include many
free tournaments, which are fun and easy to get into.
Perhaps the best "feature" at
Virgin Poker is the fact they the designers put so much time and effort into
the detail of the overall poker experience. Another attracting fact is
that there are well over 500 live, online tables, which means there should
always be a seat open for you. The bonuses at Virgin Poker are also
really good, and go well with the other promotions that Virgin runs.
You'll be able to see all available tables
at Virgin Poker from the Lobby screen, as is standard throughout all online
poker websites. There are three types of games, which you can play in the
poker room. Theses three games are Texas Hold'em, 7 Card Stud Poker, and 5 Card Draw.
Notable is the absence of Omaha,
because it is pretty much a staple online poker game, but 7 Card Stud and 5
Card Draw more than make up for it's absence. There are a couple
different types of betting available at tables, and you can choose which table
you'd like to join based on the style of betting they are using, and, as with
other online poker rooms, you'll be able to play for free, as well as real
money.
Virgin Poker runs a system of V*Points,
which can be earned through promotions, or by playing for cash. These
V*Points can be redeemed more many different items or services that Virgin has
such as Virgin Atlantic Flying Club Miles or a Virgin Mobile voucher, which you
can use to get one of those fancy pre-paid phones.
For beginners, Virgin Poker has many tips,
and even an online poker school, which is run three times a week on Wednesday,
Thursday, and Sunday. These two things will help you sharpen, and
hopefully master your poker game without all the hassle of learning for
yourself. Who has time to do that now-a-days anyway?
Virgin Poker also has many poker related
features, such as poker blogs, tournament information, a Poker Tales tab, which
has intriguing stories from the wide world of poker, and a tab with information
about Virgin pro's.
Overall, Virgin is a solid online poker
site, with three great poker games, a solid user base, and good software.
It is recommended to new players, as well as the more experienced players, and
even for those people who just want to play for fun, and not money.
