Party Poker is the world’s largest, very popular, and most well-known poker site on the internet. PartyPoker.com has been online since 2001, is licensed and regulated by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission.
It has a wide variety of poker games and tournaments, good graphics, and fun software. Party Poker has everything - low limit games, high limit poker games and lots of poker tournaments. The big problem that they have however is that they are unable to accept US poker players, thus resulting in the loss of what was their biggest market. It is easy, safe and secure, offers prompt payouts and lots of games (Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, 7 Card Stud, 7 Card Stud Hi/Lo) at many different limits. You may make your deposit in PartyPoker via money transfer, wire transfer, Neteller, FirePay, Visa, MasterCard, Diners Club, PartyPoker's own affiliate IGM-Pay/Pay-Pro, or Citadel Commerce, so you have plenty of options.
Party Poker has adapted to the change and is now attracting record numbers of players from the countries that are able to play at the site, but the fact that the Americans are no longer able to play there means that they will probably fall further behind other sites who do allow them. Party Poker is also the sponsor for the "Party Poker Million" annual poker tournament, a televised event on the World Poker Tour with an estimated prize pool of over $7,000,000.
