Gorilla Blackjack
Opponents
Party Poker used to completely dominate the online poker world. It had the most player traffic of any other 3 rooms combined. But due to bad press about rigging their games, and now with the US poker legislature, they’ve given up on their primary market. When they kicked the US players out, most of their revenue and fish went with it; there are still beatable opponents to be found, and they’re still one of the largest poker rooms, but nothing like they used to be.

The Gorilla The Gorilla doesn’t count at all: He just bets big, all the time. Typically, he adopts the pose of a drunken millionaire who has green to burn. The Spotters ensure the Gorilla’s luck by steering him to tables where he’s got greater than even odds of winning against the house.
Game Selection
Party Poker offers the big name games that everyone loves to play: Texas Holdem, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Low, 7 Card Stud, and 7 Card Stud Hi/Low. They also have the no-limit and pot-limit games for all of these. They used to be extremely well-populated, but that’s changed. They took a massive hit when they refused to cater to players from the United States, since they basically had the market cornered. They still have games running at most times, but again, not like they used to – and you’ll likely have some difficulties if you’re a 7 Card Stud fan, as the traffic there has slowed to a relative crawl.

Rewards/Bonuses/Jackpots
Party Poker offers some terrific signup and deposit bonuses, as well as having some of the largest jackpot games around. The bonus options for signing up with Party Poker are 120% up to $200, or $50 flat if you have a smaller budget. Their re-deposit bonuses change often, usually monthly. It’s difficult to peg Party Poker down because the bonuses are always shifting. However, since they’re so big, they can afford to pay out a little extra to keep their players around. You receive the bonus money at a rate of $1 per 5 hands, which is extraordinary.

Tournaments
The tournaments, both single-table and multi-table, are fantastic. No matter what you want to play with, Party Poker offers it. If you just want to sit down with a couple bucks and play some fun poker, you can do that most any time. If you want to play for some big money, they offer that, too. They’re also the host of the PartyCarbon Poker Million Dollar tournament, which is one of the largest online poker tournaments anywhere.

Customer Support
There are few good things to say about Party Poker’s customer support. Their deposits and withdrawals are still fast and easy, which is certainly the most important thing, but their customer support representatives are definitely not up to par. One-line responses to complicated issues, plus it can now take quite awhile to hear from them. This is probably also a reflection of the hit to their revenue, but even so, it’s an annoying issue.
