PKR is one of the hot new arrivals on the gaming scene and was launched in the month of August, 2006. This innovative and exciting new online poker site has a unique interface which provides players with the opportunity to create their own poker avatars and customize their characters with whatever clothes and physical features they would like. In addition to this, the three dimensional characters are also equipped with emotive technology that allows players to set their avatars expression and mood. This three dimensional graphics however draw out the software downloading time, and the entire download process usually takes about an hour’s time and requires 450 megabytes of free space.
PKR has an excellent selection of tournaments but a rather limited game choice for players and offers only the games of Texas Hold’em, Omaha High, and Omaha Hi-Lo. If you happen to be great fan of Seven Card Stud Poker, then PKR is not the place for you. However, the website does have a lot of poker paraphernalia such as wallpapers, ringtones, and MSN icons and other poker related extras that you can download. PKR has good gaming standards and limits for players and has been classified as one of the top poker sites available on the internet today. |

| PKR has a very attractive interface and is fast. Its list of options are interesting and above the average poker rooms. Where gaming software for poker is concerned PKR has no current equal. The games are very impressive because of the three dimensional graphics inspite of the limited amount of games available. The customer service at PKR is available through live chat, email and toll free numbers for the UK and the US. The chat service is a little slow but the staff are friendly, professional and informative. The toll free numbers for the UK and the US have not been directly listed on the support page but have been placed in the “about us” section under the contact links. |

| Since PKR is a new site it cannot be expected to have the amount of player traffic that other older poker websites may enjoy, but despite its newness PKR has acquired a commendable player base owing to its unique three dimensional games and avatars with emotive technology and extensive international marketing. So far, over 300,000 players have registered and there is a daily max of 7000 players per day. This has caused the site to be abuzz with constant activity and the ring games and Sit & Go tournaments are always open and available to players. The site has drawn a younger player crowd who are eager to experience poker with the new 3-D graphics. The more experienced and professional poker players find themselves at an advantage and this puts them ahead in the game especially in the case of poker tournaments. Currently, PKR holds an advantage over other poker sites because it has such superior and innovative gaming software which provides an exclusive gaming experience and also because it has no competition in the gaming industry in regards to its 3-D graphics. |
