Since launching in 2006, PKR has gone on to revolutionise online poker with it’s mix of stunning 3D graphics and interactive gameplay. Traffic has continued to grow with players drawn in by the fully customisable avatars, wide range of tournaments and the wonderful emotes that can be used during gameplay. At the time of writing, PKR is the fastest growing poker site in Europe.

Software

The PKR client is what sets it apart from all its rivals, and is arguably the biggest draw for new players to the site.

When you register you are given your own digital persona that you can mould completely as you want him/her. Piercings, tattoos and jewellary can all be added, while clothes hats and boots can all be changed. As you continue to play, you can use your loyalty points to buy unique items and unlock special chip tricks to use at the table.

In fact, there’s a whole range of options open to you when you’re sat down at the table thanks to PKR’s unique EMOTE system which allows you to show a wide range of emotions such as clapping, crying, stretching and even flirting. It’s never been easier to lure your opponent into making that call!

Games available

The selection of games offered to players at PKR is slightly limited, although it’s possible that this may change in the future. Currently Texas Hold ’em, Omaha and Omaha Hi/Low are all offered in limit, pot limit and no limit formats.

Tournaments

PKR has really improved its range of tournaments since they launched in 2006. Today they give away over $800k in guaranteed tournaments every month.

Saturday sees the $20k Guaranteed which is followed by the Sunday $25k Guaranteed tournament. There is also a the prestigious “PKR Masters” which is held on the last Saturday in every month and offers players a guaranteed prize pool of $75,000.

Competition and Traffic

At the beginning of 2008, PKR cemented their reputation as the fastest growing poker room in Europe when it announced that they had served 10,000 players simultaneously for the first time since they launched – just 18 months beforehand.

Since then, traffic has continued to grow with large numbers of players being attracted by the unique playing style that the poker room offers. Today, traffic is such that it supports the ever growing number of tournaments which are running on PKR.

However, the 3D gaming style is also bringing in a lot of curious new players who perhaps aren’t as strong at the game as you would find in other poker rooms. In other words, the competition is generally quite soft and players who play intelligently will find their bankrolls increasing steadily.

Support

PKR offer all their players access to an extensive Knowledge Base to help with their queries. There is also the opportunity to email a dedicated support team as well as a live chat service which is manned 24 hours a day.
