Party Poker is considered to be the model for online poker rooms to follow, and has been an industry leader for years. Despite losing some 85% of their total player base in 2025 after leaving the US market due to UIGEA legislation, Party Poker has been able to rebrand itself, and has become the top dog when it comes to European Poker sites.
As they set themselves up for the future, Party Poker has merged with the online sports-betting giant bWin, as well as purchasing the World Poker Tour, all of this in addition to signing such notable poker personalities as Kara Scott, Mike Sexton, and Tony G to head-up the Party Poker team.
Of all of the online poker rooms currently not operating in the US market, Party Poker has the best chance of a return considering they came to an agreement with the US Department of Justice in recent years, which includes a no-prosecution deal between the site and the US government –which should allow Party Poker to seamlessly return to the US market should the US government pass online poker legislation.
As the third largest online poker room in the world Party Poker trails only PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker in terms of overall traffic and of the three largest rooms is widely considered to have the softest players of the bunch. The vast majority of Party Poker players can be found at the NLHE tables, but the site has always been able to pull in Stud and Omaha players as well.
Party Poker’s software is perhaps the most functional in all of online poker, and offers everything an online poker player could ask for: Speed, reliability, smooth graphics, and all of the bells, whistles and special features that any other online poker sites offers.
Party Poker has a massive tournament schedule, and is known for their extremely loose players in both their multi-table tournaments and their Sit & Go tournaments. With a number of big guarantee tournaments each week for the high-rollers, as well as a robust freeroll schedule for the micro-limit players, Party Poker is sure to have all of your bases covered regardless of the stakes you play.
