It is good to know that Doyles Poker Room is once again open to players from USA. Older players remember Doyles Poker Room as part of he Tribeca group, but now as a part of the Microgaming group of online poker rooms known as Prima Poker, you guys can be assured of a more fun and profitable gaming experience.\They have also added some new casino games with the merger into the Prima Poker network. Personally, playing here in Doyles Poker Room speaks of a calm atmosphere, you will not feel much of the tension, instead you will feel calm and confident that you will win.

SOFTWARE

If you were an older player who had been there since the opening of Doyles Poker Room in 2006, I am sure that you have taken notice of the transition from the older Tribeca platform to the new Micgrogaming Platform of Prima Poker. Although changes are not that apparent at first, it still took me some time to get used to the new setup. I like how they added casino games as well. Player notes, multi table gaming capability and mini table views are one of the many things the new software is offering. What i do not like about this new software is the long registration process which makes me feel like it took me a month just to sign up.- Kidding. They should modify the registration process though, most Poker players are not as patient as me.

BONUSES

And yes, the best part of course, the Poker Bonuses. Doyles Poker Room is actually giving out different kinds of Poker Bonuses. At present, the bonus is 10% up to $550. A free copy of Doyle Brunson’s Super System I and II is awaiting those who will deposit enough money to get the maximum bonus.

PROMOTIONS

Honestly, i think Doyles Poker Room is currently running very few interesting promotions. One is that they are offering players a chance to win a week long intensive Poker training program with the world’s best Poker players. According to some sources, Doyles Poker Room take player fidelity very seriously and its Player Rewards program is dependent upon the type of hospitality that Doyle has enjoyed and come to expect over the years. A system of ‘action points’ is what , Doyles Poker Room use to determine player fidelity rewards.

“The Action Points system automatically rewards you while you play! You accumulate Action Points by playing in real money games, including single- and multi-table tournaments.”

Also they offer opportunities for players to earn action points that can be converted to Poker chips and Poker packages.

PLAYERS

If you want competition but do not want to bump into the giants along the way, then Doyles Poker Room is for you. Though some players here are a little below the average, you can also see some very good players here. Texas Hold’em can give you the soft competition you are looking for. But what’s nice if you can find Doyle or his son Todd, or even Mike Caro playing at a table, even if the thing you can only see is the action.

VARIETY

Doyles Poker Room offer a good quality of Poker games. You can choose to play the normal games like Texas Hold’em, Omaha Hi/Lo, 5 card draw, and 7 card stud or you can play Badugi which is exclusive to Doyles Poker Room only.

OTHERS

Regarding customer service Doyles Poker Room offers chat, email support and telephone support. However, it is much faster to do the live chat or telephone support. A response from the email support can take several hours.One thing that needs to be improved in this Online Poker Room is the limited banking options being credit card, Neteller, FirePay and wire transfer, while your cashout methods are just Neteller and bank transfer.

So there. I hope was of help to those who are considering Doyles Poker Room.
