Poker Time Overview
PokerTime is part of the Microgaming Poker Network, sharing software and player base along with skins such as Doyle’s Room, Purple Lounge, Golden Riviera and Crazy Poker. Even though PokerTime still accepts U.S. players, some states are restricted and are not allowed to play. The mission statement of Poker Time says that the site is “bound to its high standards and principles, assuring you of all the support, security, integrity and outstanding customer service that make for this superior gambling environment."
Poker Time Game Features
The game variety of this poker room includes Texas Hold’em, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, Seven Card Stud, Five Card Stud and Five Card Draw in the No Limit, Limit and Pot Limit variations. As a skin part of a network, Poker Time shares its traffic with other sites. Most of the players are at the No Limit Hold’em tables but you can still find tables with open seats for other games.
The No Limit ring stakes range from $0.02/$0.05 to $200/$400. For Limit ring games the stakes range from $0.05/$0.10 up to $150/$300. There are plenty of tables in all stakes levels, satisfying the needs of any type of player. The tournament selection is equally impressive: single table (for 5, 6 or 10 players maximum), multi-table (for up to 4 tables), heads-up, rounders and extreme stack Sit & Go’s are available with stakes that range from $0.09+$0.01 up to $1,000+$50.
This poker site has two daily $15,000 guaranteed tournaments and one daily $40,000 guaranteed tournament as well as various freezeouts, a weekly $200,000 guaranteed tournament and a monthly guaranteed tournament. The daily $250 and $1,000 freerolls are quite popular.
Poker Time Software Features
The PokerTime lobby facilitates selecting the game, the type and the limit desired to play. The layout might seem a bit confusing but you will adjust to the lobby eventually. The Quick Start feature lets you choose between open tables. Play at this poker room is fast, there’s not much time to make decisions.
Customizing the tables is possible with the different options available: you can adjust the table size, use game markers that display the amount of money that was in the pot on every street, choose the seat of your preference at every table and use 4-color decks.
With the hand history function the players can store all the hand histories on their computer and use programs such as Poker Tracker; unfortunately, in order to look at the previous hands you have to request the number of the last hand and save it in a .txt file instead of looking at the hands instantly.
Poker Time Support
This poker room provides customer support 24/7 via telephone and email. The support team assists you in a friendly manner with good response times and quality answers. The PokerTime website includes two Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) sections, one for Guest players and one for Real money players.
