The site I talk about in this entry is the same as Tiger Gaming in that it is also not one of the US poker sites. Everest Poker is filled with mostly inexperienced low stakes players, which is great for those with a solid game looking for an easy profit. No Limit stakes start at $0.10 - $0.10, and you can progress up to the highest stake of $50 - $50. Most players are satisfied with this range of buy-ins, and those that feel otherwise should consider alternate money poker sites. Oh yeah, and you might wonder why I listed the No Limit stakes the way I did. The No Limit stakes are described by using the same value two times, but this is in fact the amount of the big blind while the small blind is half the same amount. Why they chose to break with tradition and list stakes in this confusing way is a mystery to me.
Limit stakes are listed more sensibly, and they start at $0.02 - $0.04 and the highest you can play is $50 - $100. As you can see, players hoping to play very high will need to go somewhere else. Sit and Go's can be entered at stakes as low as $0.04 + $0.01 and as high as $500 + $30. I already advised that similar to Tiger Gaming, Everest Poker is not listed as one of the US poker rooms available to Americans. In addition to the U.S., players from Russia and China are also not allowed on Everest.
Everest Poker has expanded considerably since coming into the poker world, working extremely hard to be considered among the best ways to download free poker. They are an independent poker room on their very own network: the Everest Network. Where traffic is concerned, the Everest Network has the 6th most players on the Internet today. For the beginner player, an Everest Poker download has a lot to offer.
As with all sites, there are still a few downsides. For example, Everest offers just Holdem or Omaha which is disappointing because the best online poker sites these days feature at least some Stud varieties. Also, if you do not own a computer on the newer side, the software uses a fair amount of memory. But overall you'll encounter a lot more good than bad on Everest Poker.
