So I recently picked up this new game "PKR", an online poker game which I had seen advertised. From the website it looked great, it seemed to have great visuals along with a variety of games to pick from such as Texas Hold 'em and even "deal or no deal".
I got my account set up, was quick and easy and found my self, designing my poker avatar this was a nice feature, allowing various faces/hair and the other usal features another level to this is clothing which has tons of variety from polo shirts to sunglasses. They also have a nice system called "PKR points" which when you play in real money matches you earn points which can be used to buy new items such as tattoos or jeans. Pkr have done a great job designing their avatar system, which is very flexible and beats most MMORPGs in terms of customization.
Now onto the poker, I played for a while in the practice matches with "play" money this allows new players to get a feel for game and work out what the terminology means...along with the extensive player guide provided. In these practice matches I could really see how enjoyable it was to play even without money risks, Using the hundreds of emotes provides and the chat system can great unique social experience. The settings were also excellent too and highly detailed, from the house (with pizza included lol) to the profession arenas, it all just looks great.
I finally took the plunge and loaded up a $50 real cash (the horror), things now got extremely heated up even in the 4 cent games! Going all in and winning that huge $3 pot...well it rocks! lol.
The poker experience to be had here is unrivalled, PKR combines next generation technology with extensive customization options to create a game that flat out beats any competition and even rivals the real games. Another thing to mention here is how secure the game is, it works with alot of companies to keep things safe for all their players.
Deal or no deal the next game on the agenda, and i was amazed by this really...i expected a cheap "nock-off" version, but what I got was a Triple A standard game. PKR have done excellent in recreating this experience and this alone is a reason to pick PKR up, it can become very nerve wrecking picking you boxes since real cash is on the table and waiting for that dreaded phone call will leave you biting your nails! Luckily PKR have provided a nice scaling system that can make even low bets worth playing for.
Ultimately is PKR the online poker revolution? It certainly is, it has bridged the gap between games and poker, and poker with the casual players, while still catering for the big boys.
If you enjoy Poker or Deal or no deal...you need this game.
