Overview

Ten time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Johnny Chan has finally launched his own poker room. Chan Poker is part of a group of successful and high quality poker sites that make up the Ongame Poker Network. The traffic is excellent for a newer site, there are over 12,000 players logged in during peak hours. Chan Poker also offers one of the highest first deposit bonuses in the industry. The tournament action is one of the greatest attractions though, there are numerous guaranteed tournaments with prize pools exceeding $150,000. Chan Poker is home to the “Mad Tilt All In” tournaments. They are very fast paced, each player will start off with 100 chips and the blinds start at 10/20. If your looking for something different I would check these out. The competition at the tables is overall pretty weak, a good player could make a decent living at the tables.

Software

The software provided by the Ongame network is top of the line. Everything from speed to security has been tested and improved over the years. Navigating through the site is streamlined and the graphics are very sharp. The tables load very quick and the average hands per hour is pretty high. The lobby interface shows all the standard table statistics but you will have to click on the table once for them to display. The software doesn’t have many unique features, it was built for speed, reliability and to be highly functional. This is everything a poker player really needs.
