PokerView – Easiest Webcam Poker Site
January 17th, 2012 by Josh
Webcam poker sites are still rare in 2012 but one newer poker room has developed an easy to use poker client that supports webcam poker tables. PokerView has been online for a relatively short period of time but they have quickly dominated the web cam poker industry. Their only real competition is 888 Poker but they offer webcam poker tables on a limited basis and it is difficult to get the software and your webcam to work smoothly together. PokerView’s software is much easier to use when it comes to webcam poker tables. This is likely true because PokerView uses the Merge Gaming software and they specifically customized it with webcam poker in mind. 888 simply added a few webcam tables to their existing client so there are many bugs that they still need to work out so most of the people at the special webcam tables are not even actively using a webcam.PokerView is also ranked among the easiest poker sites to win money at. There are several factors that have contributed in creating this. Many of the poker rooms on this network also offer a casino and/or sports book. These players tend to only play poker every now and then, recreationally. This means that many have less experience and than the average online poker player and many do not bother reading strategy guides.
PokerView and the other rooms on this network run an insane number of freerolls each month. This attracts large numbers of inexperienced players. Today’s freeroll players tend to become tomorrow’s new real money players.
PokerView’s software is extremely sociable. Other rooms focus on features for serious grinders, like the ability to play at 10-20 tables at once. PokerView’s features include a rabbit cam, animated emotions and insults (i.e. type donkey in the chat box and one will appear on the table for all to see). Many people specifically play on this network because the view poker as a fun past-time or hobby, not as 40-50 hours/week profession or part-time job. This definitely affects the average players’ skill level. If you compare the players/flop percentage at PokerView with the stats from the same game/stakes at Pokerstars you will find that PokerView’s players are playing a much wider range of hands.
Add in the fact that they are the Internet’s leading webcam poker room and you get a site that is very fun to play at and easy to win money at. They focus on micro, small and mid stakes tournaments and they typically guarantee them for more than the actual prize pool would be otherwise. These are called overlays and PokerView hosts hundreds of them per month. If a $10 tournament has a $3,000 GTD prize pool but only 200 players signup you are getting extra value. Your $10 buy-in is really worth $15.PokerView also has a killer VIP program. There are four tiers in this program. Here is an overview of the benefits:
- Cashback – Receive part of your rake back on a daily basis. You will receive a minimum of 5% and a maximum of 35%.
- Freerolls – There is a monthly freeroll for each VIP level at Poker View. These start off at $750 and go up to $3,000.
- Cash For Points – Trade in your poker points at a 100 points/$1 ratio.
