The site of discussion today is similar to Tiger Gaming in that it is mostly for Europeans and Canadians. Everest Poker is filled with mostly inexperienced low stakes players, which is great for those with a solid game looking for an easy profit. If you want to play NL Holdem, the 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 online poker rooms. Oh yeah, and you might wonder why I listed the No Limit stakes the way I did. The NLHE stakes are detailed by stating the same number two times, even though it's just the number of the big blind while the small blind is half the same amount. I thought you should know that before you make the download and spend half your night being confused.

You'll be pleased to know that the Limit stakes are stated quite normally. They start at $0.02 - $0.04 and the highest you can play is $50 - $ 100. As with the No Limit stakes, players hoping to play very high will need to go somewhere else. The range of Sit-n-Go stakes is surprisingly good, however. They can be played for as little as $0.04 + $0.01 and as high as $500 + $30. I already mentioned that if you live in the States, unfortunately it is the same as Tiger Gaming: Everest Poker is not on the US friendly poker sites list. Residents of Russia and China are also not allowed to play on Everest.

The Everest Poker download has expanded considerably since coming into the poker world, and it is Everest's goal to establish themselves as a preferred poker room. Their growth is impressive considering they don't share networks with anyone else; they have their own network called the Everest Network. Where traffic is concerned, the Everest Network has the 6th most players on the Internet today. For someone new to money poker sites, Everest has a lot to offer.

No site is perfect, however, this site included. One downside is that only Holdem and Omaha are offered. This is strange considering that most online sites have the option to play at least Stud. Also, if you do not own a computer on the newer side, the program eats up more memory than a Full Tilt download. Everything considered, though, you'll find many more positives than negatives on Everest Poker.
