poker.com is a poker site and a forum. However no new users can sign up to poker.com. Its only open to the old members, but you can play at carbon poker, which is the same network as poker.com or poker nordica.

I just started playing at Poker.com a few days ago and I think it's great. You can easily turn down the music by going to setting on the bottom of the home page.

Guys...this thread is over 13 months old. Surely if this topic is truly relevant, you could start a new thread fresh with current info.

I've been moving money into and out of Poker.com for months with no problems at all. Their customer support is first rate and I have a good relationship with their customer service rep if anyone has problems. Chris from the site also isits the form occasionally...

Hi Guys
I'm really glad so many of you have found Poker.com, it really is going to be the biggest and slickest site for playing poker.
Over the last six months this site has come on in leaps and bounds, they have pre-suggested in the forum changes such as limited rebuys for the play money players that caused an uproar from many members but as time unfolded it has made this area so much more fun for all and indeed silenced the pre-change critics.
Also they do respond to your enquiries and suggestions and have kindly supported the growth of poker in Shetland by giving us our own web page www.poker.com/shetland and sponsered our local tournaments.
Great site, great people, great fun, that is what it is all about.
Cheers Liam, Helen and all the guys

It's not entirely unheard of to count only hands where you've contributed to the pot... although it's more common with affiliate payments (Paradise, for example, counts a raked hand normally for bonus payments, but only counts ones where you contributed for the affiliate CPA commissions).
It would be nice if there could be some agreement on a standard term for this, though. Something like 'contributing hand', perhaps. If enough people could agree on a term to pursuade the poker sites to use it then we wouldn't all need to work out how the site has chosen to interpret 'raked hand'...

I'll add that unlike some other sites (like Absolute), Poker.com doesn't have any requirements as to how big the rake has to be for the hand to count, though. Poker.com bonus clears fairly easily, IMO. Sites where they don't have the requirement to put money in the pot must have tougher requirements somewhere else to compensate, and it's usually in either number of raked hands required or how big the rake must be.
But yes, read the Terms&Conditions. Many poker sites have written them in a ery confusing manner, though, and often the information you want isn't readily available. This is where emailing support comes in.

Poker.com is my favourite by far, though the change of the freerolls to 1000 people rather than 2000 has made them all but impossible to get in unless you hang out in the lobby. Was ery disappointed when they made that change. (A freeroll today with 1000 people was full in just 3 minutes.)
If I had one complaint, it would be the responsiveness of the software. Occasionally I'll hit the button to check, call etc... And nothing will happen. I've had it fold a few hands despite the fact I was trying to call or raise. This is when the connection meter was fully green.
Poker.com is my room of choice, followed by Absolute.

I first went to Poker.com to take part in the Cardschat comps and was immediately impressed by what i found.
I did turn the music off but thats only because i usually play with the t on (baseball, poker shows etc).

Overall it seems the site is getting a big thumbs up

Hi Everyone,
My name is Chris and I represent Poker.com. If you have any questions feel free to post them and I will try and respond as quickly as I can.
I find it encouraging that many of you enjoy our poker room. It is good to hear more positives than negatives.
I wish you all luck in the Cardschat Buy-in Tournament.
Regards,
Chris

I think poker.com is the best set up out there at the moment. It's run really well, the freerolls are good and it's nice to be able to set up your own tables.

I deposited there over the weekend. Noticed they have lots of Omaha tables and no one playing on them... managed to find one other person for some heads-up play yesterday, though.
Does anyone know what the arying numbers and colors of stars on people's identity bars indicate there?

It's still not my favorite site, but they have some ery cool features. My main concern is that the games seem slow, which I suspect has to do with people leaving the animations on and therefore "waiting for their cards". But I can live with that.

Their customer service is awesome, quick, responsive and polite . I love
Poker.com..it's easy to rack up raked hands to play in the bigger freerolls
but I just can't win a SNG to save my life there

It's fast becoming one of my favorite sites. I love it that you can create your own table to your own stakes. And the card drops seem to match live play more closely than other sites.

I have to say, I have played at many poker sites and some have their pros and cons but Poker.com impressed me. Not only is the game play fast, you can create your own table in a snap. I also enjoy the cool background music. I don't know much about their customer service support but so far, this site is probably one of the best I've played. What do you think of Poker.com?
