A Gentlemanly Guide to Online Poker

Site Survey

This is a bizarre poker portal with a very strange design and content. Supposed to look like something out of a Shakespeare play, it really is 'Much Ado About Nothing'.

Introduction: 1/10

Dozenpoker knows that First Impression matters so we have graded the portals according to their market status..

Poker for gents

An example from the Bestpoker site that shows its highly limited rankings and content

Firstly, the introduction page is written in 'olde' English welcoming us as 'scholarly associates' and boasting that it has 'stalwart guides'. Yet, really this is a gimmick hiding the fact that this is a poor excuse for a portal. The pictures chosen are classic paintings of men in tights, yet this has nothing to do with the game of Poker.

Reviews: 3/10

In this parameter one of the most important parts of the portal (the poker rooms reviews) have been graded..

The review section of this website is a joke. Consisting of a very basic rating system, the deposit bonus and the link to the casino, it really doesn't offer much helpful information for online gamers. This is one website where style has definitely been chosen over content, and even the style is lacking. The book reviews are one to four lines long and absolutely pointless.

Live Action: 1/10

This parameter evaluates the live action options and coverage on the portal..

There is no live action on this website, some of its links are out of date and the site is way behind the times in terms of content. It looks and feels like a portal to the past, not the future.

Tournaments: 1/10

This parameter grades the quantity and quality of tournament information available on the portal..

Ok, so there are no tournaments on the site either but there are two links to online poker tournaments but that's just not enough. Some of the tournament tips are helpful, such as 'playing solid' and 'when to be aggressive' but this is child's play and a little condescending to the average poker player. But, credit where it is due, it does offer a link to other tournament resources.

$$$ Rewards: 1/10

The availability of bonus codes of big poker operators will increase or decrease the scores in this parameter..

In some of the reviews â€“ especially, the online poker portal reviews, there are numbers of deposit bonuses that can be received but aside from that there is no other reward or bonus information available. This is another area where this flop of a site hits rock bottom.

Who's Blogging: 2/10

This parameter evaluates the amount and level of blogs on the portal. Is this facility being used, if so, how well is it being implemented?.

It would be useful to have some commentary or blogging on this site but unfortunately there's none to offer. Guess you'll just have to look somewhere else.

The Forum: 3/10

This parameter rates the portals according to the activities going on in the forum and looks at the threads quality..

You guessed it â€“ no forum here for users. Just links, links and more links. This is a site with zero interactivity and 'chat' is non-existent.

Reliability: 1/10

How reliable is this poker portal? With this parameter you can measure the quality and information on the portal..

The reviews are highly personalised with no basis for either the opinions expressed or the ratings offered. It's a one-man show in terms of content and that's why it gets a one here, begrudgingly.

News: 5/10

An evaluation of the quality of the news stories on the portal. Is it headline heaven or hell?.

They say 'no news is good news' but in the case of this online poker portal, some news would be nice. If you want to find out about the latest developments in software, entertainment, tournaments, events or anything else, then don't look here.

Support: 1/10

This parameter grades the quality and speed of the support system present in the portal..

No phone number, no mail address, just one email address for queries and questions.

'To be or not to be?' That is the question the old portal should ask.
