iGlobalMedia

Launched as the flagship for iGlobalMedia's poker software, PartyPoker.com was first launched in August 200. PartyPoker is one of the fastest growing online poker sites that has thousands of players playing in its poker rooms on a daily basis, and claims to be "the worlds favorite poker room." iGlobalMedia took the existing arena of online poker and infused this niche with energy that was unseen in the online gaming industry. The iGlobalMedia poker software is a multi-player application that offers a diverse assortment of poker games and tournaments, including the famous annual PartyPoker.com Million tournament, which takes place aboard a week long cruise. The poker software uses iGlobalMedia's high-level software that offers eye-catching graphics and themes, and along with all of iGlobalMedia's gaming properties is licensed and regulated by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission.

With the smart downloader, downloading the software is easy and comfortable, and allows the player to start playing straight away. All the information needed to play is right on the application's main page. However, since there are so many options and games to play, it can be quite overwhelming for the novice user.

Once familiar with the application, players may choose from poker games such as Seven Card Stud, Texas Hold `Em, or Omaha Hi/Low, and take a seat at the poker table where there is a sense of a real poker room feeling. Each player around the table is assigned a character that represents them at the table, and can select how interactive the dealer should be. A major draw back that many players might not like is that hand history is not available right in the playing window during the games.

This poker application offers live chat at the poker tables as well as live 24-hour chat support to answer the technical questions. Additionally, iGlobalMedia offers free poker games at the play money tables, to allow the beginner poker players to learn how to play and see how the games work.
