Established in 1999 and as the sister site to Casino-On-Net, Pacific Poker is one of the oldest and most trusted poker rooms online. In my experience, Pacific has the softest low limit games that can be found. Recently they added no limit ring games and they have tournaments with a wide range of buy ins as well. Check out their

Limit Texas holdem is spread from .05/.10 to 30/60 with plenty of full games at all levels, including 30/60. Pot limit Texas holdem is available with buy ins from 10 to 200. No limit Texas holdem runs with buy ins from 10 to 600. The no limit games also always have full tables at every buy in. As mentioned above, the majority of games at Pacific Poker, especially at the lower limits are very soft. Just by playing tight pre flop you can do very well, even if you are still working on the rest of your game.
Omaha high is only available in limit play, with limits ranging from .05/.10 to 30/60. There is action at these tables, particularly at the lower limits, but there is not much game selection. Upon a recent check, there were six Omaha high tables running, and none of them were completely filled.
Omaha/8 is also only available in limit, from .05/.10 to 30/60. There is a little more action at the Omaha/8 tables than at the Omaha high tables, but not much. Most of these games are filled with holdem players who are looking to try something different, so they can be very profitable.
7 Card Stud and 7 Card Stud high low split are available in limit only from .05/.10 to 30/60. The 7 Card Stud games run full at many limits but the only 7 Card Stud high low split games are at the lowest limits.
Single table tournaments, or sit n go tournaments, are available with buy ins from 1.50 to 785,

with most of them running six and ten handed. Of course there are also multiple multi table tournaments every day and they run a $50,000 and $100,000 tournament every week with satellite tournaments starting at only 1.10.
Though Pacific Poker has improved their software a great deal, it is still not one of my favorites. In addition, their payouts are slow compared to other sites, often three to five days. I have always received exactly what I was supposed to, so I trust them, it is just a little slow. They have a free download of their software and they also have a no download version available for Mac and Linux users. That being said, even with the average software and slow payouts, the softness of the games make it all worthwhile. I highly recommend trying them out to at least clear the bonus and see for yourself.
Party Poker Party Poker is the largest online poker room with over 70,000 players online at most times. There are always games of all sizes and limits available including Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha/8, 7 Card Stud and 7 Stud/8. There are around the clock multi player and sit-n-go tournaments as well as ring games. They have very fast payouts that are usually received in less than 24 hours. Currently they offer two different sign up bonus options. You can receive a 20% bonus up to $100 on your first deposit or a flat first time deposit bonus of $25.
Limit Texas holdem is offered from .50/1 to 100/200 and no limit and pot limit Texas holdem are both offered with buy ins from $25 to $2,000. Every limit has multiple full games available at every hour of the day. The low level games are full of poor players, but as you advance to the higher limits you will find the competition to get better. Up to and including 10/20 though, still has many profitable games available. To profit from the higher games you need to be a top notch player.
Limit Omaha/8 is offered from .50/1 to 20/40 and pot limit Omaha/8 is offered with buy ins from $25 to $2,000. The low level games, particularly the pot lit ones, are filled with poor players who play far too many hands. A patient player can show huge profits at the lower limits, but the swings can be bad as you will receive many bad beats from players chasing every imaginable draw.
Limit Omaha high is available from .50/1 to 15/30 and pot limit Omaha high is spread with buy ins from $25 to $2,000. The high limit tables don't run full all of the time and the middle buy in pot limit games, $600 and $1,000, aren't always full, but the other limits are usually busy.
7 Card Stud is available in limit from .50/1 to 20/40 with full games at every limit.
7 Card Stud high low split, or hi lo, is spread from .50/1 to 10/20 with full games at each limit. There are

very few players, especially at the lower limits, that know how to play 7 Card Stud high low well, so if you are a solid player you will do well.
Party Poker has both high hand tables and bad beat jackpot tables and the bad beat jackpot often climbs to over $500,000. To qualify for the bad beat jackpot, you have to be playing at one of the designated tables and have four-of-a-kind eights or better beaten and both hole cards from both hands must play. An extra fee, which I believe is .50 per hand, is taken at these tables to fund the jackpot. The bad beat tables are available in limit Texas holdem from 2/4 to 15/30.
Sit N Go tournaments are available with buy ins from 5+1 to 200+15. They also run a variation on the sit-n-go tournaments called Party Steps that are a series of tournaments that you start with a small buy in and can win a large prize pool by doing well in the series. There are also two and three table sit-n-go tournaments available with buy ins from 5+1 to 50+5.
Multi table tournaments run around the clock with a new tournament starting roughly every ten minutes. The buy ins range from free, for the freerolls, to over $600 for the million dollar guarantee tournaments.
