Last time I talked about Everest Poker, which is on the list as one of the best online poker rooms for those new to poker. Today I plan to continue reviewing the site by moving on to its software.
As I explained a couple weeks ago, the biggest weakness of an Everest Poker download is the large amount of computer resources needed when playing tables on the site. Before you start thinking that the software is useless, though, let me mention some of the positives.
Most people expect seamless navigation on top Texas Hold'em sites, and no one will be disappointed with the menus on Everest. They allow you to either search through the poker room via their tabbed menu system, or there is a way to customize the menus to show only the stakes of your choice. At least one of these options should be more than enough to suit your needs.
One of the best things about having access to download free poker is the option to play more than one table at a time. With regards to table sizing, you can stretch and expand Everest Poker's tables however you'd like, but they also give you a feature that not many sites offer: you can choose to size the tables to four different resolutions. You can choose from 640x480, 800x600, 1024x728, and 1280x960. When you consider resizable tables and resolution choices, you have to admit that Everest has jumped ahead of other money poker sites in this aspect.
In the end, though, the memory problem is still a big one. To come even close to a Full Tilt Poker download, they at least need to provide the option of reducing graphics at the tables. There is an option to remove the chip and card animations, but it is not a lot of help.
If you want to wait for Everest to fix their software prior to playing on their network, there are plenty of other sites to choose from. If you are interested in having lots of tables to choose from, you can always play at PokerStars. Se parte del sitio más grande de póquer en línea, descarga PokerStars.
