DoylesRoom Review

Doyle Brunson is one of the biggest names in poker and opened his own online poker room in 2004.

Since then DoylesRoom has changed networks a number of times; early in 2011 it moved to the Yatahay network, one that continues to accept US players.

DoylesRoom offer a variety of Hold'em, Omaha and Stud games in the usual betting limits and formats. In addition they host 3Card Poker and 32Card Draw Poker. Cash tables attract reasonable numbers, but tournament figures remain relatively low.

Before DoylesRoom joined the Yatahay network, peak time network traffic barely saw 100 real money cash table players connected per hour; following the move, that number increased to 400 cash table players at peak times.

From the lobby

The contemporary lobby design is well thought out with simple navigation to quickly get you seated at your familiar ring game. When clicking the 'Tournament' tab a separate lobby opens giving a fuller view of what's on offer.

Tournaments

Player numbers for their scheduled tournaments are still a little on the low side, but this can have the positive effect that you will quickly learn how others play by meeting them on regular occasions and the events will not take too long to complete. The take-up for sit and go tournaments is picking up and will continue to grow with the site.

Ring games

During peak times there are enough low/medium stake players at the Texas Hold'em cash games to give players a choice of tables. Off peak is much quieter; Omaha and Stud players will have to pick their moments.

At the table

The new software is top class; stylish, stable and glitch free. Resizable tables, with a choice of themes, have clearly marked action buttons for when the chips go into the pot and a very good hand replay screen tells a tale if they come out in the wrong direction.

Bonuses

First time depositors are offered a 100% bonus paid out in increments of $10 for every 100 qualified raked hands played within 40 days of their first deposit.
