Full review of Doyles Room
Summary (6.12) World exclusive up to $250 sign-up bonus at 50% deposit match via PokersListings if you use NETeller to make deposit and referral code "PLBONUS" Doyles Room is a fast growing poker room, managed by poker legends Doyle Brunson and Mike Caro. In a special campaign you get Doyles Super/System 2, the long-awaited follow-up to the “poker bible” Super/System. Doyles Room shares its technology and player base with the large Tribeca Table network (Victor Chandler Poker, etc). Doyles Room is one of the very few rooms in the network, which is open for US players. The software has a nice interface and offers good playability. Currently, Holdem and Omaha games are accommodated, but within shortly seven-card stud Hi and Hi-Lo will be added. There are both single- and multi-table tournaments. The tournaments actually have the highest traffic in this poker room, with lots of good value free rolls. Real money player statistics - July 2005: 800-1100 ring game players at peak hours, 2000-2700 tournament players at peak hours.
Software and graphics (6) Doyles Room software is developed by Tribeca Tables, with nice graphics and good functionality. On the positive side, there are features like; buddy list function, private tables, pot- and no-limit ring games, live floor managers, overall nice graphics and multi-table tournaments. However, there are some let downs; lobby information does not include view flop percentage and almost only games in Texas Holdem.
Ring game traffic (5) The Doyles Room network currently has 800-1100 ring game players at peak hours.
Tournament traffic (6) The traffic at the tournaments is better than at ring games, with a solid 2000-2700 players currently at peak hours.
Game variety (3) The game variety at Doyles Room is not so good, with only Holdem and Omaha Hi-Lo and High (all available in both limit, pot-limit and Holdem in no-limit as well). Table stakes are from $0.02/$0.04 to $50/$100. There are both single- and multi-table tournaments. Within shortly seven-card stud High and Hi-Lo will be added.
Rake (5) The rake at Doyles Room is at the average of the industry. On limit tables up to $1/$2 there is a $1 max rake, on all other tables there is a max $3 rake. There is a "no flop - no drop" policy for hands not reaching the flop.
Soft competition (8) The competition is quite soft at Doyles Room, thanks to the clientele from other network partners such as Victor Chandler (online sports book) and Golden Palace (online casino). There are not many high stakes games though, so for players looking to make good hourly net profit, Doyles Rooms is quite OK, but not great.
Sign up bonus (8) World exclusive up to $250 sign-up bonus at 50% deposit match via PokersListings if you use NETeller to make deposit and put in referral code "PLBONUS" during sign-up. For each bonus dollar you need 200 Action Points to cash out. No partical bonus paid out, but unlimited time to meet the Action Point requirment. For $250 bonus 50,000 Action points is needed. (You can still use your Action Points as buy-in to freerolls etc and still these points will be counted as well towards the bonus requirement). Standard promotion is 25% bonus match up to $100 awarded at 10,000 action points, if you do not use NETeller you only get this bonus, even by using our referral code. (With the 25% match you only need 100 Action Points per bonus dollar). So, remember to use NETeller if you have an account to get the 50% deposit match up to $250! Note: DoylesRoom have a generous points system, which allows you to reach your requirements quicker than most other rooms.
Loyalty bonus (6) Yes "action points", which are redeemable for various products. The available points from a raked pot will be distributed to all participating players on a pro-rata (percentage) basis.
Promotions (7) There are very frequent free rolls for action points at Doyles Room, typically 5 to 6 per day with prize pools of $200-$2,500 for about 300 to 15,000 action points.
Support (8) There is live online and telephone support, as well as email support at Doyles Room.
Financial security (9) Should be secure, as the front figure is Doyle Brunson and the site is part of a well-established network. High score.
Deposit & withdrawal options (6) Deposit options; VISA, MasterCard, NETeller and wire transfer. Cash out options; Check, NETeller or bank transfer. |
