Pacific Poker Review

Pacific Poker/888Poker.com are especially well known for their loose and juicy Texas Hold ‘em and for low and medium stake tournaments. Their top quality software has fabulous customizable table views and some really useful notes and stats functions that you can use during the game. Pacific Poker is part of the long-standing and hugely popular 888.com group of sites.

The really stupid thing is that Pacific poker would have probably made more money from me by me playing in hundreds of poker hands than the 75$ stupid dollars that they took from me. Now im going to post my bad experience to every poker forum i can find. So basically pacific poker gets less money from me and bad publicity as well.
