Hollywood Poker review

Software – graphics and functionality

Hollywood Poker has good and functional software. The design made by Hollywood Poker is very esthetic and pleasing. The information in the lobby is comprehensive and gives the player useful stats like: hands per hour and percentage of players seeing the flop. Another good thing about Hollywood Pokers software is that there is a “no download” version that can be used by not only by windows users but also by Mac and Linux users.

Ring game and tournament traffic

Due to good marketing and being part of the OnGame network Hollywood Poker has 4000 – 5000 cash game players at peak hours. Their tournaments are quite interesting with many celebrities participating and with special bounties on them.

Game variety and competition

The game variety is good and Hollywood Poker features all the usual games such as Texas Hold’em, Omaha and 7-Card Stud but they also have 5-Card Draw which is quite unusual to find at online poker rooms. The games can be played as low as $0.25-$0.50 or as high as $300-$600! But of course, most of the games are played in the lower limits. But at the higher levels no-limit is played quite often, therefore Hollywood Poker truly deserves a spot in my “My favorite No-Limit Hold'em Poker Rooms:” list. The site also offers high stakes no-limit Omaha, if that’s to your liking. The competition is quite soft both in high and low stakes and the flop are often seen by as many as 50% in the low stakes section.

Rakes and tournament fees

Rake at Hollywood Poker is quite OK with a maximum of $3 per pot, but is lower on shorthanded tables. There is also a “no flop - no rake” policy. Tournament fees are the usual ones, for instance, the fee for a $10 tournament is $1.

Loyalty bonus and promotions

Hollywood Poker has a loyalty system where the players are awarded “points” when they play in real money games. The points can then be used in special freerolls or to get merchandise or other special offers. The promotions at Hollywood Poker are top notch with several good deposit bonuses. On top of this loyal players are also offered re-load bonuses.

Support and financial security

The support at Hollywood Poker is very good and can be reached by email and phone 24/7. The response to emails is quick and the answers accurate. Hollywood Pokers financial situation seems to be just fine.
