Lucky Lester here to talk about something other than football for a change. I don’t know about you guys but during the off season I often find myself looking for
other things to fill in the hours. Yes, there is hockey, basketball and baseball but aside from hockey, I find the other two about as exciting as watching golf or millionaires driving fancy cars in circles!
This off season from football I thought I would check out the
popular world of poker. As someone who can’t travel to Las Vegas very often I thought I would give the online version a try but how does one figure out which
online poker room to try?
After last fall’s changes to the laws regarding banks allowing funding from their businesses to online gambling establishments it has become a little easier to make a choice. You see a lot of established online gambling sites, especially the publicly traded ones, decided to close down their sites to
American players. Shame that, as the public companies seemed to be a little more reliable in terms of payouts and customer services.
For some of the reliable,
dependable gambling sites it was more of a case where the established poker platform providers pulled their services leaving the sites and their membership without poker software to play on. Well after a few months the dust has settled once again and sites like
http://www.belmont.com/ that lost their 2 separate poker platforms were back with new poker rooms.
The best part about
Belmont Poker is that they will continue to
take American players. I tried their software and having liked it I went a little further and tried to make a deposit off of my credit card and I had no problems whatsoever.
For me, aside from trying out the software I wanted to see how hard it would be to try and win a seat at the
2007 WSOP. While I was looking around I also noticed that they had another
great promotion going on that promises to
send the winner up into space - that’s right… a trip into outer space! Ya – I think I’ll be registering for that promotion.
For those of you who are looking for a new place to
play poker online I would suggest checking out the
Belmont Poker Room – you never know you may find the experience to be out of this world!
