Poker Stars constantly holds the most players even among other well established poker rooms such as Party Poker or Full Tilt Poker. It also ranks constantly as one of the top poker rooms by other poker reviews authorities.

If you want to earn your bragging rights of beating a pro poker player, Poker Stars is definitely the place. It features the most professional poker players of any other online poker rooms on earth. If you play long enough, it is very common to see famous poker names on the high stakes room. But if you are playing to win, we wouldn't recommend playing here as the soft competition is quite high as a result of pro players presence.

PokerStars uses the Frequent Player Points (FPP) system for its promotions. These points are awarded every time the rake reaches a certain point in real money games. Most of the points come from playing in tournaments. FPP can be used to enter other tournaments in place of cash, enter special weekly and monthly tournaments, or to buy items from the FPP store which you can buy merchandise such as clothes, poker books, and a poker chip set.

Poker Stars is one of the WSOP satellites.
