The software downloads quickly and doesn’t contain all the fancy 3D graphics and avatars you may find at some other sites, but Pokerstars focus is on players who know and love the game- not somebody looking to play a hand or two for a laugh.   Only Pokerstars give you an opportunity to win a million dollars every single Sunday for a mere $215 buy-in. This type of high-stakes tournament has made Pokerstars stand out head and shoulders above the competition as the online poker industry has matured over the past few years. Pokerstars has gained a reputation that certainly precedes it - a place where the competition is stiff, but the pay-offs can be massive.

COMPANY INFO

During its initial rollout in 2001, Pokerstars was based in Costa Rican and run by a company called Rational Enterprises. Shortly thereafter, the organization moved to the Isle of Man and is now regulated by the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission. Current estimates place the approximate worth of the company in the neighbourhood of $2 billion (US), which renders it one of the world’s largest wagering companies that exists in private hands. Pokerstars quickly rose to prominence with the emergence of Chris Moneymaker- one of the first true amateur players to win the World Series of Poker. In fact, Moneymaker qualified for the tournament by winning a seat through a satellite on Pokerstars. The following year, the coveted bracelet was won by another Pokerstars player Greg “Fossilman” Raymer. These high-profile tournament winners helped Pokerstars solidify itself as the site where the top players play.
