Game Selection :

Purple Lounge offers the usual variety of internet poker games including;Texas Holdem, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, 7 card stud, 5 card stud. One major difference you will find when browsing the Ladbrokes lobby is that Purple lounge actually has quite a bit of action going on in the ‘non Texas Holdem’ style poker games, especially at the Omaha style tables, often more so than at the Texas Holdem tables.
As the most active poker room in all of Europe, American player ban included, Purple lounge boasts some of the highest amounts of traffic available online, especially for a European based internet poker site. Ring table traffic seems to be the highest in middle stakes Texas Holdem games. Purple lounge definitely has plenty of tournaments on offer,of course you will find plenty of WSOP satellites available, freerolls, guaranteed money games.

Quality of Players:

The opposition is of a similar standard to that found at Party Poker especially at the lower limits where numerous weaker players can be found. At higher limits there is mostly short-handed play where as expected the level of competition can be tough.

Graphics:

Admittedly the graphics here are not the best, the site has done wonderfully in other areas and it is certainly time for them to direct their attention to this area of the site. The tables are pretty plain, there are no table avatars, so keeping track of your opponent is a little more difficult, as ever poker table looks like the last. However, if you’re looking for clean, clear plain old poker, without graphic distractions, you’ve found the right place! As far as actual play, internet poker players have three options available for table size, you won’t find this option just anywhere online, whereas many internet poker rooms offer two sizes, three is a rare find.
The buttons for choosing your action in advance are a bit on the small size, and the hand histories are not available within the software, you will need to open these in a regular browser page, this does slow things up a bit, however, on the upside, player notes and player stats are available within Purple Lounge software. The game play is modeled exactly on the rules of live game play. However, on the down side the pre-select buttons are a little small, and hand history is only available by HTML page (although with the detailed game play window it is not really necessary). It is possible to make player notes, and there is also a player stats section.
