Jet Set Online Poker Room

Jet Set Poker is a new site that opened late last year. They cater to tournament players and have developed a strong following of players. Earlier this year Mike Caro joined as well and there has been a steady growth in players. They seem to be very well ran and they treat players well and adding Mike Caro has only further cemented them as one of the new poker rooms that is here to stay.

If a new player asked what site to start at to learn to play I'd tell them to start here. Jet Set Poker is one of the more friendly poker rooms around. There is a lot of talk at the tables and it is mainly good natured. Most of their players seem pretty new to the game for the most part but they are improving as the poker room grows. They also offer a lot of low limit buy-in tournaments which are ideal for new players.

They are a very solid tournament site with a good number of players and top quality tournament software. One of the most unique things they have is "head hunter" tournaments. Every player in the tournament has a bounty and every time you take someone out of the tournament, you get the bounty of their head. They also have a good selection of Holdem, Omaha and 7 Card Stud tournaments. The only draw back is that the tournaments tend to be low so if you want to play big money tournaments it may not be for you.

Welcome Bonus - 20% up to $120 in bonus money.
Wager Requirement - You need to earn 5 points per bonus dollar. See their website for complete details.
