Absolute Poker
Absolute is one of the up and coming poker rooms online. They try to offer different features and rewards for their players, not so much to be different, but because they truly want to show their players they are paying attention to them. One thing that is obvious is that they offer more bonus money than most poker rooms. The initial sign up bonus is not the seemingly standard 20% of your first deposit, but 35% of the first deposit. That's nearly double the rest of the industry.
There is no limit to the amount of free tables playing at Absolute, so you'll never be frozen out of a chance to play for fun. And, Absolute also rewards their top free table players with a spot in their Hall of Fame on the poker room's website, as well $50 in their player account.
The poker room regularly holds satellite tournaments where the winners are sent to major land-based poker tournaments, like the World Series of Poker. So, if you're looking for a chance to get into one of the major televised poker events by starting online for a low buy-in, Absolute is a room worth looking into.
While Absolute does not have the amount of players that say, Party Poker has, they do have a personal touch to them. They were one of the businesses that stepped up in the disaster relief efforts to help those affected by the tsunamis. It's this kind of small business, personal approach that keeps many of their players so loyal.
They also have a "room pro", currently Mark Seif. Mark earns his keep by fielding question in the Absolute Poker newsletter, and also playing in "bounty" tournaments and the AP Heads Up Challenge series.
