The online poker market
The online poker market has grown tremendously over the last years and there are more than a hundred poker rooms available for the players. The truth is that there are several big networks that cover most poker rooms. The networks are built up with a platform used by many poker rooms, the platform is a software that all rooms use. The looks and graphics vary some but they share the same player base. There are approximately 25-30 networks, some huge with hundreds of thousands of players and more than a dozen rooms and some smaller with many or few sites with small player bases. There are of course independent sites like Pokerstars.com, Ultimatebet.com and PacificPoker.com with large player bases as well. But most sites belong to a network. The largest networks are the Party Poker network and the Prima Poker network.
Most sites and networks work the same with the differences being in the flow of the game, the graphics, competence of the employees (support standard), bonuses and promotions, game variety, betting limits, quality of the players etc.
