Summary

Hollywood Poker is the site that brings the glitz and glam to the OnGame Network. Hollywoodpoker has been around since the early days of Online Poker, and has been endorsed by numerous Hollywood celebrities. Out of the bevy of celebrities, Vince Van Patten and James Woods are the main two icons for Hollywood Poker. The promotions and bonuses on Hollywood Poker are nothing short of fantastic, making it a must try for all levels of players.

Cash Games

Cash games are available in all the typical ways: Holdem, Stud, Stud Hi-Lo, Omaha and Omaha Hi/Lo, and are played in Limit, No-Limit and Pot-Limit betting structures. The limits on Hollywood Poker range from the micros all the way up to $500-$1000. Hollywood Poker permits the creation of 'private tables' so you can play any limit you want.

Sit and Gos

There are the usual types of SnGs on Hollywoodpoker. They run all the time, but obviously are more intense during peak hours. The buy-ins range from micro to pretty big, and are available in different degrees of entrants.

Showcase Tournaments

There is a weekly 'HollywoodPoker Celebrity Classic" tournament that costs only $22 to enter. You get bounty money for knocking out the celebrities that are also playing in it, and the more you knock out the more money you win.

There is also a 'Michael Woods Celebrity Invitational' which has a small $11 buy-in, which also has a bounty system in place for knocking out the celebrities.

There are also some much bigger buy-ins, such as the Grand Tournament, which is the $1040 buy-in on the OnGame Network at the end of every month. There is also $320 'Big Deal' tourney with a $150k guaranteed prize pool every Sunday.

Interface User/Friendliness

The interface and overall feel of Hollywood Poker is very friendly to use. The lobby is organized efficiently, and is divided into three sections for tournaments, cash games, and SnGs. The games are micro-managed by the typical filter tab system, so it is easy to find what you want. The tables look sleek, with big avatars and easy to read cards. Overall the interface is very slick, and there is a built in statistics program that is very useful. The speed of the games is fast, and the tables provide all the standard game-play features.

There are plenty of other great features. You can create your own tournament or ring game tables and play however you want with whoever you want. There is a 'Green Room' which is a room dedicated to the Hollywood poker community. The site also features a poker school for new players. Players can also be voted off of tables if they are being a pain to the rest of the table.

Level of Play

Hollywoodpoker attracts mainly new players to its tables by using its Hollywood allure. This is obviously a fish fest, and money gets pushed around at this site. Because it is on a bigger network however does attract some sharks. Overall the level is about average, with the lower level games being the juiciest. These seem to be filled with people who watch a lot of poker on T.V., and mainly celebrity poker at that! If you can play consistent solid poker, and manage your bankroll well, then you can definitely profit on Hollywood Poker.

Traffic

Hollywood Poker has become very popular recently. James Woods and Vince van Patten lend their names to the poker room and can often be found playing on the Hollywoodpoker tables. Player growth seems to be on a steady upward curve at Hollywood Poker. All tables are busy with players during peak times and more popular tables are a hive of activity around the clock.

Support Cashier

Online poker requires a fast and friendly customer service to cater for those little niggles and enquiries that crop up from time to time. Hollywood Poker has one of the best customer service teams around with fast email responses backed up by a detailed FAQ area.

The cashier is easy to use, and handles all transactions with ease.
