Best Poker Sites: Count Pala In

New Jersey’s online poker scene is packed with some pretty big names (WSOP.com, PartyPoker, PokerStars). They do a great job with big tournament events and keeping the online poker scene alive as we wait for more states (Pennsylvania anyone?) to start player-sharing.

But for poker fans who like a more intimate setting—and yes, online play can be intimate—there’s a great alternative: PalaPoker.com.

The Pala sites, which originate in California with the Pala Band of Mission Indians, also include PalaCasino.com and PalaBingo.com.

Great Bonuses to Get You Started
PalaPoker.com offers a great welcome offer. You’ll get $25 in welcome bonuses just for signing up. First, you get $10 in Poker Bonuses. $10 in poker tournament dollars can be used to enter Multi-Table or Sit & Go tournaments. PalaPoker.com also offers a first deposit match up to $500.

Cash games begin daily at 5 p.m. with tournament play at 6 p.m. Pala’s daily schedule includes two $50 freerolls starting at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m.

Check out this lineup of games:

  • Tournaments: A multi-table tournament (MTT) consists of many tables, lots of players and a prize pool that usually varies with the number of players.
  • Sit & Go Tournaments: Sit & Go’s are played on a single poker table or a fixed number of tables. When the needed number of players are seated, the poker tournament begins.
  • Cash Games: Play cash games for real money. Play as long or as little as you like at various buy-in levels.

But Wait, There’s More!

By joining PalaPoker.com, you automatically join PalaBingo.com and PalaCasino.com. You’ll receive $15 in Casino Bonuses at PalaCasino.com, as well as a free daily spin on Pala’s $1 million bonus slot. The million doesn’t hit too often, but gives out lots of free lesser bonuses.
