Royal Vegas Poker is part of the Prima Poker network, a group of over 30 poker sites. They came on the scene last year and have grown to be one of the 5 biggest poker rooms online. Some of the biggest positives are that they offer some of the best monthly bonuses and free tournaments in poker. Some of the negatives is their customer support. Read below to find out more.

Royal Vegas Poker has one main problem - customer support. Their customer support can be lacking at times and you really need to phone them - emails seem to be hit and miss. If you have a problem you really have to get on them and not let them forget about you. The other major problem is that they have three $1000 tournaments every day and they are free to enter but you must have played at least 50 raked hands in the previous 24 hours to qualify. It has become apparent that they simply are not tracking the number of hands you play properly. Sometimes you play way more than 50 hands and you can't get in and other times you don't play at all and you do get in.

However, Royal Vegas Poker also has some huge positives. They offer a very nice monthly bonus for frequent players - over $20,000 in total - and they offer a very large number of free rolls every day. They have a total of 6 free rolls every day for a total prize pool of over $3,500.

Overall, Royal Vegas Poker is bit of a mixed bag. The tournaments are really nice and the monthly bonuses are great but the customer support can be frustrating at times. It's really up to the individual player to decide what is more important to them and if you're unsure, give them a try for a while and find out.

- a fair number of players on the money
  tables and in the tournaments

    Multi-Table Tournaments

Free Rolls - Royal Vegas Poker has a number of free rolls every day. They have 3 no-strings attached free rolls every day, one for $100, one for $200 and the last for $500. They also have 3 tournaments a day each for $1000 each but you must have played 50 raked hands in the previous 24 hours to qualify. Be warned, as noted above, that they have had a lot of trouble tracking players raked hands and it can be hard to get timely answers via email.

Buy-In Tournaments - They range from $1+0 to $100+10.

Notes - They have a lot of free tournaments as well as a few guaranteed tournaments every day.
