Chan Poker Review
Johnny Chan (One of the
greatest all-time poker players)
has finally launched his own site.
This project has been in the
works for well over a year now,
and has finally completed just a
few weeks ago.
Since this is being backed by
one of the greatest poker
players, I had to see what it
was all about and so I
downloaded their software on August
27th,
2007 and do my own
chan poker review.
They are aggressively trying to
attract new players (being the
newest poker site) and have
decided to offer some great
bonuses (up to $1000). I
went through the process of
downloading the software (even
though I didn't really have to
because they have a no-download
version of their poker
software), and was completed in
under 5 minutes.
One of the things I did not like
about the home page, was the
lack of information. I
understand this is a new site,
and I am sure they will be
continuously adding more
content, but I think much of
this should have been up before
the official launch.
One of the biggest things they
are pushing with this site is
you get to play against Johnny
Chan himself. Sure he will
probably play at many of the
tables, but you will probably
have to wait forever to get a
seat, unless you are lucky
enough to have him sit at your
table. I am sure Johnny
will also be quite visible on
the high stakes tables, which is
a definite plus for all the
railbirds out there. Here
is an example of one of their
ads promoting this:
Chan Poker Software
First, I will give a little
background about the poker
software. The site itself
runs on the Ongame Network,
which is one of the largest
poker networks (home to such
sites as PokerRoom, Betsson,
Hollywood Poker, Eurobet, as
well as many more). Since
it is part of such a large
network, this means that
security is at its highest,
traffic is really good (meaning
you will always find a game) and
a large number of great features.
The software is friendly to many
PC platforms including
Macintosh, for all you Mac Poker
Players out there. Also,
if you hate Windows and
Macintosh and are running a
Linux box, it will even work for
you on that (Trust me, there are
very few Linux friendly poker
sites out there)!
The game area itself offers a
nice clean look, with most of
required features. One
thing that it did not have were
pre-flop %, which some players
like to see.
Here are some screenshots of their
software (the lobby and game play):
If you have ever played at Poker
Room, Hollywood Poker or any of
the other OnGame Network sites,
you will recognize this view
below. One of the obvious
differences is they have a
special Johnny Chan character on
the tables.
Also, there is a no-download
java based version which looks
identical to the full download
version. It runs in your
web browser. Here is a
screenshot:

Review Conclusion of
Chan PokerIn conclusion, here are some of
the advantages vs. disadvantages
of Chan Poker:
Advantages
- No-download Java version -
this is great for people running
Non-Windows Operating Systems
such as Mac or Linux
- Huge sign-up Bonus - Not many
sites give players $1000 just to
sign up!
- Play with Johnny Chan - Chan
plays here, so you will be able
to watch him play, and chat to
him on the rail.
- Fast visually appealing
software - Nice clean looks,
coupled with great speed ensures
a smooth game.
- Attracts novice players
meaning the competition won't be
as difficult as other sites.
Disadvantages
- Difficult to multi-table -
Windows are not re-sizeable.
If you want a great software for
multi-tabling check out
Betfair.
- No additional stats in the
lobby such as pre-flop
percentages, just the basic
info.
