PokerWize Review
PokerWize is one of the coolest, most
advanced poker sites that I have probably ever seen. I
have to admit when I first saw the site I thought it was
another 3D Poker site just like PKR Poker. Anyway I
finally decided to download it last night to see what all
the hype was about. When I saw the download was
roughly 350MB (for the full version... there is also a light
version available that is roughly 150MB) I became a little
hesitant, but decided to let it download while I did
something else. It took just over 20 minutes to
download on my DSL connection, so dial-up-users (if you
still exist out there) BEWARE! Once the download
completed and I completed the installation I started the
program up to see something that I had never seen on a poker
site before, video and interactive instructions and poker
training.
First let me give you a little background about PokerWize
for those of you that know nothing about this site.
PokerWize is owned by Playwize PLC an AIM listed company.
Playwize is a UK developer of several popular video games
for consoles such as XBOX, PS2 and Nintendo Gamecube
(including Constantine, Rogue Ops and Die Hard Vendetta).
The Playwize poker client runs on the Microgaming Network
(Formerly Prima Network), which is currently the 15th
largest poker network (averaging over 1000 players)
according to PokerSiteScout. Since they are on the
Microgaming network, they are also licensed by the Kahnawake
Gaming Commission, ensuring your security. Anyway,
back to the review...
PokerWize really caters to all types of players from your
beginner player who has never even played poker before to
advanced players looking to play on the poker tables with
some style. After you watch the instructional videos
(should you choose), its now time to practice your poker
skills. They have practice games where you can get a
feel for the software before making that first deposit as
well as Single Player game, which is like playing a poker
video game. Once you feel your game is up to par and
you are ready to go win some money return to the main lobby
and click Play Online. The first thing you will need
to do is set up your profile, then create your character.
PokerWize allows you to create your own player and customize
everything including hair, facial structure, glasses,
clothing and much more. Here is a screenshot of the
player customization interface:
Now that you have your player ready, its time to hit the
poker tables. I know a lot of you could care less what
your player looks like, so if you aren't interested you can
skip this step and you will get a random player.
The lobby was a little confusing for me at first, but once I
got the hang of it, it wasn't too bad. Here is a
screenshot of one of two different view choices that you
have for the lobby (as you can see there are a variety of
different stats views, but the headings did not display
properly for me which I found kind of annoying):
Once you pick the table you want, it will load in roughly 2
seconds (very fast compared to other 3D Poker Sites).
The tables have a pretty clean look, though the graphics are
probably not as advanced as some other 3D Poker Sites.
This might be a good thing though, because PokerWize
designed this with the poker player in mind. The
window sizes are fully adjustable, and you can run several
tables at once if you like to multi-table. One of the
nicest features of this poker software is it is a
statistical dream. The software shows so many
statistics that it practically plays the game for you.
It even has a built-in-odds calculator to tell you yours and
your opponents odds as the hand plays on! These
calculators usually sell for around $50-$100, but they
include it on the standard installation. Here are some
screenshots of the software:
 
PokerWize has the following games all playable in 3D: Texas
Hold'em, Omaha, Seven Card Stud, and Five Card Stud.
They offer a variety of sit-n-gos, multi-table tournaments
and even have a cool feature where you can play poker ON TV!
The games on these tables are broadcast on SkyTV so your
friends can watch you play poker from the comfort of their
couches.
In Conclusion, if I were to rate PokerWize on a scale of 1
to 10, I think it would get a 7.8. This site has more
functionality than any other poker site out there and the
best statistical tracking that I have ever seen from a poker
site. The tables have quite a bit of action as they
are on an already established network, so finding a game
should not be much of a problem. I like some of the
goodies included and think this is the best poker site out
there for someone who is trying to learn more about the game
or has never played poker before in their life. This
game not only provides the classroom to teach you the game,
but it also has the playground to put your new found skills
to practice. If you are a very basic plain kind of
person, you probably won't enjoy this site. I found at
times for there to be a lot going on that it got even a
little confusing. The graphics are really cool, but
nothing to really blow you out of the water. All in
all I definitely think the site is worth checking out, and I
am glad that I did.
PokerWize accepts the following methods for deposit and
withdrawal:
Neteller, Mastercard, Visa, Diners Club, Switch, Solo,
