U.S POKER :

Pitbull Poker

They claim to be the first all-flash poker room in the world, there's no download needed to play as the poker client simply runs in your browser in flash mode. 

When I played on the site I didn't notice any problem with loading speeds, it was fairly quick. The bonus is that you will never get delays as new versions of the software are updated as the latest version will automatically be getting loaded from Pitbull Poker's servers.

For poker freeroll lovers the news is is that there are freerolls on Pitbull Poker every hour, at the half-hour mark ( 1:30 , 2:30 , 3:30 etc). There are also leagues set up at the site that you can join, or you can also start a private league yourself to play in with your friends.

At the time of writing there is a $10 free money bonus which is added to your account, as well as an "instant match bonus" of 100%.

Players Only Poker

Although this is probably another site which you may not have thought about playing at, it seems to be very popular. The poker games here come in all forms with both sit down games and tournaments being very popular. 

The site has great freerolls leading to qualification to the WSOP and also some great lower value tournamens. A lot of people think these are better than freerolls, the prizes are far more and the competition a lot less and all for a stake of just $1.

Intertops

It accept players from most places, the following are the exceptions: US states - Michigan , Illinois , Louisiana , Oregon , Wisconsin , Washington , Indiana , Nevada , South Dakota , New Jersey . Also the Netherlands .

There are some fantastic offers at the time of writing, 

- 500% bonus for all new customers, up to $10,000.
- $200,000 weekly tournament for only ONE PENNY
- $15,000  WSOP package tournaments for as little as $7.50
- Regular freerolls with three $1000 games running every day

The site has the option of being viewed in several languages, so far there are translations into:Chinese, Japanese, Swedish, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Arabic, Spanish, and Turkish. 

All things considered you would be well advised to at least take a look at what Intertops has on offer, it's a great choice with a bit of everything there for you and a very professional and respected company.

It is a highly respected and long established website and has been on the internet betting scene for more than twelve years.

The good news for US poker players is that you can play on the site, but unfortunately the following countries are excluded from Bet US : Bahamas , St Kitts, Austria , Sweden , Germany , Japan , China and Korea .
