Additional Brief Comments:
I don't understand the previous reviewer's comments at all. I have played at PR on and off since about November 2005 and there is tons of fixed-limit traffic (at least up to and including 1/2, but I'm sure at higher limits as well). The competition's reasonably juicy as well, although things do get somewhat rockier at 1/2 and above. It is PT compatible. Bonuses are offered relatively frequently but are pretty unattractive at lower limits.

I deleted my prior post, hawk. Somehow I got my review for Poker Mountain in this thread, by mistake.

PR:

Games/Levels I Play: $3/6 FRLH, $2/4 if no tables at $3/6
Customer Service: 5, I hope to never have to deal with them.
Software: 8
Bonuses- Offering: 7
Bonuses- Earning: 8
Cashout Speed: 7 (48 hours)
Ease of Competition (list game type): 7, varies
Traffic Volume: 7, varies
Favorite/most profitable time of day(s) to play: Daytime, or very late at night

Additional Brief Comments: This network has gone downhill in last few months, imo. Tighter tables and less traffic at my level. I only play when earning bonuses which is pretty often.

Software: 8

Ease of Competition (list game type): 4 - getting very rocky at 0.5/1

Comments: Haven't played there since February but I keep checking the lobby. Play is getting better and better so it's harder to find juicy games. Cashout seems fine.

Games/Levels I Play: .10/.25 nlhe
Customer Service: 7
Software: 7
Bonuses- Offering: 7
Bonuses- Earning: 6
Cashout Speed: 8
Ease of Competition (list game type): 6
Traffic Volume: 5
Favorite/most profitable time of day(s) to play: Late night

Additional Brief Comments: This place is not the best place to play. Tables are all tight, I have yet to find a loose one although there are semi-loose players. Not many tables at all at the lowest nl limit and most of them are filled with sharks to begin with. I see too many people who are multi-tabling(easy to spot cause of lack of tables). CS is ok but they seem to try to get rid of you no matter what your question. Im gonna try to hit my poker tracker bonus here and move on, the deposit bonus is not worth chasing.
