Poker Social Network Opens

We mentioned Poker Nations a few weeks ago here - Poker Nations social network when it was in its Beta phase and open to industry members only, well now the site has officially opened to poker players as well and looks like it’s going to be a winner with its unique range of Web 2.0 functions making it the poker social network of choice!  So why all the excitement?  Well, let us take a little look at the features of the new site and what it can offer poker players and general gamblers.

The Poker Nations site serves a range of Web 2.0 type functions that members can use and the levels of involvement are second to none, whether you like forums, poker blogs or just making friends this site throws up something for everyone.

What’s on offer for players that can’t be easily found in other poker social network sites?  Good question!

Open a free account at this new poker site and you can instantly mix with poker professionals as well as other regular players.  The site is packed with ways to talk about poker strategies, exchange ideas, enjoy general poker discussions or interact with other forms of gambling members. 

The site hasn’t been around long and its membership base is only starting to build but there seems to be plenty of serious and fun discussions going on in the poker forum and there’s a real community spirited feel to it.  I really like the Nations part of Poker Nations where each member has their country of residence posted as a flag in their profile.  It adds to the social dimension as players can take part in team challenges on a country level.  The idea of representing your country makes for a patriotic feel to the site and allows a greater chance for friendships (which is ultimately what social networking is all about.)

If you are in a pub league or other organised group, you can set up a poker group page where you can arrange meetings, either online or off and communicate with your own members about topics of interest to you or advertise events and meet-ups.

Another great feature of the site is the ability to earn virtual poker chips.  The more you use the site, the more chips you earn and these can then be redeemed for merchandise, rewards or entries into organised poker tournaments run by Poker Nations.  The first major prize to be won through the site is the inaugural “PokerNations Vegas Experience” package where you could end up playing in a WSOP event with professional poker coaching for free – just for using this poker social networking site!

Already there is a number of poker professionals using the site and most of these are available to ask questions, comment on your play or help out if your poker isn’t quite up to scratch – a great way for amateurs and beginners to quickly improve their poker playing skills. 

To take part in this new and exciting poker social network, just visit Poker Nations and register for free as a member and enjoy using the premier gambling social network online!
