World Poker Exchange Online Poker Site Review

World Poker Exchange offers 75% rake back on cash tables and poker tournament buy ins!

Welcome to my poker blog!wpx.jpg

For anyone who is new to poker and wants to learn the game without risking any of their money, there are play chip tables at almost every online poker site. With each post I’ll offer my view of some of my favorite places to play and why I like them. I’ll also be including a screen shot of one of their tables.

Generally, most sites have a .com extension for their real money sites and a .net extension for their free poker site. Most online poker sites offer many of the same things. There are however, some sites that just seem to be more fun to play on, due to graphics, ease of getting into a game or tournament or options that some other sites just don’t have.

The first poker site I reviewed for this blog is the smallest from the standpoint of the number of players, but that’s also what makes it fun. It’s the World Poker Exchange.

Since there are a small number of players compared to the “big” sites, everyone kind of gets to know every one else because you will see many of the same players at the tournament tables whenever you play.

Freeroll poker tournaments
The site has a very comfortable interface to play on and they offer a $50 freeroll numerous times every day where the top three finishers split $50 without having to put up any entry fee.

75% rake back!
Another really cool and unique thing about the World Poker Exchange is that they offer 75% rake back at their money tables. The rake is collected as usual but 75% of it is returned to your account every Monday! This is true for their poker tournaments as well as their cash games.

The rake in any poker game affects your chances of becoming a profitable poker player, so a site that gives back 75% of it can’t be bad.
