There are more than a handful of reasons people from all over the world play at Party Poker. It's because they are the best, the biggest and offers the most variety of games at any given time day or night.

At four o'clock in the afternoon on over 6,000 tables, you will find over 50,000 poker-hungry players logged into the Party Poker website. These players are playing in ring games, signing up for Million Dollar Qualifier Tournaments, satellite games and playing sit-n-go tournaments. Even the best players who play online still keep Party Poker downloaded on their computer.

The reason people refuse to give up Party Poker, no matter what other poker room they find is simple. It's like a teenager who doesn't want to miss the Friday Night Dance, i.e. "everyone's going to be there." Everyone may be logged into this particular poker room, but another reason is because of the choices on offer which are not available elsewhere.

With so many people logged on at once, some games are more beatable than you might imagine. On the weekend there are so many people who do not have any idea how to play poker, or are playing under the influence of alcohol and are playing for "fun" rather than to win.

However, even with the beatable games, you also never know who you may be pulling up a chair beside. For all you know you may be sitting next to Chris Moneymaker.

Party Poker is still alive and kicking even with so many new online poker room alternatives. Go ahead and try any of the new ones out there, then when you are ready to shake up some excitement, head on back to the place where you can party 24 hours a day, the one and only Party Poker!
