Hollywood Poker 24/7 Hollywood?

I just read a review of this quite popular online poker room Hollywood Poker at onlinepokereport.com. Much like many other Internet card rooms it has its advantages and disadvantages. For instance, the fact that it has a Java client is a huge plus. Up until now, Mac users were crippled in terms of game variety because most of today's poker rooms have only the downloadable version. Now all Mac users from all over the world can play poker as they wish, when they wish.


Another unique feature they have at Hollywood Poker is their generous first Deposit bonus structure. It's attractive both for high-rollers seeking to make big bucks (and not afraid of large investments) and for the average players not willing to put great amount s of money on the line. Another big plus is their Refer-a-Friend bonus. If you happen to recruit ten new players to the poker room, you could make up to $2,000 and that's an offering you don't see every day.


However, Hollywood Poker is said to have disadvantages as well. The most significant downside is that some players complain that the cash out speed is very slow. It apparently takes a lot of time until your cash out request is processed. Personally, since I haven't played there yet, I don't really have an opinion about this supposed disadvantage. I promise to keep you posted on this one...
