The world of online poker took a very large hit within the last year when the U.S. government passed banking laws that made it impossible for many poker rooms to allow U.S. players to play. U.S. players were left to scramble around to find places that would allow them to play. One of the great online card rooms that sprang up was RiverFlop, based out of Panama.

RiverFlop welcomes U.S. based players (as well as players from every other part of the globe) to play for free or for real money. They have a great, stable downloadable software package that is easy to install. Their user interface is easy and graphically appealing (check out the screen shot to the right). They offer a variety of games for players to play and stakes that match anyone’s bankroll. There site also has an active forum for players to discuss poker and playing at RiverFlop.

For the U.S. player that wants to find action online, they need to check out RiverFlop.

There is one thing more than playing poker that most poker players like — talking about poker. Visit any card room and you hear the constant chatter of bad beats, great hands, and pots they have raked. But where does this kind of talk happen online. This is where the excellent poker forum, Deuce Ace, comes into play.

Deuce Ace is an extremely well done forum with a unique design and catchy format. They offer lively threads on a wide array of poker topics including poker tournaments and poker strategy. And because it is a community, they also have dedicated sections for other gambling and non-gambling topics. Looking through the threads I found people talking about cars, travel, and the best way to play rolled-up aces in a no-limit game. Another great resource of Deuce Ace is its poker directory. You can find links to tons of other online casinos and resources in the directory.

Deuce Ace is a major resource for any poker player and should be bookmarked. Join their community and see how great it is to talk about the game we love and make a few new online friends.
