It’s your site, so get involved.

The new PKR.com website offers more chances to get involved and have your say than ever before.

One of the things we love most about the new PKR.com website is the number of ways it allows our community to get involved and to have their say.

First up – and most obviously – there are the PKR forums which allow any registered user to read and post to their hearts content. Whether you want to make friends, talk strategy or discuss any aspect of your PKR experience it’s the perfect place to do it. It’s at the heart of the PKR community and is one of the most active poker forums anywhere on the web so is definitely worth checking out.

Our new website also features a comments section at the end of all strategy and community articles, so you can you have a say about each and every article that we publish. We’re hoping that this will allow players to start debates around specific issues, helping both posters and readers to get the most out of the content on offer.

But the opportunity to get involved doesn’t stop there – our new website is all about you, so the more the community collectively put in, the more we think you’ll all get out.

We’ll be adding community content on a daily basis, so if there’s something you want to see covered, let us know. And if you’d like to go one further, over the coming months we’ll be looking to build a network of contributors drawn from within the PKR community itself.

Strategy content

Our aim is to make our new Raise Your Game section the web’s largest repository of poker content to be found anywhere online. Our team of writers and Team PKR Pro’s will be regularly providing top quality strategy content, and we’d love to supplement this with strategy content from our community.

Strategy articles don’t necessarily need to be on any topic, and could simply be you talking through a particular hand of interest explaining what you did at each stage and why. Similarly, if you want to “do a Hansen” and run through a tournament win explaining each hand then we’d love to hear from you too!

Community content

The PKR Community section is dedicated to all things PKR and the people who play with us. If you’d like to get involved, how about writing articles along the following lines;

  • Community news such as births and marriages etc.
     
  • Coverage of PKR community meet ups
     
  • Your poker experiences from land-based poker tournaments
     
  • PKR around the world – prizes for the best photos of people wearing PKR gear outside of famous landmarks!
     
  • Photos of you and any of your poker heroes
     
  • Updates on your participation in any poker challenges, prop bets etc
     

Guidelines for contributors

To get published, please follow the guidelines below;

  • All articles must be submitted to getinvolved@pkr.com
     
  • All content must be in English
     
  • Each article should be between 300 and 600 words in length
     
  • Images are allowed (up to a maximum of three). They should be supplied as gifs or jpegs
     
  • Work must be your own and copyright must be assigned to PKR
     
  • Players whose work will be featured on the site will be contacted prior to publication

i really think just because we are not real money players that we are stuck with the left over clothes of the 60's.. plus i liked it better when we could tell who had who on ther tag/friends list.. hate knowing if im being watched by perverts..

Comment by KingPoker37 - 21/06/09 (Report)

U.S.A should be able to play for money.

Comment by fluffy0fluffy - 21/06/09 (Report)

Yes a very nice site but so frustrating. When moved to a new table it is not fair to be put on the big blind. I had 20000 chips in a game, moved to big blind of 2,000 chips played one hand then moved to another table to big blind again, played one hand then moved AGAIN to big blind. This is not right!!!! Please sort your software out!

I love the new layout. you guys definitely made it great! I think this is the best poker site/room in the world! as a little suggestion, i think you could add some more emotes. i'm sure all the other players would like that, because they are the funniest part of the game.

All The Best,
Vanessa

U Must be joking has any real person actually posted the comments on here. forget the new updates this site still favors massively the beginner great site for the reckless and stupid. Has anyone else noted the amount of time you will lose to the player that is low on chips in the most extraordinary way or is this just me? No didn't think so

I seem to get to the table, play a hand and then it freezes on me. Sorry, but do not like the new rankings section.

Comment by clinty19 - 18/06/09 (Report)

invoelved ay , id rather get involved...........

Comment by tonyfarrar - 18/06/09 (Report)

I think the ranking section is one of the few things that got worse, hopefully it will return to the former set up.
But don't get me wrong, still love the new update. The friend section is the best ever

Just keep up the good work guys,and let´s go for number one online poker site.

Comment by galiere - 17/06/09 (Report)

New shop looks good loads of variety, shame everything is so expensive, Ive been with pkr for 10 months and have 130k points, that means it will be 32 years befoe I can afford that Vaio Laptop, I actually get better rewarded by my affiliate rakeback and should save up via that means, tempted to even do it with another site that has a better loyalty scheme. Athough great effort guys, what do you think about MTT's for some of the shop items, would love to play in a comp for a 40" TV, or a laptop, I know I wont p*ss that away in a cash game lol.

Where do I find Aussie Rankings ??

Comment by HAWK4500 - 17/06/09 (Report)

Very impressive - superb. One technical point - in the portal the "My Real Money" but doesn't show any change in the bankroll, win or lose. It sticks at the same figure as when logging on.

Comment by LadySevern - 17/06/09 (Report)

a few notes:
language -> "Hollands" is not the correct language, it should be "Nederlands"
-> The dutch language doesn't show all menu items

Comment by GVincredible - 17/06/09 (Report)

Looks good. I only miss the country ranking and the fact that i could see myself in the rankinglist.

Comment by jendeman - 17/06/09 (Report)

very impressive makeover ;-)

Comment by GVincredible - 17/06/09 (Report)

Well Done Folks. Very Good So Far
