I had played on Pokerist - it's great. Do anybody knew that there are a messenger, chat rooms, invites, animated emojis, and gifts? Plus other popular elements exist - daily bonuses, quests, etc. All these help with player retentions.
Great features! You can take a glass of wine (or whiskey) and relax at home by playing and chatting with real people as counterparties. Then Karmen Elektra (she is displayed in Kamagames web) bring one more glass.
