Party Poker has been and still is among the biggest and most prominent online poker rooms in the world. That guarantees you that you will find a lot of players online at any given time of the day (or night) and you will never have a problem finding a table that suits your personal preference.
If you like playing at low to medium limit tables you will certainly find your share of fishes to gut - but be careful that this doesn't backfire on you with some Bad Beats due to someone overplaying his cards but being lucky on the River. The high limit tables sport a lot of more experienced players and if you think you are up to the challenge you will find some great competition here.
A lot of players list Party Poker among their favourites due to the sheer amount of players and no noticeable shortage of opponents at any time, and with a welcome bonus of 100% up to $500 you will have a fine excuse to give them a try.

Party Poker Features
Party Poker is a feature rich poker room. You can rest assured that they are always keeping up with the latest trends in the poker industry. In fact many times, Party Poker is the first to introduce a new sort of feature in its poker client. An example? Sure, what about the Stacking Console for cash game players. It's a nifty feature that helps you when playing multiple tables at once.
The lobby is really easy to navigate. When looking for a table, you can make use of the Quick Seat option, or the various filters to narrow down the results. Regular players at Party Poker will find it handy to be able to bookmark their favourite games - just as you should bookmark Max Poker Bonus, your favourite poker source in your browser ;)
One of Party Poker's other special features is the option to make a deal with the remaining players in a real money tournament. Instead of having to potentially grind it out for hours you can simply agree on dividing the prize money among the remaining players either based on their current ranking on the final table or with customised pay outs - in any case the chip leader will be able to make the proposition and everyone has to agree on the deal for it to go through.
You can download the Party Poker client for PC as well as for Mac - or you may choose to play it right in your browser. That makes it very easy for you to play wherever and whenever you want to. You can re-size the windows to your personal liking which helps tremendously when playing on several tables simultaneously.
