The new section is going to be tailored specifically to online poker enthusiasts, whether they be online poker neophytes, experienced players, or those simply interested in the industry. Readers will have access to player rankings, poker room reviews (by both Card Player staff and fellow users), online-specific strategy articles and poker news, exclusive multimedia content, and tournament listings.
Here's what to look for in the new online poker section of CardPlayer.com:
- Online Player of the Year - Similar to the traditional Card Player Player of the Year race, the Card Player Online Player of the Year (OPOY) pits Internet players against each other to finish deep in the biggest tournaments on the biggest poker sites and earn points toward their leader-board standings.
- Online player results and profiles - Individual player profiles and results from the biggest names in Internet poker to the relative unknowns.
- Tournament results - An easily sortable and filterable listing of results from online poker's biggest tournaments.
- Online poker room reviews - Detailed and objective room reviews are available on the major poker sites, with new rooms being reviewed on a regular basis.
- User ratings - For those who want to know what thousands of their fellow players think of a particular site and all of its individual features - or want to make their own thoughts known - the new section offers user ratings. Ten different aspects of each site are available to rate and view, and these ratings are combined to calculate an average score for every poker room.
- Strategy and getting-started articles - Whether you're here to get started in online poker or to hone your skills, the new section will offer free guides and columns from top online players to suit your needs. New articles will be available on a regular basis.
- Tournament listings - Rather than opening up each individual poker site's software clients and browsing their tournament listings on a one-by-one basis, users can visit the new online poker section and view them all at once, filter the listings any way they see it, and dive right in.
