The 3rd Best Room For H.O.R.S.E Poker
Absolute Poker offers the third best HORSE poker action you will find online. They do not have nearly as much traffic as you will find on Stars and Tilt but they usually have around 10-20 active tables with a wide range of stakes. The only other mixed poker game offered by Absolute is HOSE which does not receive much traffic. Absolute Poker offers a 150% first time deposit bonus up to $500. All you have to do to claim this bonus is enter the referral code BIG500 when you are signing up. Absolute Poker accepts U.S. players and offers one of the best VIP programs in the industry.
The HORSE poker tournament action at Pokerstars and Fulltilt are also solid with PokerStars holding a slight edge with better than average participation in their HORSE events. The prime to play mixed game tournaments is during the PokerStars WCOOP or the Full Tilt FTOPS events, which normally attract large crowds of online players for the mixed events.
The software driving all three sites is very smooth and since they have all been around for several years each, there are virtually never any bugs or hang-ups that interrupt game play. A tip when playing mixed games is to use the four-color deck option that both sites offer as there are so many possibilities for made hands during games like Omaha.
There are a few other sites that offer these mixed games but it’s a much smaller scale and the players there typically stick to the standard Hold’em games. For these reasons, we strongly suggest sticking with one of the leaders in this space to ensure consistent action. Check out our Absolute Poker review for more info.
