In the respective poker games top poker rooms lists we have focused mainly on volume factors, such as the number of real money players. However, when choosing your poker room there are a lot of other factors that should be considered, such as:
Stake Limits: If you are looking for higher stakes poker games (i.e. fixed limit $10/$20 or no-limit $2/$4 and more) only few rooms have decent traffic, particularly during slow hours.

Pot/No-Limit & Short Handed: Some of the leading poker rooms have a weaker pot-limit and no-limit game offering, as well as fewer or no short-handed poker games (e.g. 5-6 player tables).

Tournaments vs. Ring Games: There are big differences between poker rooms in tournament selection, in particular when the focus is on single tables (like sit-and-go) instead of on scheduled multitable events.
