Pokerstars.net Review

Pokerstars.net has a wide variety of free poker games and tournaments including No Limit Texas Hold’em, the most popular poker game in the world. Even if all you want to do is play for free, Pokerstars.net has a wide variety of freerolls (free poker tournaments) that allow you to win real money prizes!

Pokerstars.net vs. Pokerstars.com
Since online poker sites aren’t allowed to advertise real money poker in the US and some other countries, they started Pokerstars.net, which allows only play money poker. That’s why all the Pokerstars commercials you see on ESPN advertise Pokerstars.net and not Pokerstars.com.

Players who want to play for real money at Pokerstars need to uninstall the .net net version and set a new account after they download the real money version.

What’s the difference between .net and .com?

Many people wonder what the difference is between Pokerstars.net and Pokerstars.com. They are both the same company/brand. The reason they have two different websites is because of laws regarding advertising real money poker. Pokerstars.net is the same software, without the option to play poker for real money. That means Pokerstars can safely advertised from the United States and other countries with uncertain online poker laws. They use this for branding in hopes that players will try their play money software and want to convert to real money players. Pokerstars.com software allows both fake money poker and real money poker. So, if you think you may want to play for real money someday, I would definitely download the .com version.
