A little more than a year ago, while randomly surfing the web, I came across a website that grabbed my attention. In the midst of the social networking boom, I found a this site... www.pokerspace.com . A website dedicated to bringing poker players from around the world together with a common interest. From tutorials and free roll tournaments for beginners, to more complex tournament styles like deep stack, high roller, and my personal favorite, a team oriented tournament style that required your to work in teams of up to 6 players to have the highest cumulative finish(a style that only really works online).
The thing about pokerspace though, wasn't just the idea of player poker. It is a vast community of players who have strengths and weaknesses, similarities and differences, but all come together, usually in a cordial and respectful manner, and teach and learn from each other.
There are now many poker social networking sites, but none that match the professionalism and vision of pokerspace. I had the privelage of working for a short time as a staff writer for this website, and I got to see first hand how much time and effort was put into making everything from pokerspace sponsored tournaments with amazing prizes, to message boards and personalized profile pages. Steve, Michelle, "The Dude"(Chris) and the rest of the Pokerspace staff really worked very hard to put a top quality site together, and they succeeded.
This is an excellent site for anyone who enjoys playing poker whether online, or in person; professionally, or just as a hobby, pokerspace.com has something to offer.
