Pokerstars is a company website offering only free play games. The pokerstars domain is used primarily in their TV advertisements since there are no real money games available at this website. This avoids any legal issues or censorship of using their pokerstars domain which allows real money games.

The PokerStars software download is safe and easy to use, with quick deposits and fast withdrawals, and the award-winning support team is available round-the-clock in a host of languages.

partypoker was the largest online card room until 2006 when it left the US market due to the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006. PokerStars has since claimed the title.

Make sure you're legally allowed to play\n\n Party Poker is only legal in New Jersey and Pennsylvania at the moment, although it plans to expand to other states soon. You are allowed to register for an account if you live outside these states, but you are not legally allowed to play unless you are within the state borders.
