Short Description



Full Description

Hollywood Poker is the home of Vince van Patten and movie hero James Woods, this is the place to play if you want to mingle with the Hollywood stars. It is part of the OnGame network and offers some of the best bonuses around.




Software and Graphics

Hollywood Poker software has some very nice features, being part of OnGame network, the software runs smoothly, it is reliable and looks very good.
The only issue is that the avatars sit on exact same seats at every table.

Hollywood Poker offer 4 games, Texas Hold'em, Omaha, 7 Card Stud, and 5 Card Draw (micro to high limits). They only have Hold'em single table Sit and go's, no Multi-table SNG's.
