    For those of you that have shown an interest in PKR just to let you know that you can now download PKR direct from www.pkr.com So far feedback has been great with Poker Player magazine calling it “The future of online pokerâ€, and Bluff magazine saying “it may actually be the most exciting thing that’s happened in the internet poker worldâ€. Any further feedback much appreciated. Thanks, Andy (PKR)

    Re: PKR Beta testing Sorry rednutt - looks like the email isn't being sent out until Monday (beyond my control). I've added Tax_Monkey and JadedJ to that list too.

    PKR Beta testing

    Re: PKR Beta testing We are in beta stage so not expecting everthing to be perfect yet but we've been really encouraged by the general feedback. In response to some of your questions: The initial download. I forgot to check the exact size but it took me over 15 minutes at full speed (~200k/s) on a 2MB line. That's a large download for those users on 56k modems (and that's still a large percentage)During Beta users have to download the full client . Once launched properly, users will have a much smaller initial download to get them playing. This will be under a quarter the current file size and the rest will be downloaded in the background while you play. We can send out cd's at launch to those with 56k modems. Memory requirements. Was running at over 300MB of ram on my PC (I have 1GB DDR). Again, most home users have 256/512MB so it will struggle on there.We’re optimizing this through Beta. The game is targeted at PC’s with 256Mb or more. CPU Usage - constantly running at around 40-60% percentage usage (2.4 GHz P4 on my PC). Not great and you certainly couldn't multitable on this site! Again, we’re working optimizations for CPU usage, but even so that doesn’t affect multitabling in any way. The graphics felt very stuttery when I played. There was about 6/7 on the table with half of them doing chip tricks etc. Felt like it was running at a framerate of about 5fps, not easy on the eyes at all! yes, we know and there are slight problems and again we are working on improvements as I type. I ran the site on a laptop and tbh it was very slow and jerky.The site is in beta test and we are in the process of improving the the speed issues that you mentioned. As with any site you see for play money the raked hands are significantly slower as so many more players are involved in each pot. That said there have been hand rates at +75 per hr in shorthanded games and +120 in heads up.

    All feedback is useful so let me know how you are getting on Cheers, Andy.

    Re: PKR Beta testing Hi rednutt, you actually are down for advanced registration rather than for beta testing. I will make some changes and add you to the next list of people invited to beta test tomorrow. Hope you enjoy, Andy

    Coming Soon: Pkr 3d Poker

    Re: Coming Soon: Pkr 3d Poker Thought I'd give a quick update for those of you who showed an interest in PKR a while back. We've been doing internal Beta testing for the past few weeks and things are looking great. The Beta testing will open up to the public in the next couple of weeks so not long to go now. Some other news that we're pretty excited about are that Phil Laak and Jennifer Tilly have signed up with us this week and will be representing us at tournaments around the globe and you'll also be able to play them online at PKR. Exciting times ahead All the best, Andy.

    Re: Coming Soon: Pkr 3d Poker I've been trying to PM some people on this list to try and find out why they've not been receiving any updates from PKR and I get the following error message. I am logged in and slightly confused. Anyone know why this is ?? Thanks, Andy $bbuserinfo[username], You do not have permission to access this page.
