PokerChamps.com

           Gus Hanson's PokerChamps.com is a relatively new site on the
    scene, ready and willing to take on the online poker world. And why
    not? After all, Gus Hanson is a tremendous tournament player and 3-
    time World Poker Tour champion. Unfortunately, PokerChamps does
    not follow in his footsteps...

           Once you launch the PokerChamps software (and every time
    after that), you are given 7 seconds to choose a visual format. This
    was extremely confusing to me, and I had to relaunch the software
    around 10 times before understanding how it worked. Basically you
    have the choice of 1-screen, 2-screens, 4-screens, a resizable
    screen, and if your monitor allows, a 6-screen. Each screen is
    basically another invocation of the lobby, where you can then go see
    the tournaments section, the ring section, play games, etc. Thus, you
    can multi-table only a maximum of 4-tables at once unless you have
    a massive monitor. Also, you cannot easily go back to the lobby or
    check out the tournaments, sit-and-go's, etc. since you are only
    allocated the space given. Also, if you decide you want to switch the
    window format you're in, you have to exit, and launch the software
    again. PokerChamps tried being unique in this regard, but failed
    miserably.

           The interface of the software differs a lot from the trend the
    majority of sites use. Again, PokerChamps gambled in being
    different, but failed; their buttons are very small and strange-looking,
    menu's and options are in strange locations and with obscure
    graphics.

           The cashier is not done through the software, but from their
    website - thus to simply check how much money you have, you have
    to click on the cashier button in the software, which then launches
    their website. You then need to click on another link, which will then
    launch a pop-up window which is the cashier area. To top it all off,
    you then need to log-in with your username and password again! All
    this to go to the cashier.

           The population of the site is very small. The vast majority of
    players were playing either the 'fun-money' tables, or the penny
    tables in real money (.25/.50 NL and down). I had to wait a while just
    for somebody to join my $1/2 NL table...

           On the upside, PokerChamps does have a lot of freerolls
    available to players - I believe they were running almost hourly from
    what I could see. The site also has a friends list, where you can add
    friends, and it will show when they are online, and where they are
    playing.

           Overall, I do not recommend depositing at PokerChamps. I give
    them props for trying to be unique, but unfortunately th
