GamesGrid com Overview
GamesGrid poker opened their doors in 2005 as one of the first Mac compatible online poker rooms. Since then they have established themselves as the leader in online poker and baccarat for Macintosh.
Layout of GamesGrid com
GamesGrid com is very attractive and has a very organized navigational structure, much better than most sites I've seen. Besides the eye candy, Games Grid Poker presents useful information such as basic poker rules, poker news, FAQ, and a full tour of the Gamesgrid poker client.

GamesGrid's poker software isn't quite as appealing as their website suggests. There are no human or customizable avatars, the interface is a simply 2-Dimensional. GamesGrid's simple and sweet software allows players to concentrate more on their game and make better plays. Overall, this software is comparable to that of the PokerRoom com no download light version.
 
Customer Service at GamesGrid com
GamesGrid Poker provides their players with excellent customer service. We tested their customer service twice by sending our inquiries to support@gamesgrid.com. Surprisingly, we received a response to both questions within only 20 minutes. GamesGrid Poker also has a FAQ page for general questions.
Competition at GamesGrid com
GamesGrid Poker has a vast range of competition. Most are right in the average skill range and are simply trying to unlock their huge GamesGrid bonus. Most players seem to stay in the ring games at GamesGrid.
Game Availability at GamesGrid com
GamesGrid com has only been operating since early 2005 and because of this there is a naturally low number of players. Only recently has GamesGrid poker gotten into the online poker industry; they actually started out as an online baccarrat room. Players have been coming into GamesGrid at a constant rate recently and we believe that the number of players will increase to a common level shortly.
Online Poker Tournaments at GamesGrid com
At the moment, GamesGrid has very little poker tournament action. For tournament players, there is always a game here and there, but you will rarely se a multi-table online poker tournament starting up. For the time being, GamesGrid is only a haven for ring game players.
