The Software

Playboy use the Cryptologic platform for their poker room, as they do for their casino. The Playboy software is simple to operate, functional enough and perfectly stable - although the graphics are perhaps are little behind some of their competitors. As they are on the Cryptologic network with a number of other sites, you can expect a decent amount of traffic.

The lobby does exactly what you need it to do - everything you need to see is visible and games can be sorted according to your own preferences. A range of decent features, including note-taking on fellow players, on-line hand histories and the option to check out your own stats while playing.
