Let us continue reviewing leading poker rooms:

32Red is a solid poker room that offers all the necessary features to give you an enjoyable experience playing poker at their room. The room is part of the larger Microgaming network, which is a very popular network offering solid software and receives a large portion of the online poker traffic. 32Red is a cut above the rest one it comes to promotions, offering numerous promotions to both new and old players alike. A good example is the ‘red 3s&2s’ where if you receive a red 3 and a 2 as your holecards in any cash game on Thursdays, you will be rewarded with 320 ‘RedBacks’, which can be used as buy-ins for special tournaments.
Software
The graphics are a little basic compared to other rooms, but the layout is effective and easy to use. The software itself is reliable and has some nice features such as the ‘mini mode’ view for tables which will allow you to squeeze 4 tables onto your screen with no overlap, which is incredibly useful if you like to multi-table. Every prima skin also has a seating preferences option which allows you to choose which seat you want to appear in by rotating the other players around the table. The lobby however is well designed, and allows you to easily sort between the different games and limits on offer via a tree-structured listing system.
Traffic
32Red shares the same players as every other room on the Microgaming poker network. It has a decent amount of players in relation to other poker rooms but the volume is not overwhelming. There are always enough tables open to allow to find a table almost immediately with little or no waiting times.
Competition
The 32Red room is part of the prima poker network. The network shares the same players so there is a fair amount of soft competition but not a lot in comparison to the big name poker rooms. If soft competition is what you are looking for in a room, it may be in your best interest to look elsewhere.
Support
32Red offers numerous methods to contact the room, such as email, phone, mail and live-chat services. The live-chat service is a great feature that allows you to speak directly with a customer support staff member via a messaging program. This works well in helping you to quickly and efficiently sort out any problems or queries that you have. The email service is good, but replies are usually received around about an hour after mailing them.
Bonus

32Red offers a 100% sign up bonus of $50. A minimum of $50 must be deposited in order to be eligible to receive the bonus. The bonus will then be held and can be redeemed after accumulating 400 redbacks (loyalty points) within a 60 day period.
