Online Poker Rankings 2018
The biggest poker sites are oftentimes the best places to play online poker. The biggest internet poker sites have the largest game selection, and it can be easy to find your favorite game at any time of the day or night. At many of the smaller rooms it can be difficult to find any games other than no limit texas holdem, and there may not even be a lot of those games running when you decide to play.
At the biggest online poker sites you can play limit or no limit holdem, Omaha high or Omaha high/low, stud or stud high/low, and a variety of mixed games and draw games. You simply can’t find all of these other games at smaller online poker sites. The rooms with the most players also have bigger poker tournaments, which will mean bigger prizepools to play for. The three biggest online poker rooms are PokerStars, 888Poker, and Party Poker.
PokerStars – Biggest Online Poker Site

PokerStars took over as the biggest poker site when Party Poker pulled out of the US market. There are many reasons that Pokerstars is the largest internet poker site. Some of these reasons are great software, good customer service, sound security, and frequent bonuses and promotions.
The software at PokerStars.com is widely considered to be the best in the business because it is easy to navigate, it doesn’t crash, and it has cool options such as customer avatars and the locate a player feature.

Party Poker – Second Largest Poker Site
At one point in time Party Poker was the biggest poker site on the internet, but they lost that distinction when they decided to pull out of the US market. Party Poker was concerned about the legality of operating in the United States, so they made a decision to not allow US players. While this decision has hurt Party Poker in the short term, it appears now to be a wise long term move.
Party Poker is still one of the most popular poker rooms for players from around the world, and there a number of reasons why. Party Poker was one of the first poker sites to market, and they advertised heavily (and continue to do so today). They have a huge player base that has been built up over the course of the last nine years, and many of their initial players still play at the site today.
Party Poker has a huge game selection in both cash games and in online poker tournaments. You can find a wide range of stakes, including penny games and games where there are thousands of dollars that change hands at the click of a mouse. PokerNews.com has an exclusive bonus for new players to Party Poker.

Michael Chi “mczhang” Zhang is the number two in the UK and 12th in the world, his highest global rank yet. Both Leonard and Zhang are now in Las Vegas for the 2018 World Series of Poker, which gives third-place Jonathan “proudflop” Proudfoot a chance to close the pair’s lead.
Proudfoot has been in superb form of late and that form now translates to a 17th place on the worldwide leaderboard.
Another player who has reached an all-time high is Dean “muggggy” Quinn. The Cornwall-based grinder is now ranked 10th in the UK and 61st in the world. Quinn seems to do most of his grinding at partypoker where he is rapidly approaching $750,000 in winnings.
