August 2010 : This month, at the
Alternate Poker Forum (APF), we have money
added games at Power Poker, Doyles Room Poker, Intertops Poker, Cake Poker and more. Information for all our
games and leagues can be found in the
APF Tournament Areas.
The forum is not only for members to play and discuss poker but also features casino, gambling and sporting odds sections.
Our membership is completely free.
Recent Updates (RSS Feeds) : To make it easier to find all the most recent updates on this site, we have a special newsfeed
page which will update automatically whenever an important change is made to the site. The
Alternate Poker Updates may include new or updated poker room reviews, tournaments and promotions,
forum news, added tools, information or articles and so on. Also on this page, is a feed bringing you all the updates across the Alternate Network of sites.
This feed will include updates from Alternate Poker, Alternate Casinos and Alternate Sports. Both these feeds are also available in the
RSS format so you can add either one to your Personal Bookmarks, Google, Yahoo and other feed sharing clients - just use
"Subscribe to the Alternate Poker Updates feed" seen on the updates page. The RSS icon looks like this
(takes you to the updates page) and
can be found next to the alternate logo, at the bottom right on every page of the Alternate Poker website. Alternatively, you can
go there directly ...here

your bad beat bonuses.
Each month, many sites run Rake & Pts Races. We'll show you some great ongoing races which often have
very generous cash or tournament prizes.
Special Online Tounaments will have the pick of freeroll and buyin events that have huge
cash, special or live tournament package prizes for the minimum cost to you. The buyins are superb value for money with large overlays and
guaranteed cash no matter how many players enter. Again, we cannot possibly list all the great games on offer, but we'll try to make
sure to find the pick of the crop with dates, times and entry restrictions for each game. We advise checking each rooms homepage

Poker Hand Replayer : If you've ever wanted to animate a specific hand and post it on the forum or in a blog, then
The Poker Hand Replayer could be just
what you've been looking for. We've included instructions for how to create and post your replay just below the
main player. Not all poker scripts are supported but most network hand histories should work provided you enter the information as described.
If you have a problem with it, just post your hand history on the Alternate Poker
Forum and one of the mods or admin will try to do it for you. Bear in mind, that the replayer can usually only produce one hand at
a time (in some cases more), so generally it's best not to try for an entire tournament hand history but just one to begin with.

Also you can discover hundred of flash casino games -
If you have a little spare time, try some of our
Poker Flash Games. These are purely for fun but may
well provide a useful learning tool for poker newbies experimenting with the game and perhaps have a little something for the more
experienced players too. A Flash Player is required.
Video Legends : The term "legend" is often hard to quantify and thrown around far to easily in my humble opinion, but in
The Legends section we present some of
the true giants of poker with interviews, commentary and recorded moments on video, here at Alternate Poker.
