Doyles Room is an online poker room endorsed by the living poker

room was first launched in 2004 as part of the Tribeca Table
Network. In Early 2007 the Tribeca Network merged into PlayTech's
iPoker Netwok. Doyles Room opted not to be part of the merger and
made the decision to join the Microgaming Network. This network
hosts dozens of online poker rooms such as
Poker Host, Poker Share,
Crazy Poker and dozens of others.

Soft competition (5)
DoylesRoom has a
great deal of fish who show up simply to play at the same site
as Doyle Brunson and Mike Caro. Also quite a few inexperienced
players spill over from the casinos owned by other MicroGaming partners creating lots of soft games.
But this is all offset by the large number of incentives and
bonus whore players who migrate to this network and make for
tougher games.
