I would prefer to test out a site’s software to see how it’s going to work with my system and connection and any problems there might be before risking any actual money.  Which sites do you know of allow a free play test or download?  I understand it wouldn’t be for cash prizes.

I think most sites allow you to play with a deposit, you just can’t win any real cash that way.  It’s actually quite rare that I’ve seen a site that doesn’t offer a free option.

How can you play with a deposit, wouldn’t it be easier just to use fake chips instead? I have seen tons that are for slots only but none for poker or any other card games.

I agree, I’ve seen plenty that grant you newbie tables or fake chips, but not deposit options-I don’t even understand what you mean by that. Can you explain please?

Most site have that kind of feature so you don’t really have to worry that much. They also understand how you feel and that you could be scared so they really offer that kind of free service.
