I have been writing this blog for quite some time now and what I have come to realize is that there are plenty of websites claiming to offer online rummy but the majority of these websites actually transfer you to Rummy Royal if you decide to take them up on their offer and play online rummy.

Online rummy really is very popular and it has got me wondering why Rummy Royal is holding the monopoly when it comes to online rummy games and tournaments.  Surely there are other websites out there who have the software and the capability of taking on Rummy Royal.  I know that there is 32Red Rummy but if you go to their promotions page you will see that the big tournaments are the very same as the ones being held on Rummy Royal. Are all these online rummy websites connected or are these just affiliate websites where people are claiming to offer online rummy games but instead just promoting Rummy Royal so that they get commissions?

I have come across one or two additional websites where you can play online rummy but the prizes that are up for grabs are really tiny when compared to what Rummy Royal have to offer.  There are also websites that allow you to play free online rummy games and there are one or two online casinos that have an online rummy game available too.  These other websites just don’t offer what Rummy Royal do and it makes me wonder why this is.  Why is it that Rummy Royal hold all the cards when it comes to online rummy?

Rummy Royal have an excellent website, they offer great beginner tutorials and they have the best online rummy community too. This is what makes them so popular and if you want to learn the tricks and strategies to playing online rummy and all the different variations that there are of this game then Rummy Royal really is the website that you need to join.  They have great tournaments and prize funds so if online rummy is for you then so is Rummy Royal.
