Well, your question doesn't specify playing for real money, so I thought I'd mention that IRC Poker had online NL HE games for play money in the mid 90's (can't recall exactly when NL first became available). As for the first real money NL game online, I have no idea.

You might be able to find some info on RGP. Best guess for real money, UB in 2001.

I believe Paradise introduced NL games around Summer of 2001. They used the current 100BB / 20BB min buy ins that are standard [/ QUOTE ] It was late 2002 on Paradise. The games were not popular at first. Highest limit was $200 NL I think. You could probably find the threads about it in the archives. |

Yeah, I played a lot of paradise in 2001 and there was no NL. 2001 (maybe late 2000?) was when they first introduced sit n gos and that was all limit, as was the cash games.

I'm not sure which of them had it first though (or even if they were the 1st for real money NLHE.) I think old school Dobrosoft (ACR during the Promo Buck days) had NLHE before Paradise too. |

I am pretty sure Stars had Pot Limit first for real money before No limit. I have hand histories from 2001. $100 max.
I actually think UB was first with NL, and if I reme,ber correctly it was very small like $50 max. There may have been other sites I was not aware of but, I am sure about those 2. |
