ONLINE POKER REVIEW - PARADISE POKER
Overview
Paradise Poker have been around a long time by online poker room standards. They were founded in 1999, running their own software. Since then, they have been acquired by Sportingbet PLC (2004) and joined the Boss/IPN network. VIP Card Club members signing up to Paradise Poker not only get to play at a reputable room with great customer service, they also receive 30% rakeback - paid monthly, straight into their poker account.
Bonus & Promotions
A simply massive deposit bonus is available at Paradise Poker. 200% of your first deposit up to €1,000. The bonus clears at a reasonable rate and in increments - meaning you don't have to clear the whole bonus before seeing your free cash!
Everytime you play a raked hand or a real-money tournament, you are paying rake. Each month, Paradise Poker pays back 30% of this rake straight into your account, giving you free money to play with or withdraw. You must rake at least €100 in a month to receive this payment, but don't worry if you don't. Your total rolls over until you have enough to receive your monthly payment.
VIP Card Club members can gain even more value from playing at Paradise Poker by signing up for an account and opting in to our MEMBER REWARDS scheme.
Software & Graphics
Paradise Poker is on the Boss/IPN network - a stable and reliable network with plenty of features. The lobby is well organised with filter options and the whole package is easy on the eye.
The software is decent enough and runs at a fair speed. It is user friendly and Boss/IPN regularly update the software with improvements.
Games Offered
Like most poker rooms on a network, there is great selection of games and stakes available. Texas Hold'em and Omaha games are in plentiful supply and 7 Card Stud, 5 Card Stud and 5 Card draw are also there. From the low stakes through to the high stakes, there is something for everyone.
The spread of tournaments is also impressive. Both single and multi table tournaments are always running at a variety of tournaments. There are some excellent guaranteed tournaments which offer great value.
Traffic & Player Quality
Popular throughout Europe, traffic to the site is very good. It usually peaks during European evening hours during the week, and at the weekends there is a consistently a good number of players on the site.
The standard of play, like on many poker networks, varies. This particular network is not hugely popular with the mass multi-tabling robot-like players, which is good news for the game. A little softer than some of the other networks, there is always games worth playing at Paradise Poker.
