Full review of Inter Poker
Summary (7.08) PokersListings is sponsoring five packages worth $10,000 EACH together with InterPoker.com for the Caribbean Poker Classic 2005 held in St. Kitts from Nov 25 to Dec 4. Both new and existing PokersListings players will get the chance to participate in this amazing promotion! See promotion page for all details. World-exclusive $300 sign-up bonus for new players making first deposit PLUS $90 monthly re-load bonus. The first $90 is released after the first 450 qualified raked hands ($1 rake and up), play a total of 1,825 raked hands (1,375 more qualified raked hands) and get an amazing $30 extra0 bonus - for a total of $390! Only via PokersListings' bonus code "PL3000". You can earn over $1,300 in bonus per year! Inter Poker is a very popular poker room, managed by the world's second largest casino - Inter Casino. The poker tables have wild and loose games and now the world's largest $100 monthly loyalty bonus. Inter Poker uses CryptoLogic's platform, with a shared player base. The games are among the loosest today, so if you are looking for soft games this is a good place to choose. The player volume is the world's fastest growing among the top poker networks and has more than four-doubled in 2004, as they have introduced no-limit and pot-limit, as well as multi-table tournaments. The software has good functionality, but the graphics are not as nice. The monthly re-load bonus of $90 is awarded after a new deposit of $100 and then playing 800 raked hands, which typically takes about 25 hours at one single table. There is also an open "proposition player" program, where you get paid to start up new games or play in short-handed games. Real money player statistics - July 2005: 1500-2000 ring game players at peak hours, 1500-2200 tournament players at peak hours.
Software and graphics (5) Inter Poker uses CryptoLogic software and network, with a shared player base with the other room operators, among other William Hill. The software is not so visually appealing, but the functionality is quite good after several updates. The time clock requires the players to act quite quickly, which is good for players who appreciate fast games. The site has nice voice options.
Ring game traffic (7) Inter Poker has 1500-2000 real players at peak times, growing at a fast pace.
Tournament traffic (7) Inter Poker's traffic at the tournaments is good nowadays, with 1500-2200 players at peak times. This is over a 1000% increase since one year ago!
Game variety (5) The game variety at Inter Poker is OK, with Texas Holdem, Omaha Hi and Hi-Lo and seven-card stud - besides fixed limit games, there are no-limit and pot-limit offered in Texas Holdem and pot-limit in both Omaha versions. Games can be played in dollar, pound or euro. There are super high limit tables with £100/£200 in fixed limit and £5/£10 in no-limit Texas Holdem. The $0.50/$1.00 games are the smallest limit.
Rake (4) The rake at Inter Poker is slightly less attractive than the average of the industry for standard games. For the big bet tables the rake is relatively low. A rake of 5% is raked on every pot over £5/$5, up to a maximum of £3/$3. There is a "no flop - no drop" policy for hands not reaching the flop.
Soft competition (8) With the sports book and casino clientele from Inter Poker and other Cryptologic partner such as William Hill, there are quite a few players with less poker experience. There is a window of opportunity for the tight aggressive player to win a the tables. The view flop percentage at the most loose full tables at mid level stakes can often be up in the 40-ies and 50-ies.
Sign up bonus (10) World-exclusive $300 sign-up bonus at Inter Poker for PokersListings visitors, using our bonus code “PL3000”. There is only a minimum deposit of $20 required for this bonus (but in order to reach raked hands requirement, it is advisable to deposit $200 or more). In order to clear the $300 bonus, players need to reach 1,825 raked hands. A raked hand is defined as being dealt cards in a pot where the rake is $1, £1, €1 or more, which is the case for a 20 pot. (Hence many pots in the low limit stakes do not qualify). There is no time limit to reach the 1,825 raked hands. The monthly re-load bonus is released simultaneously as the PL3000 bonus, so by depositing at least $100 and playing 1,825 raked hands a player will get a fantastic $390 bonus. The $90 bonus will be released after the first 450 hands and the $300 bonus will be released after another 1,375 hands. Note that the $300 bonus will not appear in the pending bonus field in the cashier as this is an extra special bonus. As soon as the $300 sign-up bonus and the first $90 monthly loyalty bonus is cleared after 1,825 raked hands, our users will get a monthly re-load bonus of $90 the following calendar month. In order to get this bonus the player just needs to deposit $90 or more and then play 450 raked hands that very same calendar month. This package gives our players about $1,400 bonus the first year, with very low raked hands requirement. This is probably the world's best overall online poker deal right now!
Loyalty bonus (10) Yes, there is the monthly $90 re-load bonus awarded as the player first deposits and then completes the 450th real money hand in a raked pot with $1 or more in total rake.
Promotions (9) PokersListings is sponsoring five packages worth $10,000 EACH together with InterPoker.com for the Caribbean Poker Classic 2005 held in St. Kitts from Nov 25 to Dec 4. Both new and existing PokersListings players will get the chance to participate in this amazing promotion! See promotion page for all details. Quite a few "skin specific" promotions for Inter Poker, with WSOP promotions etc. Maybe the best feature is all the money-added or money guaranteed tournaments. Also, there is the open proposition player program for all real money players, where the player get $10-$30 pro rata (i.e. $1-$3 per six minutes) for any amount of time playing at specified table. Each specified table only pays the player for a maximum of two hours ($20-$60). Also a progressive bad beat jackpot and a royal flush jackpot.
Support (6) There is live online and telephone support, as well as email support.
Financial security (9) It is very secure, as the mother company is one of the largest online casinos since may years back. Top score.
