  • Winter Promo for Euros

    Titan Poker, among the best online poker sites on the Internet, introduced the All-In Winter leaderboards in December. A great thing about this promo is that it caters to everyone, including the cash players and tournament players. And if you like freerolls, you have something to look forward to, as well!

    People that submit the Titan Poker bonus code this winter will be able to play in the Cash Tables Races. The goal is to basically produce as much rake as possible by playing as much as possible. The players that pay the most rake rank the highest on the leaderboards. The High Blinds leaderboard includes stakes $1/$2 and above, and everyone that plays lower than that will get ranked on the Low Blinds leaderboard.

    Titan really shows that they are one of the top Texas Holdem sites by giving out a ton of cash. The High Blinds leaderboard has a $7,000 prize pool every week, and 1st place receives $1k. Similarly, every week the Low Blinds leaderboard has $3k available for its winners, with 1st place receiving $425.

    The Titan Poker download also benefits Sit-n-Go players this month. The Sit-n-Go competition also has two different leaderboards and is also based on rake paid. There is $6,000 available for the High leaderboard, and there is $2k reserved for the Low leaderboard.

    If you are new to money poker sites and do not have much of a bankroll, there are two huge freerolls scheduled: one in January, one in February. Each freeroll has a $10k prize pool!

    Last but not least, let’s discuss the promotion available for tournament players. Leave your Blackjack download for the month because you will be required to enter as many tournaments on Titan as possible. The prize pool is a whopping $50k, and the winner also receives a package for live events worth $14k!

    Whatever your game is, good luck on those leaderboards!

  • Titan Poker VIP Rewards

    Titanpoker.com has put together one of the best online poker VIP programs online today. If you like collecting points and saving for huge cash bonuses, they might be on the right track. This article will talk about both how to earn points and also how to trade them in.

    Receiving points on the Titanpoker download is straightforward, especially if you are a tournament player. Tourneys offer seventeen points for every $1 in tourney fees charged. For instance, a $30+$3 event offers 51 points.

    The points earned in a cash game depends on the rake taken in a given pot. If you made use of a Titan Poker bonus code, you should take a look at this since the bonus requires points to become cleared. Visit Titan’s website for full info regarding the points you earn per pot, but if you want a couple examples, here you go: $0.06 rake would net you 0.3 points, $0.90 would provide 4 points, and $5.00 would net you 24 points.

    Similar to the VIP program on the PokerStars download, certain VIP levels provide point multipliers. For instance, obtaining 1k points in a single month would move you from VIP Bronze to VIP Silver, which boosts all your future points by 20%. The highest level is VIP Diamond. It takes 35,000 points per month to get there, and then you will receive a handsome 120% bonus on your points.

    Even when you have collected a significant number of points, you should think about waiting until you collect even more. This is because unlike the Everest Poker download, the more points you cash in, the more bonus dollars you get per point. One end of the spectrum has you paying 2,000 points for $10 and the other end has you paying 7 million points for $120k. That is a huge difference!

    Several of the best Euro poker sites boast rakeback or VIP programs, and certain sites will appeal to you more than others. If you would like to read more about Titanpoker, be sure to read my previous two entries.

  • Titanpoker Interface

    A couple weeks ago I mentioned that Titan Poker is one of the best online poker sites on the Internet. My next couple of entries will expand on that. Today I will discuss the interface and the next article will describe their rewards program.

    The Titanpoker bonus code offers a slick 3D design and animated dealers that actually speak when someone calls, folds, or raises. This is a great way to feel more involved in your poker game. If you do not like the chat bar in its default place, you can move it or even remove it. You can even pick and choose between the chat you see in the bar, whether it’s dealer, players, summaries, or all of it. Some players love chat and others hate it, so Titan really gives players the chance to decide how they want it. You have a number of choices where your avatar is concerned, but unlike when you download PokerStars, you are not given the chance to upload your own image. When it comes to the tables, you can choose to have a warning displayed for large all-in bets, a great feature for preventing misclicks. If you are someone that always has to have their own way, you will love the customized options.

    When you play poker, your tables open up as individual windows. If you want to make serious money in online poker rooms, you likely prefer to multi-table. To help out, you will find a Mini Table feature that instantly tiles your tables according to your monitor’s resolution. This should help you multi-table like a pro!

    If you want to see hand histories, they are laid out quite nicely in a graphic format. There are, however, plenty of people that dislike graphic hand histories and prefer text hand histories, especially those comfortable with the PokerStars download.

    If you need a flash site for your Mac, you will be pleased to know that the software was updated in a number of languages. If you are a fan of flash Texas Holdem, you can’t go wrong with Titanpoker.

  • Titanpoker Review

    Titanpoker is one of the best online poker sites on the iPoker Network, as well as the number one online poker room in Europe. Because Titan Poker is on the iPoker network, they have a large player base that a large number of other skins contribute to. Americans will be disappointed to know that they are not one of the US poker sites available at this time. TitanPoker employs Playtech’s industry leading software and therefore the interface is well run and great to look at.

    Titanpoker has become one of the top Texas Holdem sites online, but they also offer Omaha, Stud and Razz. They offer all of these as heads-up games from $0.02/$0.04 up to $300/$600. There are also several scheduled tournaments with guaranteed prize pools. If you are new to the site, you get to enter the $20,000 New Depositors Freeroll, something that PokerStars bonus code enthusiasts won’t know much about. There are often players who sign up for the tournament but forget to play it, so it can turn out to be an easy money-making gem for those that remember.

    Sit & Go tournaments on the Titanpoker download have lots of players in them. You can play as low as $0.10+$0.02 and as high as $5,000+$200. The last time we looked, we estimated that at least 600 people were playing or about to play. I am the first to admit that Titan Poker can’t compete with the traffic on the best US poker sites. That being said, the range of games and the number of players in this room should keep everyone reasonably happy.

    If you have used a Titanpoker bonus code and are itching for some multi-table tourney action, you will find some healthy fields to compete in. The scheduled tourneys usually have excellent participation, and when they don’t, you have the chance at some overlay. There is a large variety of game types to choose from as well as stakes for every bankroll. Buy-ins start at $0 with freerolls and go up to $160 + $12. They also have a lot of invitational events for VIP players. Are you reconsidering your PartyPoker bonus code now? Don’t toss it out yet, but definitely consider Titanpoker before making a decision!

  • Everest Poker Rakeback 2

    (This is the second of two entries regarding the Everest Poker VIP Program)

    The Death Zone – Everest shows that they have one of the best online poker VIP programs with the Death Zone. The Death Zone requires a minimum of 30,000 SPs, and this gives you an SP bonus rate of 700%. The maximum cash bonus allowed every month increases to $2,000. If you refer a friend to the site, your bonus increases to $200. You even get entered into a bigger freeroll of $25k every month. Not a lot of the other best Euro poker sites have a monthly freeroll so large. Aside from your personalized customer support, you now get personalized service for live event registration and can exchange SPs for brick-and-mortar tourney seats. You will receive the benefits from this level for three months.

    The Summit – If you dream of being the top player on the Everest Poker download, the Summit will be your VIP level of choice. The Summit is the highest VIP level, and you reach it once you collect at least 50k monthly SPs. As a reward for their hard efforts, Summit players get an SP multiplier of 750%. Every month points can be converted for up to $5k in bonus funds. Everything else to this VIP level is the same as in the Death Zone, and unlike the VIP program you get when you download PokerStars, you get your perks for three months.

    One thing I should mention: the bonus SPs do not count towards your VIP level. Similar to VIP programs on most US friendly poker sites, you only move up in VIP levels with non-bonus SPs. For an estimate of which VIP level you might achieve depending on how much you play, take a look at their points calculator. The calculator shows that playing 50,000 hands at $200NL earns around 33,000 base SPs, which is good enough for the Death Zone. Unlike the highest VIP levels on some casinos for USA players, this is not so difficult. And remember that these are base points and we are not counting the 700% bonus points you will collect!

    All cash bonuses cost 250x the amount in Summit Points. So if you want $350, you need 87.5k SPs. You might think to yourself that other money poker sites charge less for their bonuses at higher VIP levels. Don’t forget that moving up in VIP levels means you are earning points much faster, though. At the higher levels, Everest Poker’s VIP program provides a lot of rakeback. Before you use that PartyPoker bonus code, definitely give Everest a hard look.
