What is the iPoker Network?
If you're not familiar with the concept of a poker network, give our guide to poker networks a quick read before continuing on. The iPoker Network is a collection of a few dozen individual poker rooms that all share a common player pool and use the same software. Marquee names included in the iPoker lineup include Titan Poker, William Hill Poker, Paddy Power Poker.
The iPoker Network is collectively one of the most popular poker rooms in the industry. Players appreciate the high traffic levels, software that is feature-rich as well as stable and network-wide promotions that award serious value to players. Some drawbacks of the iPoker Network: Not a ton of action at higher stakes for cash game or tournament players, and VIP value is distributed a bit unevenly across the different player tiers.
iPoker Network rooms use the Playtech software. Widely regarded as one of the more mature, stable poker platforms, Playtech comes equipped with all of the standard poker features and then some. Highlights include: Real-time game review, an advanced hand history replayer, native support for in-game keyboard shortcuts, a direct link to support from within the lobby and a quick deposit function that makes getting money into your account a fast and easy process.
The iPoker Network recently rolled out a fast-fold client called "Speed Poker" (although some rooms on the iPoker network brand the client differently). Speed Poker allows you to jump from one hand to the next the instant you fold, making the pace of poker even faster than it was before.
Together, the rooms that make up the iPoker Network comprise the second largest poker room online. The size translates to a pretty packed menu of game options for poker players, regardless of the time of day.
The majority of cash game and tournament action at the iPoker Network is no limit hold'em, although you'll also find plenty of pot limit omaha games running at most times - and the poker room has lots of fish. Small stakes games make up the bulk of total tables, but mid and high-stakes games do run with regular frequency at iPoker Network rooms. The network also hosts a few tournament events during the course of the year, with the annual iPoker Online Poker Series (iPOPS) serving as the flagship event.
Some iPoker rooms offer their own promotions, but all rooms share a common set of basic promotions. The most popular among those core promotions at the iPoker Network:
