Editors comment:
Paradise Poker used to be the foremost online poker room in the industry, almost a monopoly-like grip on the market. That was before the rise of several other aggressive marketing poker rooms. Paradise lost a significant amount of shares of the market as online poker exploded. Lately they have started to compete with the top three rooms and show the rest of the world their time isn’t over yet.
Full review:
(This casino has decided not to allow US players at the moment) Paradise Poker has great software, they are world leaders in the software field. The game runs very smooth and the design is beautiful. The statistics features are very useful and there are seldom any connection problems. Paradise has good game variation, besides the standard games Texas Hold’em, Omaha, 7-Card Stud they also spread Crazy Pineapple (a Texas Hold’em variation), Draw Poker and Five-Card Stud. Though, most games running without a doubt Texas Hold’em, especially in fixed limit. The player volume is the third largest with 2500-3000 real money players on peak hours and between 5000-6000 tournament players. Paradise was infamous for the high level of competition and the high skill level of their players a few years ago but after they joined forces with one of the largest sportsbettors (sportsbook.com) many beginners seemed to soften up the games a lot. Nowadays the games are remarkably softer than before and they are seemingly profitable for an online shark stalking the net.
The rake is at standard for the industry; 5% max $3. Paradise doesn’t have any loyalty program that rewards regulars but there’s occasionally a deposit bonus once in a while.
