Celeb Poker Review
Overview
CelebPoker is part of the iPoker Network. CelebPoker is a nice site that offers players the opportunity to play with celebrities. The site has soft competition and a strong bonus program. The software is a solid package and the rake and the customer service is quite good.
iPoker Network
The ipoker Network includes all of the below poker rooms which share customer base: William Hill, Noble Poker, Titan Poker, CelebPoker, Poker 770, Prestige Poker, Tong G, CentreBet, PaddyPower, BlackPool Club, Poker Plex, Windows Poker, VC Poker, BetFred.com, Poker Ocean, BlueSQ, Bet365, ChiliPoker, Diamond Club, Expect, CDPoker, Fair Poker, SunPoker, Kiwi Poker, among others.
The iPoker Network is one of the top poker networks for European players primarily focusing on the international market. The network software is provided by Playtech. and recently went through an overhaul to offer players more features and faster game play. The iPoker Network is available in more than fifteen different languages, supports games in Euros and Pounds and provides seats to some of the biggest tournaments across Europe. The network is available for Mac, Windows and Linux players. Poker players can choose from No Limit, fixed limit, and pot limit betting styles, and can choose to play with Pounds, Euros, or US dollars.
AllOnlinePokerSites has listed some of the leading rooms in this Network, but not all. I think you will find that the difference between them is minimal.
Celeb Poker is a Euro Site
This site does not accept US Players. Why should you choose a Euro site?
Many of the poker sites who appear to be Euro friendly will force their players to deposit in USD or exchange their funds for USD. The problem with this is that the exchange rates fluctuate day to day and they will pay you a lower premium to have your Euros converted to Dollars or Pounds. Likewise, when it comes time to cash out you could lose based on that days rate. This is why Euro poker sites are the preferred poker site for European players. Because if you are going to deposit to a poker site in Euros, Celeb Poker will not only allow you to deposit in Euros, but play in Euros.
Ease of Competition
With many new players being fed in to the rooms by the ipoker Network, the competition is easier at than at most sites. In general, the rooms are quite soft at all games with 40-50% seeing the flop. This includes the higher stakes and no-limit games.
