HOLDEM POKER REVIEW
Overview of Site
Holdem Poker is one of many poker rooms owned and operated by Poker Network-Ongame Group. Holdem Poker shares customer base with Poker Room, Hollywood Poker and Euro Poker. This site has easier than average competition and strong software in both java and a downloadable version. Their signup bonus is strong.
Ease of Competition
There are quite a few soft games available at Holdem Poker at the lower stakes Limit and No limit tables. It starts to get tighter as the stakes increase. Still, you can find $1/$2 no-limit Holdem tables with a view flop percentage over 40%. Overall, many full ten-player hold'em games have a view flop percentage above the 50 percentile. So the games are quite soft and the trend is good.
Bonuses and Promotions
Holdem Poker has a 100% Signup bonus up to $100.
Holdem poker offers .07 to .21 player points depending on the rake of hand you are participating in. You earn points by being dealt cards in raked hands. For every $.10 in rake, you earn .07 player points. You also earn 5 player points for every dollar you pay in entry fees into tournaments. This bonus is relatively easy to bring to fruition, even at low-stakes. However, the size of the bonus and the rate it clears is particularly appealing for high-stakes players.
AllOnlinePokerSites.com players will also be awarded reload bonuses and freerolls exclusive to the site players. Any of the banners on this page will get you the best bonus deal anywhere at Holdem Poker. Just use this link to HoldemPoker.com to get the AllOnlinePokerSites.com bonus package.
Holdem Poker has a bunch of enticing promotions. These promotions include a Royal Flush bonus. If a player hits a royal flush using at least one hole card, they win a cash prize of 100 times the big blind of the stakes of the game (maximum prize of $5,000). So for a $2-$4 game, the payout would be $200.
If you deposit over $50, you get a free ticket to a $5.50 Sit-N-Go.
Refer a Friend Program: The referrer gets a $20 bonus and the referral gets a $10 bonus.
Software Package
Fast and reliable software with a nice look. The site displays a solid statistical package which includes a statistical analysis of hands. It has an easily used player-notes function. For Mac and Linux users, this software is available in both java and download version and provides an excellent 3D environment in download version. We don't like the fact that from the lobby, you need to click on each table to get the statistical information. The software also has a "full screen option," which cannot be used if you are multi-tabling.
Multi-Table Capability: 4
Rake/Cashouts/Customer Service
The rake is standard in the industry at 5% of the pot up to $3.
Cashout Options: NETeller, FirePay, Prepaid ATM, courier check, regular check, Click to Pay.
