What
We Say:
Paradise Poker has
one of the best software platforms around and supports very
high traffic in both cash games and tournaments. Paradise
Poker was the pioneer in online poker and its software has
served as a model for the industry. Paradise Poker has great
game variation with almost every game out there, as well good
sit'n'go tournament coverage and plenty of heads-up games.
Security and email support is good as well. There are few
drawbacks; no loyalty promotions and very tight games being
the most notable.
Paradise Poker Software and graphics:
Paradise Poker is widely regarded as a poker software leader
with its clean, sleek and reliable graphics and software.
The platform is one of the most quick and stable in the industry.
Paradise Poker supports notes on other players and has good
statistics functions. The precise pot size is not provided
numerically, unless you run the cursor over the pot. Some
players have complained that the software can get a little
messy, if the computer does not support all needed plug-ins
etc.
Paradise Poker Ring game traffic:
Paradise Poker was the world's largest poker site until Party
Poker took that spot. However, the traffic is still pretty
phenomenal today. The number of real money ring game
players at peak hours is currently 2500-4000.
Paradise Poker Tournament traffic:
The traffic at the tournaments is very good, also at the sit-and-go
tables. At peak hours the number of real money tournament
players now reaches between 4000-7000.
Paradise Poker Game variety:
Paradise Poker's game variety is one of the best in the industry,
including no-limit and pot-limit at most standard games and
more rare games such as five-card draw, five-card stud and
crazy pineapple.
Paradise Poker Rake:
Paradise Poker's rake is about average for the industry, at
least when it comes to lower limit games. This is true as
well for the tournaments, where lower rakes only come into
play at the higher stakes tables.
Paradise Poker Soft competition:
Paradise Poker is known for the quality of their players and
the tightness of their games. Full, mid-stakes Hold'em
games rarely have a view flop percentage over 40%.

increments is paid out. $1,000 backdoor freeroll.

Paradise Poker Promotions
Paradise Poker promotions are above average, but considering
the high volume of traffic to their tables, we feel they could
use a littlee improvement. Landmark hand number bonus

and some promotions for frequent players.

customer support. You often get an answer in a minute. However
