Sun Poker

Anyone familiar with Cryptologic software and Peak Entertainment may notice that Sun Poker looks very similar to another poker room, InterPoker.  They share the same software and common player base, but that is pretty much where the similarities stop.  Sun Poker, decorated in yellow and green, is a very popular poker room with heavy traffic and soft competition.  It was once known as Caribbean Sun and the casino side of this particular poker room is Sands of the Caribbean.  Recently, Kenna James became the spokeswoman for this cool poker room.

Players at Sun Poker will enjoy Texas Hold’Em, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, and Seven Card Stud.  All of the games can be played in American Dollars, British Pounds Sterling, and Euros.  The lobby clearly displays the flop percentage for the tables, some of which go pretty high. Stakes start at $0.10/$0.25 and go as high as $150.00/$300.00.  Rakes at the site are standardized according to the industry with a maximum amount of $3.00.  Short-handed tables – less than four players – use an adjusted, lower rake.  Promotions at the site include a $10,000.00 cash reward for ring game leaders and they are awarded for playing the most hands at their particular table.  All the games can be found in limit, fixed limit, pot limit, and no limit versions.

Since Sun Poker and InterPoker share their player base, there are players online at all times of the day and night.  This allows for some loose tables and soft competition, making it a good site for players of all levels and bankrolls.  Tournaments are held in single and multi-table versions and there are plenty for players to participate in.  They hold monthly guaranteed tournaments with prizes totalling $3.5 million dollars and there are weekly tournaments every Sunday with a pot of £40,000.00 guaranteed.  Players can also participate in World Series of Poker qualifying rounds in which they could win one of the coveted seats at this major poker community event.  There is even a super satellite tournament in which players can win a chance to go to the Sun Poker Classic held in St. Kitts.

 
Bonuses at this poker room are wide ranging and they are always adding incentives for their players.  There is a 100% match up to $50 for new players who deposit money into their account.  A second deposit will earn players another 100% match up to $100.  Both bonuses have conditions that must be met in order to be collected.  The loyalty program gives players an extra $40 after they have played 200 raked hands and like many other poker rooms, there is a Bad Beat Jackpot with a minimum prize pot of $2,500.  If a player gets a royal flush during any of their real money games, they will receive an additional $500 for the Royal Flush Jackpot bonus.

Sun Poker’s software includes a note taking feature and hand history.  Free play is available until you register for a real money account.  Customer support at the site can be reached via telephone, fax, live chat, and e-mail.  Deposits and withdrawals can be made via the following options: Citadel; Neteller; FirePay; Click2Pay; PaySafecard; Visa or MasterCard; bank wire transfer; EFT for Scandinavian players; and personal check for American players.
