Interpoker
 

Anyone doing their monthly reload bonuses? How easy is it to clear? Are there NL tables? Is everyhand dealt considered raked? And do you need to get a PIN number from them before any of your dough gets cashed out?

hey
 

interpoker must have the least action ive ever seen on any site ever, I took it off my system.

You should check out Tropics poker. I have logged in in the early morning and had 0 players on. Yes 0. nada, zilch. unreal, but they gave me free $ and I'm slowly building it up til I get the FPP's to cash out and move it to another site (probably pokerroom).

inter poker bonus
 

I have collected their monthly bonus every month since they started doing it. You have to play 5x the number of hands for the deposit - i.e. if you put in $100 - you get $100 bonus (100%), but you have to play 500 hands. I am not sure if they mean ANY hand you are in, or only ones you play - i think its any hand you are sitting down at though. (i have not been able to locate a thing that tracks your hands played)

The game selection is not huge. They have amounts in american dollars, and i think euros and pounds. They convert your amounts - so you can sort of use this to play at what is the equivalent of $4/$8 and things like that.

Be forewarned that early on in this site, i had issues. I got paper mail and email from them in Japanese, for three days i couldnt read my cashier site because it was all in symbolics, goofy stuff like that. But, i have not had any real issues lately. Also, if you depost via Firepay - it takes like 10 days for it to go through for some reason. They will let you blow it in the casino - but not the tables. However, Neteller seems to work right away.

They also charge $1 to make withdrawals. And I have read that the rake is brutal compared to other sites. With that said, i find the play very loose. Seems a lot of 'gamblers' playing strictly for fun. Also offers a lot of European players - if that interests you at all.

If you are a low-limit player or just starting out, this might be a good site to jump-start your bankroll. For those of you playing with $100 bankroll - you could deposit it here, play break-even poker over a long weekend, and double your bankroll. But, again i warn you that in terms of quality compared to other sites - its not nearly as strong as the big ones. But, if they were, they wouldnt be handing out 100% bonuses up to $100 every month.

PIN number
 

Oh, yeah. For the PIN number, you get one in the regular mail - at least that is how i got mine (it came in Japanese too - but the word PIN and a number were obvious so it was okay). You need that to do any form of cash out - either check or electronic.

Thanks PokerNovice, that's very informative. Ya, I've been fishing around for bonuses and it seems like Interpoker has one of the best bonus offers available. The whole PIN thing seems to be a bit of an issue. I believe you can d/l a program to track how many hands you are dealt (which is the way Interpoker counts - I think).

I'll probably make a deposit sometime this month. Still not sure if I should wait for some Christmas Promos that'll surely come out from the bigger sites, or just start depositing there now anyways.

Gotta love the Japanese stuff. I had a mailing or two like that from them as well.

Overall, I found the site very annoying, compared to the big ones... so much so that I don't bother with the $100 per month bouses (there are plenty of these on the big sites to keep me busy). But as PokeNovice said, I do recommend this for a low stakes player looking to jump start a bankroll.

Here's a link for ya:

I just d/l it and watched a few of their NL ring games. Looks like a lot of loose play, which scares me, since you can go broke on one bad beat. Maybe I should start practicing limit poker...hehe.
