Poker Rewards Background
Poker Rewards is a partner of Casino Rewards, which has been in business
since the year 2000, an eternity in the online gaming industry. The poker
room is also a part of the Prima Poker network, which virtually guarantees
that there will be few thousand players online at any given time.
Poker Rewards Game Types
Poker Rewards offers No-Limit, Pot-Limit, and Fixed-Limit hold’em, Pot-Limit
and Fixed-Limit Omaha (both high and high/low variations), seven card stud,
and five card stud. Stakes range from nickel games all the way up to
$100/$200 for both Fixed and No-Limit games. Most of the Fixed-Limit hold’em
action is at the $0.50/$1 through $2/$4 tables, whereas No-Limit players
primarily stick to $1/$2 and lower. There is almost no action at the
Fixed-Limit Omaha tables – if you want to play Omaha at Poker Rewards, you
will need to play Pot-Limit.
Poker Rewards also has plenty of tournaments from which to choose. Many
Sit-and-Go options are available, from standard, 10-person contests, to
short-handed, heads-up, and multi-table games. Additionally, Poker Rewards
has “Rounders” tables, which are special Sit-and-Go’s which give players the
chance to win big money for a small buy-in. The Rounders tournaments consist
of five levels – the top finishers in one level advance to the next. Some
players will be able to redo a level, depending on finish, while the rest
will have to start over. Players can also buy-in directly to any of the
levels. Level one is only a $5 + $0.50 buy-in, but make it to level five, a
$550 + $55 buy-in, and first place wins $3,000.
Of course, Multi-Table tournaments are also in abundance at Poker Rewards.
Guaranteed prize pools, re-buys, freezeouts, and freeroll can all be found
amongst the choices. The structure at Poker Rewards is good, too – players
start with 1,500 chips and blinds only go up every twelve minutes, so there
is plenty of time to play solid poker.
Like most online poker rooms, Poker Rewards holds tournaments in which
players can win seats to prestigious live poker events. Satellites, in the
form of both Sit-and-Go’s and Multi-Table tournaments, are running around
the clock. Poker Rewards stands out from the other rooms with its World
Series of Poker (WSOP) satellites. In addition to awarding seats at the main
event, in 2006 it is also giving players the choice to compete for seats
into other events, such as stud and Omaha. Also in 2006, Poker Rewards will
be awarding one astounding prize to a skilled player – entry into every
single event at the WSOP, plus 60 days accommodations, travel, and $3,500
spending money. Wow.
Poker Rewards offers a very good first deposit bonus – 50% up to $200. The
terms are typical for the industry: 10x raked hands to earn the bonus. This
bonus is awarded in one lump sum upon completion of the raked hands.
Overall, it is not too difficult to earn. One must be dealt cards in a hand
that is raked at least 25 cents. It used to be really easy to earn raked
hands because the Prima Poker rooms were very loose, but since the Expekt
poker room left the network, things have tightened up a bit (people
attribute this to the fact that much of Expekt’s customer base was
Scandinavian and other European, and they have the reputation of being loose
players, but this is only speculation). Poker Rewards displays a pop-up upon
login displaying the player’s current promotion and progress towards
completion, as well as a raked hand counter in the lobby. Unfortunately, the
two are not frequently in sync.
Poker Rewards has its own form of rakeback, which is where it gets the name
Poker Rewards. Customers earn points for play and when they accumulate
enough of them, can redeem them for cash. It can amount to as much as 10%
rakeback.
Poker Rewards Software and Features
Anyone who has played at any of the Prima Poker rooms will be immediately
familiar with the Poker Rewards software. It is very simple, almost Spartan,
with a red, blue, and white color scheme. The lobby is easy to navigate,
with a tree on the left side to select the game type and drill-down folders
for limit and stakes. Table listings show average pot size, percent of
players to the flop, hands per hour, and waiting list size. The waitlist
feature is easy to use, but it can be a bit of a task to remove yourself
from multiple waiting lists, as this can only be done manually.
Poker Rewards takes the simple approach the table graphics – simple and
unadorned. No avatars, no pictures to upload, no drinks, nothing. Just a
plain blue table with placards displaying each player’s screen name and
chips. Easy to read cards, as well, with the standard four-color deck
option. If fancy colors and graphics greatly enhance your poker playing
experience, Poker Rewards will disappoint you. If you could care less and
just want smooth-running tables, give it a whirl.

Perhaps the best feature of the Poker Rewards software is the
mini-table view. Mini view shrinks the table down to a small
rectangle, with only the basic information and graphics displayed.
This feature is fantastic for those who want to play more than one
table at a time, as four tables will easily fit on most standard
monitors.
Statistics and note-taking are available at the tables. Hand
histories can also be requested, as well as stored on your hard
drive, if you so desire. While Poker Rewards has a player search
function, it does not have a buddy list feature. Poker Rewards also
provides an odds calculator and strategy book as free downloads to
its customers.
One downside to the Poker Rewards software is that it can be a bit
resource-intensive when several tables are open. It’s not as bad as
some rooms, but it could be better.
Behind the Scenes at Poker Rewards
Poker Rewards offers customer service via e-mail and a toll free
telephone number. Customer service representatives are generally
helpful and friendly. One problem that does sometimes occur with
Poker Rewards is that some customer service issues need to be
handled by the people at the Prima Poker network, rather than the
poker room itself. Because of this, there can sometimes be
communication issues between Poker Rewards and Prima, and some
customers have, at times, found it frustrating trying to get an
account problem resolved when Poker Rewards does not have the
authority to create a resolution. In the end, most issues get fixed,
especially when the poker room managers get involved – they have
been known to personally take care of things for customers when
necessary.
Poker Rewards uses 128-bit SSL technology and an independently
reviewed Random Card Shuffler. The Shuffler is also reviewed by
independent auditors, with the results published on the Poker
Rewards website.
