Cake Poker Review

Cake Poker like most other texas holdem poker rooms offer freerolls increasingly often, in this case known as free cake! Freerolls are tournaments that allow players to win real money without investing money into a buy in.

Cake Poker has three main freerolls that occur often during regular schedule. The first of which is a New Depositor freeroll for all those having just registered with Cake Poker. To be eligible, one has to make a first time deposit of more than $50. Not only does Cake Poker give one a 100% money bonus on the initial investment, but enter you into the tourney free of cost. The prize pool is a generous $500 and is held most Saturdays at about two P.M.

The Second of the freerolls on offer is the $1000 bankroll. This is a little different in that one has to earn a seat through the various $1000 bankroll freeroll satellites. These satellites occur regularly during regular play, and are often relatively short handed. A win in one of these will get you through to the weekly tourney which is of course $1000 guaranteed.

The last and probably the most prestigious of all the freerolls held by Cake is the ‘Freeroll into Millions’. They offer them during regular play, and will generally be multi-table tourneys. A win will get one into a seat valued up to $320, and entering you into over a $1 000 000 in guaranteed tournaments. Freeroll into Millions $250k semi final is open to freeroll qualifiers. Direct entry is available to all players for $40. One seat in our $250,000 Guarantee will be awarded for every $320 in the prize pool.

The money one wins during freeroll tournaments will be transferred directly into your Players Real money account. Cake poker insist that one earns a minimum of 2 Gold Chips through ring play or tourneys before being able to cash out the money. Gold Points are prizes awarded for time at the tables and loyalty to players at Cake Poker. As per their regular withdrawal conditions, Cake Poker does not allow transfers or withdrawals to take place if under the $50 limit.

Cake Poker offers all games such as ring, tournaments and sit and go’s. Players can be rewarded with cash; prizes and free tournament play which I have mentioned above. Cake Poker provides over 5 Million Dollars in monthly tournament guarantees. It works well with its simple interface that is extremely user friendly. Getting started and settled in does not take long at all. There are about 3000 players registered with Cake from around the world. It is a global poker room based in the U.S. offering 24/7 Texas hold’em and Omaha action. Cake Poker is more than willing to accept players from the U.S.A! There are many different forms of Texas hold’em. One can play in the usual ring games, multi table tourneys, satellites, freerolls, Sit and Go’s, shootouts or heads up play.

There are also various Christmas season special tourneys. There is a team going to the Aussie millions fully paid for by Cake. One can enter through the various tournaments that they are running on a weekly basis.

Cake Poker offers a 3D game play interface rather than the traditional 2D design. It is far more interesting and entertaining to play at. Cake Poker has clearly taken quite some time to make sure that the graphics are up to scratch and that the game runs easily. The difference is amazing. There are various settings one can choose from depending on the type of game one is playing be it No Limit or Limit. Its large action buttons make for easy game play and no mistakes in selection. Players can choose from a range of characters at the table. There are also other features such as chat, table cascading, pre-action buttons, game tools, notes, stats, and of course hand history.

By clicking on a tournament of interest in the main Tournament area, one will be able to view the Tournament Lobby. All of the relevant tournament information is there, including the number of entrants, type of tournament and most importantly, the prize details. The Tournament Information button, located on the bottom right of the Tournament Lobby will detail the prize schedule and what one can win in the tourney. If you’re playing in a rebuy and add-on event, note the payout structure will not be announced until the final prize pool is reached (after the add-on period) as I mentioned earlier.

The tournaments are relatively weighted towards the first three places. In the smaller multi table tourneys( 120 or so) the first three places get 50% or more of the winnings. In a typical single table tourney the first three are the only ones paid with 50% going to the winner. Quite an incentive to finish at the top!

Cake Poker is a very good online poker room that is extremely hassle free and simple. Why don’t you try it today?
