Graphics
InterPoker’s graphics are ok. There are no avatars (player characters). which is disappointing as their absence leaves the tables looking a little bare and monotonous. but on the whole the design is clear.
Playability
Table
InterPoker is powered by Cryptologic. meaning it is very reliable. however there are aspects of the software design that seem short-sighted or simply lazy. The biggest problem with Cryptologic software relates to the game play/ chat window. This is where all information about who checked. who folded. who bet what amount and when is displayed. alongside chat text from the players. The problem is simply that the window continuously scrolls down even when you are trying to look back at past actions or comments. This means it is almost impossible to review anything that happened more than a second earlier. In other respects the software is actually fine. with all the usual features that other sites have (such as stats for your play. not taking facilities and so on). They do however need to sort out the gameplay window. and have promised to do so.
Lobby
The lobby area is good with a nice clear lay-out and good colours. Players per flop percentage and average pot size figures are displayed alongside each table. allowing you to gain information about the tables before you sit down.
Player Numbers
Ring
Being part of the Cryptologic network means InterPoker players play alongside players from dozens of other sites. such as Betfair and William Hill. As a result InterPoker always has plenty of games. with real-money ring traffic player numbers regularly topping 2500.
Tournament
Tournament traffic at InterPoker is even better and it is improving rapidly. Currently figures for tournament player numbers peak at around 5000.
Game Variety
With Texas Hold’em. 7 Card Stud. Omaha Hi. and Omaha Hi/Lo InterPoker offers all the most popular poker games. and on top of that all games are offered in dollars ($). pounds sterling (£). and Euros (€).
Rake
The rake of 5% up to a maximum of $3. £3 or €3 – is the industry average – however you should be aware that the £3 maximum rake on the sterling tables is significantly higher than the $3 maximum rake on the dollar tables.
Special Tournaments
InterPoker runs qualifiers to the WSOP as well as the Caribbean Classic. There are also regular guaranteed pot tournaments which includes a monthly $500.000 guaranteed tournament.
