Current Signup Code - apfrake
Download Power Poker from the banner below, use the sign-up code "apfrake" and receive a first time Deposit Bonus of 110% up to $600!
Also included in the sign-up deal will be a lifetime rakeback of 33% for any rake achieved in tournaments, Sit N Go's or at the cash
tables. For example, if you earn $999 in rake for a given month, your player account will then be credited with $333. Rakeback is paid
monthly in one lump sum. Please note that players are permitted to have only one rakeback account on the Cake Network but this will
not affect your deposit bonus.
You have 90 days from when your Pending Bonus appears in your account, to earn the 110% deposit bonus.
Software -
good
Excellent software which generally runs well. You will rarely have any problems with disconnections and time outs with any standard
internet connection.
Playability -
very good
Very easy to understand and use at the table with buttons and actions clearly marked. The lobby is clean and well designed although,
some tournament types can be a little hard to find for new users. Having said this, the learning curve is fast and shouldn't provide
any real issues.
Traffic -
good
The Cake Network is growing fast and is proving very popular with online users. For a relatively new site, there is a large amount of
traffic for Power Poker's ring games due to the sharing of all network players.
Support -
very good
Usually a fast and friendly response with clear answers. Most of the better deposit and withdrawal options are available with cash
outs being simple and problem free.
Summary -
very good
Although Power Poker are an EU based site, they are open to all players worldwide including those from the US. They are one of the newer
sites attached to the fast growing Cake Network and benefit greatly from the large player base which specializes
in ring table action and excellent guaranteed tournaments. They offer a great variety of game formats which should fulfill most
players needs. There are plenty of promotions each month which are often based around the collection of Gold Cards & Chips.
Always fun and innovative. The room is endorsed by professional poker player Ilari "Ziigmund" Sahamies so there are also regular
Ziigmund promotions on offer which often involve playing with Ilari at the tables. I also like the fact that Power Poker have gone for
a different look from the majority of Cake Network sites. This adds up to a more indivdual feel without losing any of the Network benefits.
The action at the table makes achieving the deposit bonus all the easier and with the 33% rakeback offer for all our depositors, this is
great value for money to all concerned.
Extra Information :
Earning your Bonus : When you have a bonus in your account, you can earn it back by playing in real money ring or tournament games. The details on how you can earn your bonus are detailed below.
Real Money Ring Games : For each dollar that is raked at a table where you are dealt cards, you will earn one Frequent Player Point (FPP). We are accurate to the penny, so if your table was raked $1.25, you will receive 1.25 FPP or if your table was raked $3.00, you will receive 3 FPP. Each FPP is worth $.06 towards your bonus.
Real Money Tournaments : For each dollar worth of tournament fees you pay, you’ll earn 7 Frequent Player Points (FPP) for them once you’re done in the tournament. Just like Real Money Games, we are accurate to the penny, so for a $0.50 tournament fee, you will receive 3.5 FPP.
Bonus Payouts : Your Deposit Bonus sits in your Pending Bonus account, waiting for you to earn it. Your bonus will be paid back in $10 increments (or less if the last amount in your pending bonus is less than $10).
