After a recent move to the iPoker network in late 2008, Sun Poker has joined a heavily trafficked network which prides itself on customer satisfaction. They offer a wide range of games for both cash and tournament players, well presented and flawless software and great customer support.

Games Available

Sun Poker offers a wide range of cash games to suit all players’ bankrolls. For No Limit and Pot Limit tables, stakes start at $0.01/$0.02 and advance to $100/$200. Fixed limit stakes range from $0.05/$0.10 up to $300/$600.

They also offer a variety of different game types. Currently available at Sun Poker is Texas Hold’em, Omaha, Omaha Hi Lo, Seven Card Stud and Five Card Stud.

The iPoker Network is known for their loose cash games, so any solid player should have no trouble making a profit from their desired limit. As you would expect, the lower limits are packed full of bad players and newcomers to the game. As the limits increase, the amount of fish minimizes, with the higher limits filled with many European professional players.

Software

Sun Poker uses the software developed by Playtech for the iPoker Network. Being a part of the industry leading network brings many advantages, one of which is the use of the clean, smooth software.

It has been developed with ease of usability in mind, meaning the software is very easy to navigate through, whether you’re a first time player or a seasoned user of the site.

The user navigates around the site using the side bar, featuring all the different games available. Once you have selected a type of game, the list of open rooms matching that specification is shown in the main part of the lobby. Here you are shown all the information you need to choose your table. You are given the table name, stake, amount of players at the table, average pot, players per flop percentage, hands per hour and the current waiting list.

Also available from the lobby is the cashier, support, access to the latest promotions and options so you can customize your playing experience.

The table graphics are also very solid and clean. Although it doesn’t offer a simple table image that sites such as Pokerstars do, Sun Poker provides a more social, fun looking table. Each player can choose their own avatar from a selection provided, which gives the game more of a personalised feel. The animations are crisp and common features such as four colour deck and auto muck are all available.

Bonus Conditions

Sun Poker offers all first time depositors a 100% match bonus up to $500. However, if you use the bonus code BESTSUN when registering, you’ll be awarded an improved match bonus worth up to $600.

After making your deposit, you have 90 days in which to fully clear it before the bonus expires. To clear the bonus, you must accumulate 1000 points per $1. After every 1000 points you earn, $1 is automatically added into your account. The speeds at which you earn points depend on your VIP level, with anything from 0.15 to 135.45 points available to earn each hand.

Tournaments Available

Sun Poker hosts a very wide range of tournaments, sure to please all players. Buy-ins range from as little as $0.50 up to several thousand dollars, normally for special tournaments. They provide several guaranteed tournaments each day; the most notable is the weekly $250,000. Sun Poker also hosts many satellite tournaments to major tournaments, giving players the chance of a lifetime.

Another major attraction is the jackpot Sit & Go’s in which players can win tens of thousands of dollars for winning a certain amount of tournaments in a row.
