Paradise Poker

One of the true forefathers of online poker, Paradise Poker launched in 1999 and lead the way in the industry for several years. More and more competition in the industry, however, lead to Paradise being acquired by Sportingbet, Plc. in 2005. The Paradise Poker player base diminished again in the wake of the UIGEA, which led to a decision for the site to join forces with a larger poker network in early 2007.

The site now resides with Boss Media and the International Poker Network. The games are loose and juicy, and the room boasts some really nice bonuses and guaranteed tournaments. Since the merger with Sportingbet, Paradise Poker has further spiced up their offerings, adding live tournament satellites and special tournaments.

The software provided by Paradise Poker was developed by Boss Media and offers the standard functions familiar to players. The functionality is good, with player notes, multi-currency play and deposit options. The games played at Paradise Poker are mainly Texas Hold'em. There are also plenty of tournaments, guaranteed tournaments and freerolls with good value.

Overall, the traffic volume at Paradise is in the middle segment of the industry. Real-money player statistics as of November 2007 show 2,900 ring-game players at peak hours and 12,000 tournament players at peak hours.

In general, Paradise Poker runs loose and juicy games and good software that plays well despite being on the slow side when it comes to opening new tables. The software is updated frequently to ensure safety and stability, with little downtime as a result.

Competition
Paradise has always had a reputation for tighter play. Even the play money games were tighter at Paradise. This is changing of course, with big time promotions. If Paradise continues to work large promotions and their population rebounds, you can expect fishy players will be sitting at the tables again.

Due to U.S. legislation preventing credit card companies from collecting payments for wagers made by U.S. residents, Paradise Poker has determined to suspend all real-money gaming business in the United States.

Paradise Poker Testimonials

Paradise Poker Reviews:

I think Paradise Poker is the best room I have ever played on. The fish are amazing and the games are always full. I love the fact that I can see the cards I folded while the hand is being played. I cashed out 1,000,000 Action Points the other day for $1000 in cash! Way Cool.

Paradise Poker is one of the best poker sites I have played. It is the only site where I know you are treated with respect. The way the tables are set up and all the tourneys that are available are great with most of them being free. I play nowhere else It is the place to be.

overall ParadisePoker is a great room with a lot of table options and great fishing. Better in the AM (US time) than the PM when more UK players etc are there to fill tables.

The interface is clean. Action is decent. Technical Support is fine. The players are soft and the bonuses are hard to clear.
