Titan Poker

Titan Poker runs on PlayTech software and is part of the iPoker network. It is on of the largest skins in the iPoker network, and consequently also offers som of the best promotions. The software features are very good, with a rich graphical interface. Playability is smooth and quick, due to a recent software upgrade. The game variety is excellent as far as stake variety is concerned, although Stud poker players will not find any games here, as only Texas Hold`em and Omaha are offered.

A generous first deposit match bonus of 100% up to $500 is offered by Titan Poker. However this bonus is only released after meeting raked hand requirements, and then in $5 increments, which is way below average. It can also take a long time to earn this bonus on the lower limit tables where most newcomers are likely to play. To balance that there are some very lucrative freerolls and sit & go tournaments. These sit & go`s are linked to a number of jackpots for consecutive tournaments won.

On the glamour side, Titan Poker offers the chance to play against one of the world`s top swimsuit models, Joanna Krupa. This Million Mania tournament offers $1 million in prize money to boot. Other tournaments can win you a seat at the World Poker Tour. Competition is not stiff, although most of the newcomers play on micro-limit tables, so it can take a while to turn a profit.

Rake:
Standard 5% rake, with the rake limit lower at small stakes tables, and in games where there are less players. No rake if flop not seen.

Traffic Stats:
This is a pretty well-trafficked site, with traffic peaking at around 5,000 players in the money games. As usual, this traffic peaks during tournaments.

Software And Features:
The software has good graphics and is very playable. There are cool features like a Buddy List, so you can track when certain players are online. Full game history is available, with graphs displayed, and player notes can be taken. A possible drawback is that the rich graphics can be a little distracting. There is also a full screen option.

Supported Games And Limits:
Both Limit and No-Limit Hold`em are offerd, as well as Omaha and Omaha Hi/Lo. There are no Stud games. Limits range from 1c/2c micro-limit games to $10/$20 on the No-Limit tables and $50/$100 on the Limit games.

Deposit And Withdrawal Options:
Deposit options: Credit Card, Click2Pay, FirePay, NETeller, InstaCash, OnDemandFunds, Moneybookers, Citadel, myCitadel, Wire Transfer, INSTADEBIT, EcoCard, Bank Draft, UseMyBank, CentralCoin, PaySafeCard, ewalletXpress. Withdrawals: NETeller, FirePay, Moneybookers, InstaDebit, EcoCard, bank draft express and wire transfer.

Competition:
The majority of players are European and there are a lot of beginners on the site, but because there are so many micro-limit tables, it can be difficult to make money out of them. Competition overall is not that strong, although it does even out in the higher stakes games.

Player Services:
Titan Poker offers telephonic, email and Live Online support. A nice touch is the Live Help window which appears in the banking area. Turnaround time is therefore good, and support staff are generally knowledgeable.

Downsides:
Deposit bonus released only in $5 increments, subject to meeting rake requirements
Graphics can feel a little too flashy and can be a bit too busy
Fish live in micro-limit games
