ActionPoker Room Review


Action Poker.com Overview



is owned and operated by Ecom Enterprises, a subsidiary of Playsafe Holding AS, which is a publicly listed company in Norway (OTC). It's a non-US room, so American players (and also Turkish players) need read no further. One of the more interesting things about this room is that it offers games popular in Asia such as Guts Poker, Chinese Poker, Big 2 Poker and Pan (Panguingue), which are not normally found on Western rooms. They also provide the usual Texas Hold'em, Omaha Hi/Lo, 7 Card Stud, and Blackjack.

For players unfamiliar with the exotic games they have a complete "how to" section on their website. These can be a lot of fun to play and can be a nice break from Hold'em. Nevertheless, you will still find the most action huddled around the NLHE tables, specifically low-mid stakes. There are always 25, 50 and 100nl tables going at most times of the day and a few higher stakes. If you're in for nosebleed stakes, Action Poker probably isn't for you.

Tournaments aren't exactly the bread and butter of ActionPoker. In fact, they have one of the weakest turnouts of any online site we’ve seen, although they are still trying to build up their player base. Their Sit and Go tourneys range from microstake buy-ins of $0.10+$0.01 up to $200+$10, but don't except to see much action past the $50 level. As for MTTs, you're lucky to get a tournament with over 100 participants. The average buy-in is very low and at the time of our last login the highest available was a $10k guaranteed tournament with rebuys at $30+$3, but that was scheduled for two weeks in the future.

Freerolls are another matter. Nearly half the MTTs on offer at ActionPoker are freerolls with fields of 1,000 players or more. That means Action Poker is a nice place to start if you don't have money to deposit.

Playing at Action Poker earns you Player Option Points (POPs). POPs are earned by paying raked games at cash tables or by tournament fees. For every 10 cents in rake you pay, you earn 1 POP and $1 in tournament fees earns you 10 POP. There are a few things you can do with your POPs, including exchanging them for real money. Currently, the largest exchange available is 20,000 POPs for $100, which after doing math equals out to about $2000 in rake for $100. It might not seem like much, but is better than nothing. There are also special tournaments you can enter with just POPs.

Poker Room Review Action Poker is Fun! by David on 26 Nov 2007
Interface:  4/5    Action:  4/5    Fish:  5/5    Bonuses:  4/5    Support:  4/5   
Saw an advertise for Action Poker and just thought I would look into it. They have a 100% match bonus so I loaded a little bit to play some low stakes. The network is not that bad, they had a decent selection of table a the low-stakes holdem tables. They have some weird games like guts and Chinese poker - I do not know how to play those yet but will look into them. The fish is the key thing - I thought these tables were really easy to beat. I'm going to stick around and make money and clear my bonus... maybe play around in some of those other games just to learn and have some fun.

This poker room and network has gotten better - there is more action at Action Poker! Now they have plenty of tables at the low stakes so you can multi-table. The competition is pretty nitty and straightforward, so take your shark game and eat it up.
