Very small stake ring and tournaments. This is only 'nuts' if you are a new / low limit player ' it's a good learning site. The $1 multi table tournaments are rake free. |
|
Beats (Suck): |
|
The card graphics are blurry, like the contrast has been turned up too high. Not comfortable on the eyes during a long session. Constant 'please wait' display messages appear as you navigate around the site and the login process seems fairly slow. Extremely low user base with very little action at anything much above $0.10 tables. |

Everest Poker Review
is one of the lesser known poker rooms.
It is small and independent, not a part of any of the larger poker networks, but (according to the marketing)
growing in users rapidly. Everest Poker claims it is aimed at Europe, Asia and US markets – but being internet based this is
largely irrelevant.
The client interface suggests that it supports Holdem, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, 7 Card Stud, and 7 Card Hi/Lo. However,
apart from Holdem, all of the other tabs are greyed out. This is the case for both real money & play money,
and cash and tournament games. So it looks like they haven’t quite gotten around to implementing those other games
yet, suggesting the site is still almost in a construction stage. As you navigate around the site,
there are other places that are greyed out or say “coming soon” (such as the potential player points area),
which again shows the infancy of the site. It does, however, appear extremely well put together and
could definitely become a very popular poker room if it gets more users.
All of the usual banking facilities are available, and you can deposit as little as $5 with no fee –
just about the lowest minimum deposit we have come across on any site. For beginners, you can’t get much
better than this in terms of being able to dip your toe in the water cheaply. Deposit methods are the regular ones,
Neteller, FirePay, Credit/Debit Cards, Eco, Moneybookers, IPS, Paysafe. The financial transactions are
managed by IBS (Internet Billing Services), a very well established and trusted organisation. Currency is
restricted to $USD only.

Everest Poker Software Interface/Usability
The lobby
is excellent and contains all of the information you need in a very easy to use format. Your account balance is there on screen, as is a list of all the tables in a scrollable and sortable list – no messing around with selecting your limit or table sizes, just scroll to the one you want. There is a “seat finder” option as well which lets you select your limit, stake and table size, and it will find you an empty seat – a nice feature, and neater than having to find a full table and joining a waiting list. When highlighting a table in the list you are instantly shown all the people on it, including their stack size, a feature which should really be standard by now on all poker room lobbies.
There are however a few bad points. The login seemed very slow compared to other sites – and when you navigate round the site, you often get windows popping up with annoying “please wait” timers. You soon get used to these though, but they can get frustrating especially when you hit the wrong button.
The table view is not so nice. At first glance it looks nice and neat – but then you look at the cards. They are blurry, small, and look as though somebody has turned the brightness and contrast up too high. Playing for 2 hours was uncomfortable on the eyes. The layout of the table and the graphics are not bad, and the ability to spin the table is quite clever. The chat is nice and clear, and all the usual functions such as 4 colour deck and auto muck are available.
There is no poker tracker support, and with the client in its current format this is unlikely to ever appear. Hand history is limited to you reading back what is in the chat window, and the card suits are represented by graphics rather than text. They are not stored on your hard-drive and not available by email or any other way. Because the user base is so small at present, don’t hold your breath for external application support any time soon.
The table has a “your statistics” option which shows you fairly comprehensive stats on the percentage of times that you have played, checked, check-raised, called, bet, raised, re-raised, folded and won at the point of deal, flop, turn and river.
Another fairly novel feature is the “Poker Tutorial” area, which trains you how to play poker from scratch. This site is clearly aimed at the beginner, evident by the heavy promotion of this tutorial function.

Everest Poker Room Action
At the higher limits on
there is hardly any action at all. Look on the $0.25 tables, actually let’s make that singular – table – there were 7 out of 10 players. I will repeat that – ONE TABLE with 7 players. At $0.50, there were 3 tables – one with 10 people on it and two empty ones. The story is similar all the way up to the top, with as many people playing at $5/$10 blinds (ie, one or two tables).
Tournaments are very quiet. You will find action only really at the lowest stakes, which for limit tournaments is $0 (yes, free) with a guaranteed prize pool of $0.10. Move over to no limit and the single table SNGs start at $0.04+$0.01. By the time you get up to even $1.00 tournaments, you have to wait quite some time for a full table. Once you get higher than $1.00, the players die off almost completely. In the MTT area, the only tournaments that get busy are again the freerolls. 367 players registered for a no limit tournament where the prize was a “bronze token”. They also have freerolls where you can win “bonus money” (that you have to clear), and the occasional $30 prize fund freeroll. MTTs that require you to pay an entry fee were extremely quiet. A $2 MTT had attracted 4 entrants by the time it was scheduled to start, and a $10 had only 1 entrant signed up.
So in summary – if you are looking for action at anything other than extreme low level micro limits, this site is not for you.

Everest Poker Customer and Technical Support
This area definitely needs major improvement. A simple email query took 24 hours for a reply, and the reply was generic and did not answer my question. There is no telephone number listed in the “help” section of Everest Poker, nor any live chat feature. Therefore if you have an urgent issue, there isn’t much you can do other than send an email using the “web form” and wait for a reply the next day. This is very poor.

Everest Poker Ease of Game, Ease of Making Money, Fish Rating
The level of play is very loose. Down at the $0.02 no limit tables, you can see flop% of 70-80 regularly, with average pot sizes over $1. Move up to $0.10, and the flop% is still a very fishy average of 50% with pot sizes around the $3-$4 average area.
Because the site is clearly aimed at beginners, you find a lot of them there as you would expect. Obviously this means bad beats and suckouts, and you can forget trying to get somebody off a pot by giving them bad odds, but if you open up 5 tables and play a good solid game there are plenty of people ready to hand you their stack as long as they have bottom pair and a low – hang on what’s a kicker again?
The tournaments are the same story – with entry fees starting as low as $0.04 + $0.01 for single table SNGs, the fish rating is almost obscene and you will see all-in moves and calls with any two cards higher than a Joker. The freeroll MTT’s with small prize funds are the same and there is very little skill involved.

Everest Poker Bonuses and Promotions
The signup bonus is simple – you get $200 free for opening an account even if you don’t deposit any money. The cool thing about this bonus is you will earn $200 whether you deposit $20 or $200. However, you do have to deposit funds and play with that in order to clear the bonus which trickles in to your cash account in $1 increments. This $200 flat bonus is exclusive to FTR so make sure you sign up with the links on this page and use the Everest Poker Bonus Code FTR200 when signing up! If you do not correctly signup with the links on this page the bonus will not be applied and the code will not work. You must enter the bonus code within 7 days of registration. Make sure you enter the correct bonus code, FTR200, for the improved $200 bonus!
To clear the bonuses, you have to collect Summit Points at the rate of $1 per 14.28 Summit Points earned. So to clear your FTR $200 free bonus, you need to earn a total of 2856 Summit Points. If you play at higher limits this isn’t too bad, but down at the $0.01 games you would probably have to play for about 17 years before clearing the bonus. You have 30 days to clear this bonus before it becomes invalid. Tournament entry fees do count towards wagering, but only the ones where a house fee is charged.
They also have a friend-referral bonus where you receive $50 for each friend that signs up based on a referral from you (up to a maximum of 100 per 180 days). The terms and conditions are fairly lengthy but there is no mention of the friend having to deposit money or play a certain number of hands before the bonus is released to you, all you have to do is clear the bonus in the same way as the initial deposit bonus.
With all the possible bonuses available to Everest poker players, and the ability to "stack" these bonuses, you can set up your own
Everest Poker Rakeback program yourself!

 “Everest Poker Bandits” by Mark, 23 Aug 2007 |
Interface:  Action:  Support:  Fish: Bonus: |
STAY AWAY! I made a deposit, no problem.
But on my third cashout I get demand for
ID verification. I had no problem with
this when it came to sending copy of
driving licence and utillity bill, but
they wanted copy of my credit card when
in fact I used moneybookers to deposit.
When I told them this, they then ask for
screen shot of moneybookers account,
which I sent them, but I edited out my
balance and transaction history, as they
had said that they only wanted to see my
name and email address linked to this
account and my balance etc was none of
their business. they refused to let me
access withdrawals untill I sent them
unaltered screen shot, which I
reluctantly did. So what do they do?
they block my access to my account
completly, and do not reply to any
emails I send them. From the looks of
the previous post, it looks like Everest
Poker have started a nice little scam
for themselves. Well they stole over
$400 of my money. BE WARNED! |

Interface:  Action: Support: Fish:  Bonus: |
my .02, as it seems this article hasn´t
been updated for a while.
the software is still functional, they
had an update for the cards and it´s now
possible to play more than 2 hours
without getting eye-cancer. the avatars
are a bit annoying and on 4 positions at
the table you can hardly see the button
behind them. turn them off.
the number of players online isn´t
displayed, but i´ll estimate it close to
titan poker. the days of only one
running $25NL table are over, now you´ll
find up to 50 (6max and full ring)
the fact, that the tables are rotating
and you´re sittin on the same seat at
every table makes multitabling much more
easier, it takes a short look and you
dont have to look for your seat when an
active table pops up.
the competition at the low-stakes is
(even for that limit) really soft. in
peak hours there´s lots of raising and
all-in action going on, you´ll see hands
shown down i wouldn´t even have pushed
in my first party-play-money games a
year ago. lean back, take their money.
sng and mtt players have to adjust their
early stages play, as the initial M here
is 66 (i remember party was 33) and you
have to get used to start with 100
chips.
one BIG NUT: since i´m playing there (6
months now) one bonus i chasing the next
one. i received $100 sign up, followed
by 25, 75 and right now i´m clearing
another $100. i don´t ask why, it´s free
cash.
the technical support is great, you´ll
get fast and detailed replies.
two beats left: u cannot resize the
tables, which is really annoying with
more than one table runnig and my last
vashout into neteller took 48 hours.

| “A Hidden Gem” by Bandana_Man, 29 Jan 2006 |

I do not play cash tables... STT, H2H,
or MTT. That having been said, here is
my take on Everest Poker.
Overlook the clunky lobby interface, its
functional. They have a "filter." Name
the stakes, game, and number of people.
It lists those tables.
At the table lose the avatars, otherwise
it's too crowded. The table rotates so
you are at bottom center, no more,
"Where the hell am I?" when your MTT
table breaks.
The software functions well. The slider
is not on steroids or in warp drive. You
can type in a bet. Bets and chip stacks
are plainly shown. When "folding" they
animate the pocket cards as being mucked
on the table.
No problems cashing out, less than 24
hours into my Neteller. Never dealt with
tech support so I dunno.
As far as finding games well, I play
STT's, H2H, and MTT's I never have a
problem finding something going on.
Bonuses, nothing to shout about, but the
best feature, the one that keeps me
going back: you NEVER make an actual
cash deposit to make a cashout. You
don't have to play a Freeroll with 500
fish only to bust out after 2 hours and
miss the money.
They offer a free buy in 10 top limit
game. Pays 5 cent, 3 cent, 2 cent for
1-3. Take your nickel, go to the 5 cent
NL ten top. Win that, go to the dime
table or even the twenty cent table. Win
that... go to the fifty cent table. Win
that and go to the two dollar table. Get
the idea? I started on the free table,
played 6 hours and cashout $25.00
Not a lot of money... but I never made a
deposit. I had a great time and some
very challenging games. You could take
your winning and go to the cash tables
but if yer thing is STT's then Everest
is a blast. They also offer daily MTT
for $1 and there are always 200-300 or
more in that. Start at the free table
and earn you entry fee.
The only drawback is that you have to
get used to starting with 100 chips. The
blinds start at .50/1. Just move the
decimal and think that its 1000 with
blinds starting at
5/10 if you like, but trust me, once you
get used to it, it makes playing NL a
whole new game.
Once you are past the free table, the
blinds go up 10 minutes, very generous
compared to some places. The only place
with blinds longer is Poker Stars with
their 15 minute blinds (that I know
of).
The other biggie is their "Satellite
Tokens." Most place, you win a
satellite, you are tied into a certain
tourney, at a certain time... win that,
you are again forced to play when they
decide in the semifinal and so on.
You play for "Satellite Tokens." These
are used to play in a tourney of your
choosing at a day and time convenient
for you. They do not expire. You even
may accumulate them and then use a group
of them to buy into a big buy in
Sattelite. Imagine starting completely
free table and work your way to a $100
Satelite to the WSOP. Imagine winning
that. You think you can play poker?
Start with ZERO and win your way to the
WSOP.
Everest Poker is a hidden gem. You
simply must try it. |
