Sun Poker.com Overview





Don't miss Sun Poker's big 1 MILLION GUARANTEED tournament that takes place on October 11, 2009 at 18:00. The buy-in into the big event is $500+35, but of course SunPoker will be running hundreds of satellites to win your seat for as little as 44 cents!

moved from the smaller CryptoLogic network to the ever-expanding iPoker network. There are many rooms making this transition and iPoker has now grown into one of the most popular networks in the world.

SunPoker spreads a wide variety of cash games, starting at $.01/.02 NL Hold’em and going all the way up to $300/$600 Limit Hold’em. For those who like other games, SunPoker offers Pot-Limit Omaha and Omaha Hi/Lo, as well as 5 and 7 Card Stud. The most players can be found at the microstakes, however, this is still plenty of action at the mid-stakes games, while the high-stakes are all but dead.

Sit & Go tournaments at Sun Poker are very popular, with good action across a wide range of buy-ins. Hundreds of players are playing in these tournaments, even during off peak hours. If you’re looking for a place with a wide and diverse player base then Sun Poker might well be for you. The buy-ins start at $0.10 + $0.02 and go up to $5,000 + $200, a pretty nice range at any site. Action is spread surprisingly well throughout the different stakes, although you’ll find that most players congregate at the lower levels. While most of the action can be found at lower stakes, there are still many games running above $50 including a few at the $200 + $15 level. All in all, there’s plenty to offer every player with this S&G selection.

Sun Poker has a solid looking tournament package, with thousands of players involved around the clock. The Freerolls start at $0, which is a great way to skip the “Play Money” scenario and play free games for actual winnings. After that, their lowest buy-in is $0.50 + $0.05, while their highest is $500 + $30. There were players at almost every level of tournaments, with only the very highest stakes looking a bit barren. The Freerolls attract the most players, while most other players gather in the low stakes tournaments. The range of tournaments on Sun Poker really seems to have brought in the crowds, and will be exciting to see how they can build on their success in the future.

Sun Poker offers a VIP program that rewards players for continuously playing at their cash games. Upon playing your first cash game, you are automatically enrolled into the VIP program at the starting ‘Mars Level’. Levels are determined by ‘Sun Point’ accumulation. There are five levels and each advancing level accumulates Sun Points faster than the previous one. Advancing through the ranks also means access to more exclusive freerolls. Levels are open to recalculation each month but, unlike other poker rooms, it is up to you whether or not your VIP level is correctly ranked. If you have earned enough points within a month's time to advance to the next level, you must send an email to support in order to have your level upgraded.

Poker Room Review rakebake v bonus by dabill on 06 Feb 2008
Interface:  3/5    Action:  2/5    Fish:  2/5    Bonuses:  4/5    Support:  4/5   
ive beeb playing at sun a couple of months,partly because of the rakeback program.however beginning of january i thought i would reload with $200 to take advantage of the monthly bonus plus 50% rakeback.after reaching 500 p/points $200 bonus was credited to my account at this point there were about 10 days to wait for my rakeback, so i went to ladbrokes, where earning points for rakeback/freerolls is very easy. the rakeback at sun arrived in my a/cc 5february.however it was no where near what i was expecting,as sun explained in the email all bets used to clear a bonus (which is most of the time)do not count towards your rakeback dollars.i did not see any explanation of this on their website before hand.i was under thr impression if you reload each month you received 50% of your rake, plus your bonus if cleared.the reality is you get a small % of rakeback if you reload and clear your monthly bonus.i hope this will be of help to those of you who are enticed by such bonuses/rakeback as i was with sunpoker rakeback 50%?.afterall the pokersites ambiguous marketing is for a reason!
Poker Room Review New Rakeback by DeezNutz on 15 Jun 2007
Interface:  4/5    Action:  3/5    Fish:  5/5    Bonuses:  5/5    Support:  5/5   
I for one am excited for this new rakeback scale coming on July 1st. I play a lot of hands there and for the mid to larger player, the rakeback is going to be significantly more money back in my pocket. With the $1,000 bonus and $500 no deposit bonus, it's going to be easy to come out way ahead with this poker room every month. I just wish they had more high limit games available at non-peak times. That's about my only complaint with this room. Anyone looking for a great room that's not one of the Big boys, this should be your first stop. And be sure to get rakeback with FTR before signing up at Sun. It's too easy!
Poker Room Review Sun Poker Review by Frank on 15 Jun 2007
Interface:  2/5    Action:  2/5    Fish:  3/5    Bonuses:  4/5    Support:  3/5   
What? Sun Poker just decided to change their rakeback policies to screw existing rakeback players? I don't get it. Things were so good for a long time. Supposed to occur on July 1, 2007 - so we'll see what happens, I'm not sure exactly what's going to happen, but I did receive a heads up. I hate to see sudden changes in the terms and agreements, especially when they're meant to benefit the poker room and put more money in their pockets. However, Sun Poker is a good place to play, with great bonuses, reloads, service, etc... I'm on the fence whether to continue playing there, I guess it all depends on what happens to my rakeback over the coming months. Good Luck!
