Pretty nice software and I like the

True Poker Rakeback Review by PokerFanatic on 12 Oct 2005

rating 5 / 5
True Poker is a great site for players
looking for a different type of
software. True poker with it 3d Graphics
and player talk is easy on a poker
players eyes. The size of the tables are
small enough after removing the logs
windows to 4 table no over lap on a 17"
1280 x 1024 monitor. Over all, I think
this site has a lot of potential to
become a great place to do business.

NUTS: True Poker is one of just a handful of sites to accept US-based poker players. Their smaller site and lack of mass multi-tabling tends to bring in more fish than regulars making the games quite soft. They have both rakeback and bonuses which are available through FTR. The bonus is not huge but it is quite easy to clear. Finally, True Poker is a safe, trusted site with up to date security protocols and the backing of the Kahnawake Gaming Commission.
-
BEATS: Players can only run up to four cash game tables at once and can also only play one tournament at a time. The tables are not resizable and the chat pop out screen can be quite annoying. Their software has fallen behind the times and is not up to par with other major poker sites. True Poker has their own network and consequently has a hard time getting a lot of players. On week nights there are sometimes less than 500 players online.

True Poker Rakeback Review
True Poker offers 27% plus 5% for players you sign up to the program. I don't know many better deals available! Customer service for the rakeback program is swift and a response is given to any questions you have in a reasonable amount of time. Payments are made smoothly into your account. No matter how much you have made that month it will be deposited to your account, which is also a plus given that some places you have to make over $50 that month for them to make payments.
Why FTR Recommends THIS Rakeback Program
FTR has done a great deal of research on the subject of rakeback programs. We have seen other sites offer it and then take it away. This is one reason we have been very careful with this type of
project. Even if FTR comes crashing down next week, you will still get your rake back every month.
We also did not want to get involved in a shady rakeback program that was prohibited by the poker room.
For example, Party Poker DOES NOT ALLOW RAKEBACKS, whether on their site or one of their "skins". These skins
include Party Poker, Empire Poker, PokerNow, Eurobet, and Intertops Poker. None of these poker rooms
can offer their players any rakeback.
We don't want to offer something only to take it back.
Players have logins to a console on a TruePoker server where they
can check stats and see how much rake they have generated.
You also can ADD to your rakeback amount! This is a great opportunity for you to get 5% of the rakes from people who sign up under you!

True Poker.com Overview
Formerly known for their attempt to create a 3D poker experience, True Poker has evolved into a more conventional member of the online gaming community. Their servers has seen modest growth since the decision to render their games exclusively in two dimensions, allowing players of a more conventional bent to cash in on their enormous poker bonus.
At True Poker, you will find no-limit, pot-limit, and limit Hold'em ranging from $.05 - $.10 up to $15 - $30. They also offer Omaha and Omaha Hi/Lo, but good luck getting a game running. Around 95% of the players are playing hold'em, and most no-limit.
Their SNGs range from $.90+$.09 up to $95.69 with the high stakes games mainly being of the heads-up variety. They offer 10 player, 6 max, and heads up; also games such as winner take all and turbos. Just make sure you notice a game is winner take all before you register! If you like playing SnGs, just plainly stay away. Traffic is very very slim, and mainly around the $10 - $20, and rarely higher than that. MTTs are better than when they initially launched but that isn't saying much since they didn't even have a MTT schedule! They offer various tournaments throughout the day, with buy-ins ranging from $3 + $.5 up to $50 + $5.
All Rakeback is controlled though links and cookies. So be sure to clear your cookies before following the link for rakeback. The link is at the bottom of this page as a banner. Once you have followed the link it will take you to True Poker's home page. Download the software - the link to the download is on a column at the left of the page. There is a link which says “Download software”.
It's easy to over look the link and click on a different link. If you accidentally click on a different link please use the rakeback link again to get back to the site before downloading. Once you leave the home page you will no longer be tracked by FTR. You must go straight to download after following the rakeback link. Once you have downloaded the site you must register a screen name and register your real information to make a real money deposit. If you have done the steps correctly, after registering you personal information you should receive an e-mail from True Poker telling you about you rakeback and where to view your stats.
True Poker.com Software Interface/Usability
In days past, True Poker was known for their 3D tables. Recently, they've ditched this sometimes cumbersome system in favor of a more conventional appearance. Not surprisingly, this has resulted in an increase in their player traffic. Much of the old design themes and colors are still present, but things have become much easier to navigate.
The lobby at TruePoker is a bit cluttered, but overall it gets the job done. Users can sort out their preferred games using a number of columns and tabs. The stakes are clearly displayed, which makes it easy to get around.
One rather disturbing aspect is this – Rather than posting both their tournaments and their ring games in a single window, TruePoker forces players to navigate through two separate windows to view these game types. This can be confusing and frustrating, since most players will be used to an integrated single window system.
TruePoker.com Poker Room Action
At True Poker there is just not a lot of action outside their NL Hold’em cash games. They do offer games such as Omaha and Omaha Hi/Lo but there might be 1-2 microstakes games running during most times and it does not get much better on the weekends. On weeknights they will typically have 2-3 NL games running from $.05/$.10 up to $1/$2. Their high stakes limits such as $5/$10 are typically reserved for heads-up play and even then do not get a lot of action.
Unfortunately their SNG and tournament scene is not much better. Even their lower buy-in events have trouble getting 100+ players. Their weekly $7,500 guarantee is the biggest event and runs on Sunday afternoons. It is not a bad tournament because it usually has some nice overlay with a $55 entry fee. Before you sign up at True Poker make sure you understand their software only allows you to play one tournament at a time. For some reason players can play up to 4 cash game tables or even 3 with a tourney at the same time, but when it comes to MTTs you can only one-table.
Until True Poker joins a bigger network with other skins we do not foresee a big jump in traffic. With out of date software and a small tournament schedule there is not enough attracting new players at this time.
TruePoker's Ease of Game, Ease of Making Money, Fish Rating
It is easy to make money with the fish that were at the 1/2 to 3/6 tables, but variance is high. If you can play for the long run then your pay offs can be huge. The average player here plays poorly to absolutely horrible. There are some sharks, but they stick out like a sore thumb! The whole 3D software does attract more fish, so you will find some very odd plays throughout all limits. While railing their highest stake game offer, $5 - $10 nl, we considered taking a shot because the players were so bad! If you are a good player you should be able to just crush the tables here. Our fish rating on a 1 to 5 scale, 5 being the best, is a 4.
TruePoker.com Bonuses and Promotions
See our True Poker Bonus page for details on clearing your bonus.
Besides the rakeback offered (described above), True Poker offers a 100% to $1000 initial deposit bonus! Unfortunately, we have yet to see them do any reloads. However with 27% of your rake and 5% of players you sign up to rakeback programs rake you can well make up for reloads. If you sign up 10 players you are getting a combined 50% rakeback PLUS your own 27% for a total of 77% rakeback (50% from friends and 27% of your own)! This is quite the deal, so get your friends going too!
The bonus is one of the best in terms of how it is earned. Simply play real money cash tables and you will earn $1 of the bonus for every 500 FPPs collect. This will add up pretty quickly though as each $.01 raked generates 1 FPP.

True Poker.com Customer and Technical Support
Outside of rakeback, we haven't had any experience with the True Poker Customer or Technical support because we never needed to. That says a lot. If we don't have to complain to costumer service or Technical support about something then it rates decently high in our books. We have talked to the rakeback technical support and they were extremely helpful and responded relatively quickly given it was a weekend. We e-mailed them and got a response back quickly on a Monday. You can also call a Host at anytime at the tables or lobby, which is helpful. Live support is available 24 hours a day and E-mails are usually answered within 24 hours:

The rakeback program
that True Poker and FTR have put
together is awesome.
The rakeback goes straight
into the True Poker player
account without the need
for any 3rd parties.
The rakeback stats
can be checked through
the console
provided by True Poker.
One thing that sets this program
apart is that players can
get 5% of the rakes from
their friends.
The interface has exceptional
graphics, the players
are very life like.
True Poker does not
have as much action as some
of the major rooms but
hopefully that will change soon!
The support is great, the
employees I've spoken with
at True Poker
are friendly and intelligent.
The fish rating is average.
I haven't run into that many
bad players yet.
The bonus program is good.
Some rakeback programs don't
let you collect a bonus
but True Poker lets you do
both (although the bonus
is deducted from the
rakeback).
