Review of Titan Poker
Deposit Options Shipping chips onto Titan Poker is effortless with credit/ debit cards, e-wallets and bank transfers all being available deposit options.
Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, Solo, Delta. Neteller, MoneyBookers, Click and Buy, UKash. Bank wire.
Cashing out is equally effortless and in the majority of cases the route out is the same as the route in. If you ever have any problems with any financial transactions the support team are one hand to rectify any issues as quickly as possible.
Software Super quick, super smooth but a little on the large size. The speed of the games at Titan is excellent and isn't bogged down with fancy animations and graphics. The dark blue colour scheme is set just at the right level to not cause your eyes to spin and bring on a migraine during long sessions. The avatars and chat box can be removed to de-clutter the table, the four color deck option adds to the clarity of the action ensuring you never miss a bet. The only downside to the table layout is the sizing options. Overly large or overly small are the options and to be honest neither is ideal when you're trying to multi-table. Many players will find this a put off and unless you have dual monitors, it will be tough to play more than four tables at once comfortably. This isn't the end of the world though and the slick game play will compensate for any of the size issues you may encounter. The lobby is well constructed and the quick search feature allows you to jump into games without having to scour through every other active table. Overall, the site has a sturdy software engine which won't let you down and for players looking to put in long session this is one less inconvenience to distract you.
Type of Games The game selection at Titan Poker provides a cosmopolitan blend of over the top betting, capped aggression and refined raising. I am, of course, talking about No Limit, Pot Limit and Limit versions of the game and players can indulge in each of these disciplines at one of the many Hold'em, Omaha, Stud or Draw tables. The cash games are always full of action for players of all abilities. Penny games are frequent with the usual mix of loose passive fish; the mid stakes and high stakes games are comparatively weak as far as these types of games go. Full stack and 50bb minimum tables are great for those players who want to avoid the pesky short stacks and play some deep stack poker.
The tournament schedule has a good turn over rate and offers a range of styles (normal, turbo, deep stack and satellites) and buy-ins to suit all abilities and budgets. The two biggest tournaments of the week are the $300 Sunday $250K guaranteed and the $500, $40K guaranteed Hi-Rollers tournament. Both tournaments have numerous satellites and offer the chance to win a huge chunk of change with the markedly lower fields than other major sites.
Sit-n-Gos are popular and if these are your tipple then you can quench your thirst with any number of standard, turbo, jackpot, heads-up and double or nothing games.
Promotions and Bonuses Whether lady luck is besotted with you or scorns your advances at every opportunity, Titan Poker is on hand to see you get what you deserve. Constantly making strong hands at the table? Then you could be in line for Titan's hand of the day bonus which pays out $100 to anyone who makes four kings or better in any Texas Hold'em ring game. If you constantly have bucket loads of luck, bad luck, then playing at Titan may just be your lucky day (or unlucky day). Have any hand of four kings or better beaten in any Hold'em ring game and you'll be able to dry your tears with 250 $1 bills.
Titan Poker's altruistic nature is greater than most poker sites and their New Depositor Freerolls give every new player a chance to start their Titan journeys off on the right foot. With guaranteed prize pools of $2K these are an excellent way for new players to ensure their bankroll is big enough to let them experience all the joys of Titan Poker to the fullest. If it's jackpots you want then Titan has more to offer than almost any other poker site. Daily, weekly and monthly. There seems to be a new way to win something extra every time you log onto Titan Poker.
Loyalty is important to Titan Poker and that's why their VIP system is designed to give players something extra for their time at the tables. Starting at the bronze level you can work you way to the top of the tree where you can benefit from some point boosters and cash for points exchange system. Swapping points for cash, at an ever decreasing exchange rate, is something that many iPoker affiliated sites don't offer and this is by far the most lucrative aspect of their scheme.
Customer Support Phone, email and live support; what more could you ask for? Contacting Titan is extremely easy and whatever your problem, the support staff are always on hand to help. The only problem you're likely to have at Titan Poker is which game you should choose next.
Summary The iPoker Network is Europe's largest network and the competition among affiliated poker rooms is fierce. There are many great rooms on the network, such as Mansion Poker, and for Titan Poker to find a place amid the top players is a testament to the hard work, innovations and bevy of bonuses. The site not only offers players a stylish looking interface, hoards of weak players and more games than you can shake a stick at but its "My Speedy Alert" system takes them to a different level. The downloadable feature will save any unnecessary lobby fishing and tournament trawling because it brings all the vital information straight to your desktop; even if you're aren't logged into the site. This is a great little feature that, if we're being honest, isn't essential but in highly competitive. In the poker industry, it's the added extras like this that sets a room apart. Moreover, it demonstrates a room's desire to give their players the best experience possible. Titan ticks all the usual boxes and even adds a few more. If you're looking for a new room with something extra then Titan Poker is the room for you. |
