Sun Poker is one of the better known online poker sites, mostly because of the fact that they have been able to market themselves very well. A name like Sun Poker combined with events in the most beautiful places in the world is a great way to promote your own website and indeed that is what Sun Poker has been doing. However, beyond the marketing, the product they offer is pretty good as well.
US Players The main drawback to the Sun Poker website is the fact that they do not accept players from the United States . Players from the US will have to find another website to frequent for their online poker needs and this has been true for at least two years now at Sun Poker. The likelihood of this changing in the near future is dim.
Software & Graphics
Sun Poker is a member of the Crypto Logic Network and they use the software that the other websites use with differences in color and voiceovers in order to make the Sun Poker software unique from the other members of the Crypto Logic Network. Sun Poker has excellent software that runs very well and is very easy to use. Their graphics, while not the best graphics in the world, at the same time provide accentuation to a game play experience that is hard to beat.
Poker Games Available Sun Poker offers games in Texas Hold ‘Em and Omaha that are very easy to access during the day and night and if you are a fan of either one of these two variants you should be able to find something to play no matter when you log onto the website provided that you have a range of two or three different limits in ring games that you are willing to play. In terms of tournaments there are sit and go tournaments as well as scheduled events and the tournaments at Sun Poker also sometimes act as qualifiers for bigger events. Overall, the selection of poker games available is impressive for a site the size of Sun Poker.
Bonuses & Promotions New players to Sun Poker get a $500 deposit bonus and they also get a free entry into a tournament that has a guaranteed prize pool of at least $2000 (some of the new player tournaments will have more). In addition to that, there is also a monthly deposit bonus of $200 that can be won from Sun Poker. These three bonuses together collectively make one of the best bonus plans on the internet.
Sun Poker also has My Poker Points, which are part of the larger Crypto Logic loyalty program (although they can not be used to crossover between poker websites). These poker points can be used to redeem entry into different tournaments, which in turn can give you the chance to win big money for free.
Conclusion A reliable software package, a fantastic bonus structure and good choice in poker games are all reasons that Sun Poker is worth playing at.
