Titan Poker Review

Titan Poker is a leading online room that forms part of the iPoker network. With liquidity now shared across all tiers of the iPoker skins, Titan Poker offers both recreational and more serious players a great place to get their real money action.

About Titan Poker

Titan Poker is fully regulated and licensed in the UK and Antigua as a skin of the iPoker network. The network now includes over 30 skins including some of the largest betting operators around like William Hill, bet365, and Coral.

Software

Titan Poker is the largest component of the iPoker network. Powered by Playtech, Titan features both solid download and 'Flash Poker' variants of its software. This makes the new client perfect for Mac players too.

iPoker is the world's biggest collection of online poker skins that also includes the likes of bet365 Poker and Mansion Poker. You can also play a pretty no-nonsense client on mobile via the iOS/Android instant-play app.

Players

Although iPoker merged its tiers a few years ago, it hasn't had a detrimental effect on player pools. While it's true that poker online has gotten tougher at all levels, the $0.10/0.25 NLHE games at Titan Poker are still populated by plenty of fishy regs.

We found around 3,500-4000 players online at Titan Poker at busy times. Many of the popular GTD tournaments shared the lion's portion of the traffic, but the lower-level cash games are still popular as are $20 and $30 SNGs.

Stakes & Cash Games

Titan Poker, and its iPoker parent network, had a controversial splitting of cash players back in 2012. The 'two-tier' policy meant that recreational players were kept apart from serious players with big rakeback deals. That arrangement has now gone and everyone has been merged into big pool of players.

Despite that, Titan remains a good place for low-stakes and recreational players to get their fix. Like all iPoker skins, action is best at the low-to-medium stakes NLHE cash tables. It's possible to multi-table easily at Titan Poker, with a 24-hour peak of around 2,000 players hitting the tables. iPoker's own take on fast-fold - Speed Poker - is available at a range of stakes, from $0.02/$0.05 up.

Low-stakes grinders can also take advantage of the 'Beginners Brawl', with $40 of cash awarded to anyone who amasses at least 100 raked hands.

Tournaments

Despite being online for a number of years, the big draws in the tournament lobby haven't really altered. Twister Poker set the trend for Jackpot Sit & Gos when they were introduced and are still popular. They work like 3-handed turbo SNGs where a random jackpot is selected before the tourney starts.

If you like SNG jackpots, there is the 6-man Fort Knox, of course: a SNG that pays a jackpot prize if you win six games in a row.

In terms of guarantees, there are two to watch out for. The €15,000 'Grand Friday' and €10,000 'Grand Saturday' take place each week. If you can't wait till the weekend, the €10,000 Championship carries a €50 buy-in and takes place daily at 8pm. Re-entries are permitted.

Poker Bonuses & VIP Programs

New players can get 200% up to £1200 when they sign up to Titan Poker. It works like a general match offer on first deposits but there are added no-deposit bonuses and 'ultimate' rakeback offers to enjoy too.

New depositors at Titan Poker can get hold of a $12,000 token package just by loading their accounts. Eight tokens for the $250 EXCLUSIVE and $250 SPECIAL freerolls (4 apiece) can be claimed. They take place every Tuesday and Thursday respectively. There's also one token for the $10,000 Monthly Bonanza offered.

The Titan VIP Club has many big benefits, including exclusive freerolls and six VIP points levels. 'Titan Points' can be collected whatever your level - $1 is earned for every 100 points exchanged. Gold Coins can be collected too during regular gameplay by hitting 'achievements' - these can then be redeemed for mystery cash prizes.

Customer Support & Banking

The support has always been good at Titan Poker. General queries by email are answered fairly quickly, while there's also decent Live Chat and a toll-free phone number.

Payments can be made in major currencies via the usual credit and debit card routes. VISA/VISA Electron/Delta, MasterCard and Maestro are all available. You can even deposit using Diners Club. The usual array of e-Wallets (Skrill, NETELLER, PayPal) and prepaid schemes (entropay, paysafecard) are also available.

Summary

Titan Poker continues to be the best skin on the iPoker network. The software has improved a lot in recent years, and it seems as iPoker have finally sorted out their player liquidity issues. If you love big-money guarantees, soft cash games, and the chance to earn some genuinely impressive bonuses, make your next stop Titan Poker.
