Titan Poker Review
Software - 9.5/10
Despite being a skin on the iPoker Network, Titan Poker has quite a unique feel about it and in 2010 they completed a design overhaul and added several new features including a flash client for Mac users. The Titan Poker lobby is very easy to navigate and shows how many players are online, how many tournaments are being played and how many tables are open.
Vital statistics such as Average Pot, Hands per hour and Viewed-flop percentage are all clearly visible making table selection easy. Once seated at the Titan Poker tables you will notice how clear and crisp the graphics are with each player having their own avatars. You will also be able to view statistics on your session at the table with information like hands played, flops seen, won at showdown and many others available. Titan Poker is also a joy for players who like to multi-table with the ability to play up to 16 tables at once.
Tournaments - 9/10
Titan Poker offers a great selection of poker tournaments with everything from freerolls to huge guaranteed prize pools.
The largest guaranteed tournament every month is their Monthly Million which has a guaranteed prize pool of $1 million and a buy-in of $500+$35; however there are lots of satellites available for less than $1! The largest weekly tournament is the $250,000 Guaranteed which takes place every Sunday and has a direct buy-in of $300+$20, and again there are lots of cheap daily satellites.
Another popular feature is the various Jackpot Tournaments available at Titan Poker. There are four different Jackpots at Titan Poker with the largest being the Fort Knox Jackpot. If you finish first in six consecutive $50+$9 Fort Knox sit-and-goes, you will win the progressive jackpot worth a minimum of $50,000. However there are smaller buy-in SNG Jackpots you can compete for depending on your bankroll which are the Rio, Maui, and Dirty Dozen Jackpots.
Check out the Titan Poker tournaments page for more information on all the satellites, freerolls and MTTs on offer.
Game Variety 9.5/10
Titan Poker offers the standard games you would expect from such an established poker room. The Texas Hold'em games are by far the most popular at the site and are available at limit, pot-limit, and no-limit and range from micro stakes of $0.01/$0.02 to as high as $200/$400.
There are heads-up, six-max, and full-ring tables available. Other popular games available at Titan Poker include Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, Seven-Card Stud, 5-Card Stud and most recently they introduced Razz tables.
Soft Competition - 10/10
The games at Titan Poker are much easier than other poker rooms. At the lower stakes Hold'em games it is common to have tables with viewed-flop percentages as high as 60%, meaning a player with at least some skill and experience should find great success here.
The games do get a little tougher above the $2/$4 limits but if you have good game selection you will have no trouble finding an easy table at Titan Poker. The tournament competition is also very easy until you get to the large buy-in tournaments which attract some of the best online tournament players in the world.
Customer Support
Titan Poker has one of the best customer support teams in the online poker industry.
They provide 24/7 support all year round and players can contact support via telephone, e-mail, fax or even live chat which can be accessed in the player lobby. Unlike other online poker rooms where you have to wait hours for a reply via e-mail, Titan Poker response times are as quick as 10 minutes in some cases.
This obviously varies depending on how many players are contacting support but just to showcase how fantastic the Titan Poker support is - they won the 2006, 2007 and 2008 Gambling Online Magazine Gold Award for 'Best Online Poker Customer Service'.
