Currently the largest poker network in Asia, IDNPoker started in 2010 in Cambodia. It has since expanded into Malaysia and Thailand. It also holds a PAGCOR license, making it one of the top B2B providers of online gaming platforms. In addition to its Asia-focused expansion, IDNPoker is also the third-largest poker network in the world in terms of traffic.
IDNPoker offers a simple and minimalistic lobby. There are buttons for different games, seated players, and cash games. The lobby doesn’t feature waiting lists, and no filters. The client is a simple HTML5 application that runs on desktop computers, so you don’t have to download anything. It also has an arrangement by number of seated players. However, the client lacks many standard poker room features.
Unlike most online poker rooms, IDNPoker offers a multi-table feature. This allows players to view multiple tables in separate windows. This means that you can play more tables at once without occupying valuable table space. However, this feature requires a different browser. You can also only play one table per account. If you want to play more than one table at a time, you must create a separate account for each table.
IDNPoker’s main focus is on the Asia-Pacific region, with a particular emphasis on Indonesia and Malaysia. But the network is also open to players from other regions. You can play cash games, tournaments, and special events from IDNPoker, even if you are not a member of the website. You can also deposit funds using transfer banks, E-Wallets, or a credit card. There is a no-deposit bonus on all of IDNPoker’s websites, and you can take advantage of a bonus referral program.
The network operates over 200 skins across Asia, and has a BMM RNG certificate. This certification is meant to protect players from rogue sites, but many internet discussion forums have reported issues with non-random card dealing. These issues may result in the game favouring “bots” or multiple players, resulting in increased bets. While this may not necessarily be a bad thing, it may also discourage new players.
Some players claim that they see more bad beats online than they do in a live game. This is because online poker sites don’t usually allow players to show their hands before folding. This is typically allowed in casinos, but isn’t always the case online. If you play in a live poker game, you are often limited to playing at one table at a time.
There are also a number of poker rooms that deal in several different currencies. Some of these sites convert funds at a lower premium than banks, while others only accept U.S. dollars. Some sites require you to convert your funds before you deposit. Depending on the site, you may also have to convert funds at a certain rate. You can also participate in poker freeroll tournaments. These tournaments are designed to attract new players and low-stakes players. They often feature free tournaments with a low entry fee, so you don’t have to be rich to play.
