Double Up October Promotion is a very interesting promotion where players can win a share of $150,000 by playing Sit ‘n’ Go tournaments!
Available Games
Winner Poker has all the major poker games on offer, in various limits. Texas Hold’em, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, 7 Card Stud and 5 Card Stud are just the main types of poker available.
Players Traffic
Unfortunately, Winner Poker does not allow US based players to join due to the UIGEA (Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act) law. Despite the lack of American based players the site maintains a considerable amount of traffic with the players being mainly from European countries.
VIP
Winner Casino has a fantastic VIP Program in place. The player’s VIP status basically depends on the players’ activity. The player climbs up the VIP ranking depending on how many points they achieve. Points are built up via raked hands so technically the more a player plays, the more likely they are to move up the VIP rankings. Bonuses and promotions become more and more attractive as you climb up the VIP ladder. Members gain Bonuses, can enter Frerolls and even receive cash money.
Support
The customer service is an area that Winner Poker prides itself on. Support is available 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. You can contact them through e-mail, telephone or fax. It has contact options for Canada as well as other international regions which are toll free. You are also able to contact them regarding specific queries such as VIP, Marketing, Feedback and Support, if you find it necessary.
Conclusion
The Winner Brand is a big up and coming online site and its Poker branch only adds to its growing reputation. The site has the customers at the fore of its concern with great support and presentation available. The promotions and loyalty to members is encouraging whilst the use of social networking such as Facebook and Twitter is also something that will be adopted by sites across the globe so it is positive to see Winner Poker embracing this. In total, this site is definitely one to consider.
