Key Tournaments
As you’d expect from a firm like Genting their poker room has the means to offer poker players seats to some of the most sought after poker tournaments in Europe and they are able to run qualifiers to the likes of the WPT London and the world famous English Poker Open.
It isn’t just live poker tournaments they specialise in though and there are plenty of options for keen tournament players. Indeed, Genting Poker claim to offer $16,000,000 in tournament prize pools every month of the year!
The firm’s two headline tournaments are Friday’s $150,000 GTD followed by Playtech’s Sunday Major, the $250,000 GTD event. Both of these showpieces are accessible to small stakes players through a number of different satellites meaning that you don’t have to enter the site with a bottomless pit of cash.
Genting Poker also claim to be big on rewards – especially when it comes to giving something back to their players who make a deposit with them every month. So if you like the sound of getting your hands on a guaranteed prize pool of $1,000, simply make a deposit during the month to win a free seat in their $1,000 Depositors Freeroll.
Game Variety
Genting Poker players are offered a whole host of different ways to play poker and the days of having to stick to Omaha and Holdem games are long gone.
Texas Holdem has the widest range of limits the firm offer, and you can play for as little as a few pence, right up to hundreds or thousands of pounds per hand. However, Playtech players have moved to specialise in the likes of stud and razz games and Genting Poker have not missed out on the chance to plug these variations of the game.
There’s a huge variety of cash tables available at Genting Poker. You’ll find comprehensive details of each displayed in the Poker Lobby.
The number of players can range from two to ten, and the stakes range from micro - where the big blinds can be as low as 10 cents - to high-roller levels. There are also different games available - from Turbo No Limit Holdem to Omaha, Stud and more. When you’ve chosen a table, just click to take your seat, or join the waiting list if it’s a popular game. When a seat becomes available you’ll be taken to your table.
