 Poker Ocean is yet another great online poker offer; a sturdy sign-up bonus bundled with a monthly refill bonus is a great way of welcoming new members and keeping old ones. The software is excellent thanks to high reliability, security and the superb graphical interface. Many features are available, such as buddy lists, player notes, hand history playbacks and more. It is still a growing room and we expect this poker room to be heavily populated in a couple of years. Unfortunately, high stakes gaming is still not very common, but that does not necessarily mean that you - the high stakes gambler - should look elsewhere. There's still plenty of competition at all levels. Software
Poker Ocean is licensing its software from PlayTech. The EveryPoker.com staff are big fans of this package and therefore endorse it. First and foremost, the visuals are great. The lobby is not on par with the table graphics, but is easy to navigate and filled with useful features. Most importantly, the software is stable and nowadays, there are virtually no user comments on instability. Additionally, special features like real time hand playback is available, as well as a buddy list and super fast user comments. All in all, there's nothing to complain about and if Poker Ocean improve its client with just a few more features, it will become a 10 pointer.
Traffic
This is a farily new room. It was established in 2006 and has had a rapid growth rate ever since. It is also part of a larger network which ensures that there's always a lot of competition online. During peak times, as many as 6,000 players will be connected. Roughly 50 % of the competition is in the tournament tables. The rest will be found in ring games.
Tournaments
Many of Poker Ocean's customers play at the many tournaments. Regular Sit'n'Go games are available, with buy-ins from $1 to $200. Jackpot games are available as an addition to the regular Sit'n'Goes. Satellites are hosted regularly to the World Series of Poker, Million Mania, Legends of Poker and more. We particularly enjoy the very popular heads-up tournaments at Poker Ocean. Last but not least, Poker Ocean offer a $100,000 Fort Knox tournament.
Game Variety
The variety of games offered at Poker Ocean is about average. In other words, there's nothing fancy about it, but as Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo and Stud is available, it is likely going to please the majority of poker players. Turbo modes are available, as well as heads-up games, which is a great plus.
Soft Competition
It's not the softest of all poker networks, but it does not mean that you're up for some heavy competition. In fact, the softness at Poker Ocean is better than average and you're most likely going to find a fish or two here. Players at the high stakes tables usually play tight games with low seen flops percentage, but if you go down to $1/$2 stakes and below, you will find a lot of loose play.
Sign Up Bonus
we teamed up with Poker Ocean to offer a Poker Ocean bonus code worth an exclusive 50% first deposit match, up to a maximum of $200. In other words, you must deposit $400 to get the extra $200 added to your account. You can obviously deposit lower and higher amounts too, if you like. As an extra feature for Poker Ocean's members, you will receive a monthly reload bonus. Simply deposit up to $100 to claim another $100 added to your account. This bonus can be claimed only once every month and is only matched to your first deposit of the month.
Loyalty Rewards
When we speak of loyalty bonuses here at EveryPoker.com, we usually mention special bonuses and alike, acquired by members who play regularly at an online poker room. Although Poker Ocean does not support a real loyalty bonus, it does offer a monthly 100 % match bonus, up to a maximum of $100. This bonus can be redeemed every month and therefore serves as a valuable function to loyal members.
Promotions
Poker Ocean offers a sign up bonus that can be combined with the superb monthly refill bonus, allowing the player to generate as much as $1,300 in hard cash money bonuses for the first year, and then $1,200 in the following years. A monthly $100,000 tournament is offered on a regular basis, and if you're into Jackpot games, you will enjoy the many Jackpots ranging from the progressive jackpot to the massive $100,000 jackpot.
Support
The newly established Poker Ocean has opened with great support capability. Its clients can choose between a fast e-mail support, 24/7 telephone support for U.S. and international calls and a great live chat function. The live chat requires you to log on to the Poker Ocean software.
