Pokerstar VIP club

No other loyalty scheme makes you feel more important than the Pokerstars VIP Club. The more you play, the more the benefits increase and you can spend your hard earned Frequent Player Points on luxury items, live & online tournament entry, big cash bonuses and even a concierge service. Then there is of course the Supernova Elite program which is hundreds of thousands of dollars to those that get there.

On January 1st 2012 PokerStars changed the way they award VIP Player Points (VPPs), switching from what is known as the "dealt" method to "weighted contributed". Historically VPPs would be split equally amongst all the players who were dealt into a hand regardless of them contributing to a pot or not. But since the changes VPPs are awarded proportionally based on each player's contribution to the pot.

Pokerstars Review

Online Poker

Limits & Rake

PokerStars has a large selection of limit levels that are sure to appeal to everyone, from the beginner, to the experienced high stakes player. PokerStars fixed limit Hold'em cash games begin with micro limits of $0.02/$0.04 up to $1000/$2000. No Limit Texas Holdem limits begin at just $0.01/$0.02 and increase gradually through to $200/$400 blinds.
The rake system at PokerStars is one of the lowest in the industry with the average taken being 5% of the pot up to a maximum of $3.

The maximum rake ever taken from a single pot is $5 but this will only ever happen at high stakes tables with four or more players seated and for most cases the maximum rake, at No Limit Hold'em tables, ranges from $0.50 to just $3.

 

 

 

Playability

The PokerStars software is well programmed, running smoothly with rich graphics. Players can upload pictures as avatars, tables can be resized, themes selected and updated, with various search functions easy to use.

Scrolling in chat and in the lobby can be a little bit of a hassle and players must click on each individual table to join the waiting list. However, these minor quibbles don't detract from the overall experience.
