CD Poker Full Review

CD Poker is one of the most popular rooms on the iPoker network, offering loose games with lots of casino players, huge sit-and-go jackpots and good high-value promotions. For sit-and-go players in particular, CD Poker is a virtual Mecca, hosting one of the widest arrays of tournaments in the poker world, including the well-known “Limitless” Jackpots.

The software is the standard iPoker software with an innovative and good-looking interface and decent graphics. Both functionality and playability are very good, and early minor glitches in the software have since been fixed.

Games offered are Hold’em, Omaha and Seven-Card Stud Hi, Omaha Hi-Lo and Five-Card Draw. CD Poker also offers plenty of tournaments and freerolls plus access to all of the massive promotions on the iPoker network including the multi-million dollar ECOOP and guarantees as high as $1 million.

Traffic volume overall on the iPoker network is also now among the highest in the industry with real-money player stats showing 10000 ring-game players at peak hours and 55000 tournament players at peak hours.

Software and Graphics

CD Poker uses the iPoker network software developed by PlayTech and offers it in 12 languages. The graphics are nice and clear, the functionality is good and the software is updated regularly without significant downtime.

Multi-tablers will be right at home on CD Poker, which offers up to 16 tables simultaneously. The software also provides a mini-view function that instantly fits up to nine opened tables to your screen.

On occasion the games will run a bit slower on CD Poker, which doesn’t appear to be an issue with the software, just the length of the allotted time bank for each player. Overall, the software is quite good, even if play can be on the slow side.

Thanks to some recent software updates the iPoker softwarealso  now offers many leading edge features including auto top-up, multi-currency options, quick seat finding functionality, hand-for-hand near the bubble in tournaments and a buddy list to designate online friends.

Tournaments and Freerolls

CD Poker hosts hundreds of tournaments with buy-ins as small as $1 ranging all the way to several hundred. The tournaments are structured well, fast and draw some big fields. Play at any level on CD Poker is generally looser than most sites.

CD Poker is famous for hosting qualifiers to big live events all over the world and the site frequently offers World Series of Poker and WPT satellites. If you’re into massive prize pools, there’s a regular $250,000 guaranteed tournament plus a new $1 million monthly tournament on the iPoker schedule.

For players with a knack for sit-and-go tournaments, PokerListings highly recommends trying CD Poker for its potential lucrative jackpots which can hit $50k and above. All it takes is one hot streak to make a giant step in your poker bankroll.

CD Poker also runs lots of free tournaments. Events are well visited and play is very loose, with the prize pools typically in the low hundreds. Weekly and monthly special freerolls have higher prize pools, plus there is a daily $50 freeroll for first depositors.
