Review of the poker room

Launched in 2001, the operator dominated the North American market until its withdrawal from the US market in 2011. Unlike his competitor in the Canadian poker market, PokerStars is not a poker site that sends its players to a network where members of multiple sites compete. When you play on PokerStars, only PokerStars players are present. This is possible of course because of the size of the operator which has millions of active players around the world and in Canada. The advantage for the players that we are is of course the possibility of playing 24/24, 7 days / 7 on full tables and participating in tournaments with high prize pools. It is this availability that also attracts the biggest stars of the discipline, including the Canadian professional player Daniel Negreanu who has raked in millions of dollars in winnings on the cashgame tables and in PokerStars tournaments. To learn more about PokerStars and become an ace of the game too, we invite you to discover in detail how the site works.

Website and software

PokerStars is a juggernaut operator in the global online poker market. On average, 15,000 players compete every day on the cash game tables. Similarly, PokerStars organizes tournaments of varying sizes every day that attract thousands of players. The record for participation in a tournament is 225,000 participants, this spectacular participation is explained due to the low buy-in of $1 and the quality of the room. Indeed, on PokerStars the pleasure is not only the online poker game but also the simplicity of using the software. It is very easy to navigate from one menu to another, to find the tournaments of the day, the week, the month. Registering for a tournament takes only a few seconds and it is very easy to move from one table to another to discover all the variants of poker.

Variants and tournaments

This is the other strong point of PokerStars. Here you can play many variations of poker including the famous Texas Hold'em but also Horse, Razz, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo (8 or Better), Courchevel, Stud, Stud Hi/Lo (8 or Better), Five-card Draw, 2-7 Triple Draw & 2-7 Single Draw, Badugi, Hose, Mixed Hold'em, Mixed Omaha Hi/Lo, Triple Stud and finally the 8-Game Mix . This is simply the biggest online poker offer. The most popular variants that you can find in American, European or Asian casinos are just a click away here. As for the tournaments, we can mention the big tournaments with substantial prize pools such as the Sunday Million, this tournament organized every Sunday offers a guaranteed prize pool of 1 million dollars for a buy-in of $215. This tournament is simply the most popular online poker tournament. Other tournaments such as the World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) and the Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) are also organized on the room and attract amateurs and professionals alike.

Bonuses and payment

PokerStars offers a generous 100% bonus up to $600 when you register. This bonus is available to all Canadian players. To receive this bonus, all you have to do is download the application and make a minimum deposit of $10. It is very easy and fast to download the poker software; in case of difficulty we invite you to disable the pop-up blocker of your browser to start the download. When it comes to loyalty, PokerStars knows how to reward loyal players. Yes, it is profitable to play on PokerStars regardless of your level. The more you play on the site, the more cash you receive in your player account. This cash takes the form of a rakeback which depends on your loyalty status. The biggest players can thus receive several thousand dollars in rakeback each month, but this requires playing several hundred hours each month on the room. Regarding payment methods, PokerStars accepts Visa, Mastercard credit cards, Skrill and Neteller e-wallets and bank transfers. Payments on the room are fast and secure.
