Noble Poker

50% up to $300 free (200% reload bonus up to $60)
 

Playtech, a leading casino software vendor, released its own Poker network during late 2004. With several high profile online casinos, the traffic was expected to grow fast. Noble Poker is leading the way as the single largest poker room in the iPoker Network. As it comes off such a strong casino base, there is lots of loose action due to high number of online casino players taking up online poker.  The network is growing fast and Noble Poker is playing a significant role in this. The sign up bonus of $300, as well as excellent online promotion draws a lot of fish to Noble Poker. The software is of a high quality and the interface is intuitive and well planned. Noble Poker is one of the Poker Rooms with the most potential, and you will do well to take advantage of their generous promotions.

Rake at Noble Poker:
Rake is fair and below the industry average. Standard rake is 5% levied in increments to a maximum of  $3. There are even some tables that advertise a lower rake like fixed limit tables up to $1/$2 that have a maximum $1 rake. All tables with a maximum of 3 players have a maximum rake of $1 and tables with 4 or 5 players have a $2 maximum rake. No rake is taken where there is no flop dealt. All in all very good.

Traffic:
Traffic is growing fast. As of April, 2006 there were 1,100-1,300 ring game players at peak hours, and an impressive 2,200-2,500 tournament players at peak hours. More and more operators are signing up to the network, and it will continue to grow.Noble Poker has a very respectable tournament traffic count of  approx 5500 real money players at peak playing times (Aug, 2006).

"Soft" Competition / Looseness:
Tons of soft action due to casino players (some with deep pockets) being converted.
