| Paradise Poker is a steady room that aims to deliver poker in a casual and relaxed manner. The room lost a bit of its grip on the poker market after it stopped accepting US players, resulting in a much lower volume of players. In spite of this, the room has managed to maintain a good volume of players and keep the poker room going strong. The room also offers decent regular promotions to both the new and old players. The room recently changed networks, moving from a standalone poker room onto the Boss Media network, which gave the room a much needed face-lift. |

Paradise Poker recently migrated from being a standalone room with its own unique software, onto the Boss Media network with other big-name rooms in the industry. This was a very wise move, seeing as the old software and graphics was becoming a little outdated. Paradise veterans will be pleased to hear that the room has maintained its relaxed, tropical graphics, and you are still able to enjoy a good poker game next to the beach. The software runs more efficiently to that and the old, and the graphics are also a lot smoother. However, gone are the days of when you were able order drinks to the table next to your seat!
The lobby is a little difficult to navigate at first, as the room offers play in different currencies with these tables all mixed together without the ability to sort them efficiently. So when it comes to choosing the table to suit your needs, Paradise Poker makes things a little difficult. There is however a useful 'find player' option that allows you to find your friends by typing in their player nickname and searching for them. The table design as already mentioned is much improved, and we favor this design over the old one. There are now numerical values to accompany the bets, which helps you to keep up with the action at the table. |

| Paradise has a lot less traffic than it once had, due to the room preventing US players from playing. Since the move to the Boss Media network, the room has been able to give itself a slight boost in the volume of traffic it receives, but it is still not close to the amount of traffic that the industry leaders receive. However; there is by no means a shortage of tables, and you will always be able to find a seat at your favorite game and limit. |

| The competition used to be quite tough at paradise, but over time it has softened up. The relaxed graphics and atmosphere at the tables attracts the recreational players who are more willing to part with their money. The competition is slightly softer than you will find at other sites. |

| Full-Tilt has a very competent customer support team that is quick to respond to any questions or problems that you may have with the room. The room offers a list of individual e-mail addresses concerning support so that they are able to answer your queries more effectively. |

Paradise Poker offers a generous €500 to every player that makes a first deposit of €5 or more. The bonus is then held in a bonus account where it is released in €5 increments for every 100 FPPs (Frequent Player Points) you earn. FPPs can be obtained by generating rake, and 1 FPP is awarded for every €0.25 you generate in rake.
This means that you have to generate €25 to receive €5 of bonus, which does not make this bonus offer too good, and there are other bonuses out there that will be more rewarding. Furthermore, you have 180 days from your first deposit to claim the bonus before it expires. |
