Full Review
The software provided by KS Poker is developed by Boss Media and offers the standard functions familiar to players. The functionality is decent, with player notes, multi-currency play and deposits. The games played at KS Poker are mainly low-limit Texas Hold'em, with plenty of lower buy-in tournaments and freerolls with good value, and plenty of medium-size guaranteed tournaments.
The traffic volume overall is in the lower segment of the industry. Real-money player statistics as of May 2012 show 3300 ring-game players at peak hours and 13000 tournament players at peak hours.
Overall, KS Poker offers loose games and decent software that plays well, even though it is on the slow side when it comes to opening new tables. The software is updated frequently to ensure safety and stability, with little downtime as a result.

Tournaments and Freerolls
Tournaments
KS Poker hosts a lot of tournaments with small to medium buy-ins; they are relatively well-visited and run all hours of the day. Play at any level is generally very loose in the smaller buy-in events.
Apart from the smaller tournaments KS Poker regularly hosts, there are a few larger guaranteed tournaments and satellites to live poker events, such as the Irish Open and the Monte Carlo Millions. Among the guaranteed tournaments, the monthly $40,000 guaranteed is the largest and most populated.
Software and Graphics
The KS Poker software is developed by Boss Media and is a part of the International Poker network. The software plays well, offers good functionality and is relatively stable. It's also updated regularly without significant downtime.
Statistics
The data and statistics functions in the KS Poker software allow you to take notes on the opposition during play, and the lobby supplies vital table statistics like viewed-flop percentage, average pot size and hands played per hour.
Multi-Table
The KS Poker software runs smoothly and safely when competing on multiple tables, and the software offers play at up to five tables at a time. KS Poker doesn't offer any kind of mini view or other special function to help players compete at multiple tables, but the tables are relatively easy to grasp, easy to look at and well-suited for multi-table play. On a negative note, the tables open too slowly for the software to get top marks.
Graphics
The KS Poker software is functional and good looking. The table functions are easy to learn and well-oriented. The software offers good functionality, which makes it easy to choose your exact preferences when it comes to limits, table size, currency and game. Cash games, multi-table tournaments and sit-and-go tournaments have their own areas in the software, which helps players navigate the site very easily.
Special Features
The KS Poker software offers the basic features you'd expect, and some special ones that stand out. Among the more unusual features is the geographical filter, allowing players to choose text in English, Italian, Turkish and Greek.
