Tournaments and Freerolls
Tournaments
VIP Poker hosts many tournaments with buy-ins from $1 to hundreds of dollars. The tournaments are well populated and fast, and play is usually somewhat loose. Because many of the tournaments are re-buy events, play in the early stages is often extremely loose - be sure to note the type of tournament before joining. VIP Poker runs monthly $150,000 and $250,000 tournaments that draw a large number of players. There are daily qualifiers running to these tournaments with buy-ins as low as $5.50. They also offer some qualifiers to big live events like the European Poker Tour.
Software and Graphics
VIP Poker runs on customized Microgaming software on the Microgaming network. The software runs smoothly and offers customizable buttons and graphic action replay of hands. The software is updated now and then with some downtime as a result.
Statistics
The data and statistics functions in VIP Poker’s software allow you to take notes on your opposition during play, and the lobby supplies vital table statistics like viewed-flop percentage, average pot size, seated-player’s stack size and hands played per hour. At any time a player can look at an analysis of his own play through an interface at the table, seeing checks, calls, folds and re-raises. The hand history works well in the software and exports smoothly to the local computer for analysis but does not list hands played in a session. One function that is useful when clearing bonuses is that the lobby counts raked hands, making it easy for a player to keep track of how much he has played.
Multi Table
The latest version of VIP Poker’s software supports up to eight tables of simultaneous play, and if used with the mini-table size option, five tables can be viewed at the same time. Multi-table play runs smoothly, and few problems have been reported. The tables are a little cluttered, and the chat and other information dialogues take up a little too much space. For those with diminished vision, the hole cards can be hard to distinguish.
Graphics
The graphics of the VIP Poker software are standard but a little cluttered and hard to get used to. Most users seem to think they are ok, but nothing special. Avatars are not used, and the felt color is a standard green.
Special Features
VIP Poker software offers the basic features offered by most poker rooms. Special functions are the mini view that helps multi-table play on smaller monitors, and the table-integrated statistics.
