Zusammenfassung (Rated 8 out of 10)
Als einer der "älteren Herren" des Online Pokerns bleibt Paradise Poker doch weiterhin mit an der Spitze der Industrie und es ist nicht schwer zu erkennen warum. Mal von einigen kleineren Schwächen abgesehen sind es die umfassende Spielauswahl, komfortable und unterhaltsame Spielumgebung und große Konkurrenz, die Paradise zu einem puristischen Poker Room machen. Erwarte nicht hier das große Geld zu machen, denn hier triffst Du auf einige der besten Onlinespieler.
nach oben
Spielauswahl (Rated 9 out of 10)
Paradise Pokers unumstitten größter Vorzug ist die riesige Spielauswahl, die jedes Spiel und jeden Spieler berücksichtigt. Cash Games sind besonders stark vertreten und bieten praktisch jegliche Spielvariante auf allen Einsatzlevels. Limit, Pot Limit und No-Limit-Hold'em, Omaha und 7-Card-Stud (inkl. der HI/LO Varianten), 5-Card-Draw und -Stud sowie Pineapple sind alle vom Micro-Limit (1c/2c) bis hin zum High-Limit (40$/80$) verfügbar.
In Bezug auf Turniere ist Paradise genauso vielseitig, obwohl die Unterbringung über die gesamte Bandbreite nicht ganz so ausgeprägt ist. Die geplanten Turniere mit Buy-Ins zwischen 1$ und 1000$ sind exzellent und in diesem Bereich werden die unterschiedlichsten Varianten in Bezug auf Ausschüttung und Spielerbegrenzung angeboten. Ebenso gibt es jede Menge Satelliten, viele sogar zur WSOP, obwohl der Mangel an Freerolls einige Spieler ohne ihre bevorzugte Buy-In-Option zurücklassen wird. Ein weiterer Kritikpunkt ist die überraschende Einschränkung, sowohl in Bezug auf den Buy-In und die Größe, von Sit-and-Gos. Obwohl es jederzeit sehr viele Sit-and-Gos gibt ist die Auswahl doch auf Heads-Up und Single-Table beschränkt und haben außerdem einen Mindesteinsatz von 5$. Spieler mit einer kleineren Bankroll werden die Chance auf höhere Gewinne bei Sit-and-Gos mit zwei, drei oder vier Tischen vermissen.

Stärke der Gegner (Rated 9 out of 10)
Der Status als einer der ältesten und am bekanntesten Poker Rooms bedeutet nicht nur dass Paradise Poker einen hohen Spielerstandard unterhält, sondern auch einen hohen Spielerverkehr. Mal von einigen Ausnahmen abgesehen, bieten die meisten Tische eine harte Konkurrenz und so ist es schwierig einen konstanten Profit zu erspielen, allerdings wirst Du hier Dein Spiel verbessern können. Also benutze Paradise um Dein Spiel zu verbessern - Fische musst Du wohl anderswo jagen.
An den High-Limit-Tischen findet man einige der besten Spieler überhaupt, was - wenn Du es Dir leisten kannst - eine sehr gute Möglichkeit darstellt Dein Spiel auf die nächste Stufe zu bringen. Dies gilt eigentlich für alle Spielvarianten, sei es nun Hold'em, Stud oder Omaha. An den 5-Card-Draw-Tischen gibt es dagegen einige schwache Stellen, hierher verirren sich doch öfters einmal Spieler, die es aus Neugier einfach mal ausprobieren wollen und meistens keine Ahnung haben.
nach oben
Software (Rated 7 out of 10)
Für eine Seite mit so einer Abstammung und Know-How in fast allen Bereichen ist es doch verwunderlich, dass Paradise Pokers Software nicht dem Standard manch anderer geringwertigerer Seiten entspricht. Obwohl das Herunterladen und die Installation einfach und problemlos verlaufen und das Navigieren in der Lobby auch glatt verläuft, gibt es einige nervige Fehler, z.B. wenn man auf einen 0,50$/1$ NL Tisch klickt und irgendwie an einem 0,25$/0,50$ Limit Tisch herauskommt - das kann dann schon richtig nerven. Die Auswahlmöglichkeiten sind auch etwas eingeschränkt, obwohl sie einen sehr guten Online-Support haben und alle anderen Basisfunktionalitäten, wie z.B. Freunde suchen, vorhanden sind.
An den Tischen selbst geht es dann weiter mit den Störungen und das Spielerlebnis ist weniger glatt als erwartet. Die Probleme sind alle kleinerer Natur, z.B. die generelle Langsamkeit in Bezug auf Bets, Chipverteilung und das Zeigen oder Weglegen von Karten. Das alles stört eigentlich nicht wirklich beim Spielen, allerdings kann es schon an den Nerven zehren, wenn man nach der letzten Bietrunde mehrere Sekunden auf den Ausgang der Hand warten muss. Der Raise-Mechanismus ist auch etwas komisch und es gibt auch weniger Pre-Select-Knöpfe was das Spiel wiederum verlangsamt. Ein Pluspunkt für alle, die den Ton an ihrem Rechner an haben, ist die hohe Qualität der Sounds.
nach oben
Grafik (Rated 8 out of 10)
In Bezug auf die Grafik ist Paradise Poker eine extrem attraktive und spaßige Seite um Poker zu Spielen, obwohl dabei die Anwendbarkeit manchmal auf der Strecke bleibt. Das tropische Insel-Motto ist farbenfroh und hat wirklich klare Animationen, vor allem im Vergleich zu anderen Seiten mit einem ähnlichen Motto, wie z.B. Sun Poker. Das Hauptinterface ist eigentlich recht einfach zu benutzen, da alle wichtigen Optionen einfach zu finden sind, obwohl sowohl die Anordnung der Spiele unter den zentralen Überschriften manchmal etwas verwirrend sein kann und auch die sonst üblichen Turnier-Lobbies, mit Informationen zu Gegnern und Auszahlungsinformationen, fehlen.
Die Grafiken während des Spielens schaffen eine komfortable und angenehme Spielatmosphäre, sind jedoch wiederum etwas nachlässig im Bezug auf die Benutzbarkeit. Generell ist die Optik mit den goldenen Aktionsknöpfen, Namensschildern und Schriftsatz auf den Tischen an ein hoch-klassiges Casino angelehnt. Obwohl dieser Look äußerst effektiv ist, bleiben doch einige offene Punkte mit dem eigentlichen Spiel, so wie z.B. keine Anzeige der gesetzten Chips bis Du an der Reihe bist. Die Karten sind auch etwas kleiner als bei anderen Online Poker Rooms, was vielleicht zuerst nicht als Problem erscheint, aber dann doch spürbar ist, wenn man wieder in diesen anderen Poker Rooms spielt nachdem man bei Paradise gespielt hat.
nach oben
Profitabilität (Rated 4 out of 10)
Einige Seiten sind durch ihre großzügigen Boni und eine Menge von Promotions profitabel, andere durch Spieler die bereitwillig ihr Geld abgeben. Unglücklicherweise trifft für Paradise Poker beides nicht zu. Ihr Bonus ist unterdurchschnittlich und außerdem noch schwer freizuspielen.
Darüber hinaus wird auch die Spielstärke bei Paradise Poker die Erzielung eines Profit erschweren, vor allem auch durch das Fehlen des Extraspielraums, da nur die einbezahlte Bankroll zur Verfügung steht. Wie bei jeder anderen Seite mit besseren Spielern ist also ein längerfristiger Ansatz der richtige Weg um Geld zu verdienen. Obwohl Paradise nicht der Platz ist um Millionen zu verdienen, könnte es zumindest der Platz für Dich sein eine gute Basis zu schaffen, um zumindest die Chance auf Deine erste Million realistischer zu machen.

Paradise poker is one of the first online poker sites I ever heard of. Back in the day it was independent network, but recently it joined Boss Media network which is one of the fastest growing poker networks online.
The network differs from all other major poker networks as it's the only network that allows you to play in multiple currencies. There are tables and tourneys in GBP, USD, Euro and even Turkish lira. It doesn't matter what currency your account is, you can still play in any table as your cash is automatically exchanged. When you leave table your chips get exchanged at same rate you bought them in the first place, so you won't lose money if rates vary while you play.
The amount of players on the site is somewhat low compared to the biggest networks (stars, fulltilt, ipoker, ongame) but you can definetely find yourself a game at any stake level pretty much any time. From my experience I can say that the games are somewhat softer than on many other sites.
As a conclusion I can say that Paradise poker is a nice site which will most likely get even nicer as the network grows. Strong four stars!

This was my first savvyaccount. I liked the graphics and GUI overall. They were nice and clear. The level of players in Paradise was quite average, but beating them in microstakes is not very difficult. And you can get the needed points in microstakes tables easily.
Personally I had some difficulties in tracking my account to savvy, but thanks to AWESOME customer support in Paradise(Taru in Finnish support) it was finally sorted out. I have to say I have never gotten better customer support than from Taru. I'll be adding 1 star just for her. Lol.
Easy bonus, clear GUI, supersupport, I recommend!

Had quite an intensive day clearing this bonus. Ended up playing mostly 3/6 limit very loose pre-flop - was working for me at least. I would not recommend Paradise if you don't have at least 1k bankroll.

The SavvyBonus is easy to clear , but the Paradise Bonus of 200€ is pretty tough for 0.5/1 and 1/2.
Players at Paradise are generally weak, you'll find fish at almost any table.
What I don't like about Paradise is the software. The tables are not resizeable. Shorthanded tables are 5-max(I prefere 6-max) and unfortunately there are only few Full Ring tables.
All in all a good poker room!
Huge Bonus, but difficult to clear.

I played Paradise bonus with old rules of 400 raked hands. It was really easy to complete but I noticed that the rules have changed. Software at Paradise Poker is just great and they have really many tournaments to choose from any time. I continued playing tournaments at Paradise regularly also after I had completed my bonus. I play mostly 5-15€ sit and go tournaments and MTT tournaments with buy in like 5-20€. I think this bonus is worth of playing also with these new rules.

now the savvy points are hard to get because you need to rake a lot to get the points.
i was lucky to signup before when it was only a few raked hands.
the software is not so good but there are many loose players.

I completed this bonus at the micro LH tables, since I only needed raked hands. I wasn't too thrilled with the 5 max tables, it's one man short IMO. Software is good, although a bit fussy having to deposit and withdraw through a separate website. Competition at the micro LH tables is very fishy. Tight aggressive gets the money everytime.

Software was pretty good, but you couldn't minimize the window so I could only play with 2 tables at the same time. The lobby is okay, you could see all what you at the lobby.
There's lot of south european players and those player give your max value every hand what you play. They just call call call with middle pair etc. so try to find those guys.
Bonus was easy to clear in NL10, but the deposit bonus what did you get at same time was pretty hard. I think I get only 10-20 € bonusmoney. So if you wanna play the deposit bonus too, you should probably play atleast NL25. Bigger stakes is faster ofc.

the savvypoints for the paradise bonus were easy to get. But only under the old requirements. 900 FPPs under the new requirements are impossible with the limit I play.
positives: software and graphics are good. competition was weak.
negatives: no pokertracker support for 7c-stud and hold'em doesn´t work correctly. communications probs between paradise and pokersavvy.

A great place to play short handed tables. Even on the lower NL tables people play very very loose. I suggest playing the NL25 tables since from my experience it's easy money there. Besides the fact that you can make your profit from winning your hands the bonus is easy to clear.
The only part I didn't like is the game-play used in their software.

No problems with paradise poker. Their own bonus system is great. It is pretty easy to clear and pays 10€ at a time, so no need to grind it all the way. I think it is a very good idea to play the 900fpp for 1300 savvypoints and 90€ of their own bonus.
The games are also good and the software is nice.
Great bonus!!!

From my point of view, this is an easy bonus! Requirements to earn SavvyPoints is peaty low, even at the micro-stakes tables. The players are weak and exploitable, so you can even make some money while you finish your bonus!

This bonus was the most easiest bonus that I have ever played.
I only needed to play 400 raked hand, which meant that I needed to see only 400 flops!
The client was decent and the games were pretty easy.
However, the bonus has changed recently, making it a little harder to achieve - but overall still a good bonus!

The Savvy requirements were easy before they changed it, but they still are not hard to achieve. The software is poor and their support is lacking, sadly.
However, on the upside, the competition is really soft and weak.
Not quite the paradise that I expected...

Paradise poker has a really nice-looking software, but in my opinion the control buttons on the tables were packed too tight in the corner compared to the window size. The players seemed fairly good, but the low stakes tables had quite a few weak players to feast on! The savvy bonus was easy to clear, but the deposit bonus was challenging by comparison. I also found it rather odd that the money had to be transferred back and forth between a sportingbet account and the poker wallet.

The PokerSavvy bonus on Paradise is very easy one, and it only took 2 days for 4-tabling $25 No Limit Hold'em to clear. As a Bonus Site, this room deserves 5/5 stars. Unfortunately, Paradise suffers from support problems. Sadly, they don't always seem to know what they're talking about, except that their work is poker-related! (laughs). I thought Paradise's software is good overall, although several times some of my opened tables strangely disappeared. But overall, it was fine enough for me.

Good news, the players on Paradise are really weak! But bad news, Paradise's software is just as bad as the players! Unlike other online poker sites, you can't resize the tables on Paradise, and they are pretty big to begin with. The tables play pretty fast which is nice, but without changing their size, it's rough on the user.

First off, Paradise Poker is a good, room for poker. The players are weak and fishy. Unfortunately, Paradise has poor software, in my opinion. Sweet tip - the bonus is easy to clear playing 7 card stud! Since everyone posts an ante - there's more money in the pot to be made and raked. I cleared the PokerSavvy bonus is just 400 hands!

Clearing the PokerSavvy bonus on Paradise is very easy! Most of the players I played were not very good (especially on shorthanded tables), but I had a couple of horrible bad beats. ;D. The software is nice, and I liked its graphic layout. My only complaint is how large its tables are, and how I couldn't resize them to make them smaller. Overall, really enjoyed playing on Paradise, and most of all, earning those those 900 Savvypoints:)

This is probably the easiest bonus to get SavvyPoints from. You only need 400 raked hands to meet the requirements, which is easy to do when multi-tabling four low-limit cash game tables.

The Paradise Poker software is very bad. There are no filters to sort the different games they offer. Every time you run Paradise Poker you must transfer funds from your SportingBet account before you can get started playing poker. This bonus isn't that easy to clear at $0.50/$1 limit Hold'em.

The SavvyPoints bonus can be earned real fast at Paradise Poker (I would have given them 5 stars for that), but they don't have a lot of full ring tables. I only managed to play at a maximum of three tables at the same time. The tables cannot be resized, and you cannot select where you are positioned at the table. When I start a session I have to move the windows around the screen until I can see the cards at each table, which is very annoying! Another problem is the clumsy system for inputting the amount to buy-in, when betting, or re-buying. I lost some pots because of that!

...but that's all. I really disliked their software, it's hard to see when it's your turn and when you fail to act in time you will then have to sit out of the very next hand, and you must pay a small blind to come back in again. This is really frustrating if you are trying to play at multiple tables or when playing at turbo cash game tables where you have less time to act. Unfortunately, you'll mostly be playing at turbo cash game tables because there's not much traffic in the regular games. Also, their software does not offer any resizable tables. On top of all that, they robbed me for $7! I deposited exactly $200, but SportingBet operates in Euros, so when I transferred my Euros to the poker room, I had only €193. As far as strategy goes, doing several hit and runs is my advice. As I mentioned, the SavvyPoints are easy to get, you don't even have to ask their support how many hands you've played, just just out your account details at the SportingBet homepage!
Easiest promotion!

In my opinion, Paradise Poker has the easiest promotion of all the poker rooms on PokerSavvy. I cleared the requirements within five days playing $0.05/$0.10 no-limit Hold'em. The opponents are very weak, so it's no problem to boost your bankroll while playing. The graphics are okay and my withdrawal was processed very fast. I got my money after only a few hours of waiting. The only con that costs the poker room one star is that their own deposit bonus is horrible. For every 100 Paradise FPPs you earn, you get $5 of your bonus. I only earned 1 FPP by the time I cleared the PokerSavvy bonus requirements.
Great Poker Room!

Paradise Poker is a really good online poker room. It's easy to get the 400 raked hands required to clear the bonus there. I played at the $0.1/$0.2 fixed-limit tables and got the bonus in less than a week. If you have problems claiming the deposit bonus you have to contact the live support team at Paradise Poker. Many good tournaments and freerolls every day. You can also place sports bets there. Try it, play it, win it!

This poker room has many things I did not like. First, they use Euros as currency and there are not many tables available at a time for full ring games. The software doesn't allow you to tile tables, so you have to move around windows every time you open a new one. Then you can only play at five tables at the same time. Although it was nice that the raked hands required to get the SavvyPoints were earned incredibly fast. So, if you want to earn a fast 900 SavvyPoints, go there!

This is probably the easiest promo I've ever seen. To finish the bonus you must play 400 contributed raked hands, but it can be done in just a few hours, even at micro-limit tables. Very easy and almost no risk! There are also a few things I don't like about this poker site. My biggest complaint is their five-player maximum shorthanded tables which I don't like since I'm used to playing at six-player maximum tables. I highly recommend this promo to everyone!

A brand new PokerSavvy promotion and a very good one as well! I played $25 max buy-in No-Limit Hold'em to finish the bonus and it came pretty easy. Especially at the 5-max shorthanded games, the raked hands count goes up fast. There were plenty of bad players that handed over their money to me. The only thing I didn't like about Paradise Poker was the clearance rate of their sign-up bonus. Still, four stars ain't bad at all!

It was easy to earn savvypoints at paradise since there were lots of tables at limits I play and very loose & poor opponents
Also they offered different games like pineapple and 5 draw, though I only tried pineapple.
The waiting list system is poorly designed, I sometimes had to open the table up where I wanted to join the waiting list. also the lobby didn't update waiting lists very well. Also for me it would be important to be able to open more than 4 tables. You can't at paradise.
Game play was pretty fast, I didn't notice any major bugs in that
All in all, I think I'm going to go back to paradise pretty soon.

Nice ring games, but sometimes it's hard to find good table. Ring games (Full NL 100, 200) are tight (weak-tight) and there is sometimes too much competition. But you can always find a couple of bad players too. Software was good looking and it worked well, no disconnections. I liked the fast cashier and multi-tabling was easy. Bonus 25% up to $100 is not great, but quite easy to get.
