Cake Poker offers the games everyone is used to seeing such as Hold’em (with table stakes starting as low as $0.02/0.04), Stud, Omaha and your typical Hi/Lo variations of those games. You will always find Hold’em and Omaha games running, but it’s really rare to find a game of Stud being played.

Double-Up, Shootout, Bounty, Step Tournaments and the most interesting of them all, Kamikaze Tournaments.

Logiciels (Rated 9 out of 10)

The lobby is very easy to read. The main menu displays available tables along with details such as players-per-flop percentage, average pot size and hands per hour. The column to the right of the menu displays the players currently at the table and on the waiting list for the table you have selected. When you open a table, you can easily re-size it or choose between minimum, default and maximum size. You can also tile or cascade all open tables. If you want to change where you appear to sit without changing your seat, just click on the seat you want to sit in and click 'Sit Here'. When the hand is finished, the table rotates to the position you selected. As for other options, one cool feature is the ability to create custom tables. You can setup a custom table for No-Limit, Pot-Limit and Fixed-Limit games.

Graphismes (Rated 8 out of 10)

Cake Poker uses avatars, and you can choose the one most suitable for you in the options menu. Here you can also adjust the graphics quality settings and switch between one of two available backgrounds, either ’classic’ or ’simple’. The table graphics look nice and make the action easy to follow, the dealer button is one of the biggest you’ll see! One funny quirk is that the player avatars will lean back in their chairs if you sit out of the hand. Of course, there is certainly a 4-color-deck as well.

Rentabilité (Rated 9 out of 10)
