Inter Poker redeems some of its shortcomings with killer player incentives. Inter Poker currently offers an initial deposit bonus of 100% on deposits up to $500. Earning the bonus is not that difficult to do, either. In order to withdraw the bonus or play with it on the tables you will need to play five times the bonus in raked hands. For example, you will need to play 500 raked hands to clear a $100 bonus.

In addition to the initial deposit bonuses, InterPoker often offers monthly reload bonuses, which you will receive an email about. InterPoker also offers a "Prop" player option, where Inter Poker will actually pay you an hourly wage (although not a large one), to sit in at a table and play. Every player who registers an InterPoker account and has more than $20 in his or her account is eligible for a prop player invitation. When invited you will see a pop up message (see screenshot below) telling you which table needs to be started, the limit of the table, and the amount InterPoker is prepared to pay you to play on that table.

InterPoker has additional bonuses, promotions, and player incentives. "Where's Ryan" - the poker room manager, RyanH, will randomly give players a $10-$100 credit just for playing! InterPoker has a Poker Points program, where players accumulate points for freerolls. InterPoker also offers a Bad Beat Jackpot, which at the time of this writing is worth $3,000, and a Royal Flush Jackpot currently valued at $500.

I'm not a big fan of the InterPoker interface. I had a tough time playing against the players. I couldn't find any fish at the low stakes no limit game. The room does not offer low limits or a cheap game, and the players have big chip stacks and are pretty skilled. However, the great promotions and bonuses that Inter Poker offers will keep me here for a while longer. I'll stay at least until I've earned my bonus dollars!
