Tiger Gaming Software

The software at Tiger Gaming has a number of features that work well.

The tables themselves are among the most visually pleasant in the online industry. No sharp or bright colors which tend to put strain on the eyes after long session exposure. The tables have a faded green-felt look with players identified as grayish placards sitting upon tan chairs on a lighter tan carpet. Cardbacks are purplish and go well to keep the visual impact down. Action is fast as the playing software is very crisp. Player note function provides ample space, but unfortunately, the noteboxes don't have an automatic text wrap-around feature. Players are allowed to use four-color decks, and have a few options for playing card visuals. The on-table statistics window is nicely laid out and informative.

The main menu bar has a variety of information which is well laid out. One concern is that the cashiering screen is not an integral part of the main menu software, and is available only through Tiger Gaming's webpages. The main menu software has all of the pertinent information needed [players seeing flop, average pot size] for table selection to be informative, but the tournament menus are extremely poor. Rather than have all of the tournament statuses in one menu, they are sub-divided into four menus: Announced, Registering, Running and Completed. Also, SnGs and MTTs are commingled on the same screens making navigation that much more difficult. There is very little information provided on the menus themselves aside from number of players registered, buy-in amounts and the tournament number. Players need to click on each tournament offered to find out the start time and date, whether the tournament is NL or FL, whether rebuys and add-ons are allowed and whether the tournament is guaranteed.

Tiger Gaming Traffic

Traffic on the Action Poker Network ranks in the top 25 of he largest sites and networks in online poker. Combined traffic for the Network averages 2000 players at any one time. Although many games are offered the vast majority of players can be found playing Texas Hold'em.

Tiger Gaming Games

Tiger Gaming offers a wide variety of games to choose from.

Texas Hold'em is by far the biggest draw. Fixed limits range from $0.10/$0.20 to $50/$100, with the majority at $2/$4 at below. No-limit is offered in buy-ins from NL5 to NL1000, with games as high as NL200 seeing consistent action. Pot-limit is offered only in the highest limits of PL1000 and PL2500.

Although Tiger Gaming offers Omaha and 7-Card Stud, traffic in these poker alternatives is virtually non-existent. Tiger Gaming also offers Guts, Big2, Chinese Poker and Pan, but the traffic here is usually relegated to one small limit game.

MTTs and SnGs are offered around the clock. The SnG buy-ins range from $1+$0.15 to $30+$3, and are of the heads-up, 6-max and 10 player varieties. MTTs are all scheduled for the same time daily and this schedule is available from the main menu Help section of the toolbar. Buy-ins run from $1+$0.10 to $20+$2, All SnGs and MTTs are NL Texas Holdem.

Piscivorous Discretionary Tiger Gaming Bonus Rating

Both tournaments/SnGs and cash games clear bonuses at about an 83% rakeback pace. Problem is that traffic is a bit on the low side and so the possibilities of multi-tabling or finding enough tournaments to help clear the quite large bonus are not presented for the seasoned bonus chaser. With a 45 day, lump sum, clearance window, my advice to would-be bonus chasers is to make a small deposit for the initial and reload bonuses, so that they are attainable within the window of opportunity. Makiing too big a deposit at Tiger Gaming and being unable to clear their bonus would be counterproductive.
