Mansion Poker Introduction

Mansion Poker has quickly become one of the most popular sites on the iPoker Network.   Founded in 2004 by private investors in Gibraltar, where it is licensed and regulated, Mansion Poker began as a small and little known poker room. It remained fairly unpopular for the first few years and then it exploded in 2008, due in large part to joining iPoker. In recent years it has now come to rival Titan Poker and Winner Poker for the top spot on the network. Unfortunately for Americans they are not permitted to play at Mansion Poker, so U.S. players will have to keep looking elsewhere.

Mansion Poker features a decent variety of games for its players, including:

• Texasholdem
• Omahahi
• Omahahi lo
• 7 card stud hi
• 7 card stud hi lo
• 5 card draw
• 5 card stud

The poker games here range in stakes from as little as $.01/$02 up to $300/$600 which makes Mansion Poker a nice home for all types of players. The traffic peaks at the micro and low stakes, yet games are available at even the highest stakes. The players here are usually pretty loose and passive, resulting in fairly soft games.

As a member of the iPoker Network, Mansion Poker has access to the state of the art Playtech software. Playtech is highly regarded in the online community for putting out some of the highest quality software available on the market. The software is only compatible with Windows which is unfortunate for Mac and Linux users.  However, you do have the option to play in your web browser with no download or installation required.

Mansion Poker Promotions

Mansion Poker's biggest promotion is the Club Mansion which is the rewards program of the poker room. The program is based on Club Mansion Points, which are awarded to players for participating in real money tournaments and cash games. The amount of points you earn per month determines your Club Mansion Level, which than gives you access to certain benefits.

Overall, the more points you earn per month the higher your level becomes. In turn, the higher your level the more points you earn every time you play a real money game via the ‘points boost’. At Club Mansion, points can be exchanged for cash and for merchandise as well. The Club Mansion Shop allows you to use your points to purchase poker accessories, electronics, clothing, and other items. You also given the option to exchange your points for cash if that is your preference.
