Tiger Gaming poker overview

Online poker room Tiger Gaming Poker is a great opportunity to play poker with players from the USA, still TigerGaming itself doesn’t admit real money players from the USA, South Africa and Turkey (but other poker rooms in the Chico network do).

There is a proud slogan placed on the official website of Tiger Gaming 'Players trust us since 1999'. Even though it sounds pretty weird and coolly, the room is still worth attention. The poker room is rather old, from the point of online gambling industry, so you would be able to find some negative reviews of TigerGaming Poker in the Internet. However, 2 years ago the poker room changed the owner, who did a great job to reclaim the respect to the brand. Withdrawal speed was reduced to a minimum, the guarantees at the tournaments multiplied and the players traffic increased since then.

The web site TigerGaming.com is a part/skin of a comparatively small, but rapidly developing Chico Poker network. And one only fact can prove it: yet in the beginning of the year 2015 the network could barely get into players traffic top-20 in accordance with PokerScout rankings, but in the middle of 2016 it was already 13^th. The statistics of the first half of 2016 shows that the average number of players, played simultaneously at the cash tables is about 525 (ignoring ones who use play money). This is not bad, considering that the majority of players on this site are poor players from the USA and Canada.

The poker network Chico Poker was established at the end of 2012, when the Action Poker Network was merged because of the debt problems and bad marketing strategy. New owners eliminated these problems.

The poker room is managed by Action Commerce Limited company and licensed at Curacao, the Netherlands Antilles.

TigerGaming poker room is popular for its weak fields: many players come from a so-named casino or are attracted with nice bonuses.

As it was already mentioned, TigerGaming is one of few poker rooms that has American players at it's poker tables. At the moment, poker room TigerGaming has one of the leading positions on the Canadian market and the Chico network - on the US market.

Earlier Chico Poker network, TigerGaming is a skin of it, had a small Norwegian company Playsafe Holding as a software provider. Frankly speaking, the software was not attractive and convenient, thus the poker room was criticized by players for this matter pretty often. But in July, 2016 the company got rid of this problem: Chico Poker changed their software provider for Connective Games. Now tables and the lobby are as good looking as ones of the best online poker rooms. Even though the software at room can’t be considered ideal, but there are loads of sites equipped much worse. The servers of TigerGaming are located in Indian reserve Kahnawake, Canada.

Variety of games at TigerGaming Poker

The range of games has widened a lot since TigerGaming Poker changed the software provider. Thus, at the moment these games are available at cash tables: Texas Holdem, Omaha Hi, Omaha Hi-Lo, Americana, 32 Card Draw, 7 Stud. But the main game is held at No Limit Texas Holdem tables. Cash games at NL100 limits are running at any time, moreover, the players are pretty weak.

TigerGaming tournaments should be separately mentioned. Even though the maximum guaranteed prize pool of a single tournament doesn’t exceed $50,000 (this tournament is held couple times a month), the MTT schedule is very diverse. There are daily tournaments for new players with guarantees from $20 to $25,000 and freerolls (with prize pools of from $10 to $300); on certain days Tiger Gaming hosts tournaments with $2,000, $5,000, $10,000 and $25,000 guarantees (on weekends). The tournament schedule is focused on players from North and South America.

This poker room fits perfectly both: poker beginners and middle stakes players.
