Poker888 Background

888 Poker, also known as Pacific Poker has recently received a major upgrade in all aspects of its game. From more detailed table options, gaming types to extensive player customization, 888 Poker is fast becoming a stand out online poker experience. The new table design centers around a large playing table and equally large and colorful playing cards, complemented by a range of innovative 3D avatars. A completely redesigned lobby, for both cash and tournament games is capped off with improvements to security.

Limits and Rake

The limits at 888Poker are unified across each of the games offered; making it easier for players to find the playing level that best suits them. Limits start at $0.05/$0.10 and increase in steady amounts through to $75/$150. There are 12 limit levels all told, so there will be a game and a level to suit all caliber of players. A lot of experts consider the low limit games at 888 Poker to be terrific value as players tend to be loose and the rake is generous. For $0.05/$0.10 games the maximum rake is 6 cents. For the $25/$50 cent game the rake is capped at $0.30 cents. Both of these limits provide excellent value for new poker players. For the $0.5/$1 and $1/$2 games the rake is capped at $1.25, which is also better than most sites. For games above $1/$2 the rake is a standard 5 per cent capped at $3.
