Summary (5.80)
Noble Poker is the leading poker room in the new 'iPoker network' initiative by PlayTech. The games are loose with lots of casino players and there are high value promotions (especially considering the moderate volume of players). Noble Poker and the iPoker network has been successful in quickly building a strong network, with the strategic backing from the world's second largest casino software provider. Noble Poker's software has an innovative and good interface, with colorful graphics. The functionality is good and the early minor glitches in the software are fixed now. There are Holdem and Omaha (High and High-Low) ring games, as well as heads-up, sit-and-go and multi-table tournaments. Ring games have 2,000-2,200 players at peak hours and tournaments had 7,000-9,000.
Ring Game Traffic (7)
Noble Poker and the iPoker network have about 2,000-2,200 ring game players at peak hours.
Game variety (8)
Noble Poker has moderate game variety with Texas Holdem and Omaha Hi-Lo and High, which are available in both limit, pot-limit and Texas Holdem in no-limit as well. Table stakes are from $0.5/$1 to $20/$40 in the fixed games, with $0.25/$0.50 up to $5/$10 in pot-limit and no-limit versions. (The fixed limit Omaha games have a bit lower maximum limits) There are both heads-up, sit-and-go and fixed schedule multi-table tournaments.
Soft competition (9)
Noble Poker has quite soft games. Most of the volume is in the no-limit Texas Holdem games where the view flop percentage is normally is the 40-ies or 50-ies. The players are also quite passive, so it is quite easy to be a winning player. The potential for the iPoker network to build soft games is very good as they recruit from the PlayTech online casino base and with aggressive marketing.
Loyalty bonus (2)
There is a "crowns system", whereby players get entered into special free rolls and can get high value re-load bonus offers.

Software & Graphics (7)
Noble Poker's software and players base is part of iPoker, which in turn is developed by PlayTech. The graphics are nice and clear and the functionality is good. Noble Poker has buddy list function, game history function, player notes, several options for music/sounds/etc, pot- and no-limit ring games, live floor managers and all types of tournaments. There has been an software update and the games run smoother and faster now.
Tournament traffic (7)
The traffic at the tournaments is higher than at cash games when real money traffic can reach somewhere around 7,000-9,000 players at peak hours.
Rake (5)
The rake at Noble Poker is actually better than the average online. The general policy is the standard 5% rake taken in increments up to $3. But on several types of tables there are lower max rakes. On fixed limit tables up to $1/$2 there is a $1 max rake. More importantly all tables with 2-3 players have a max rake of $1 and tables with 4-5 players have a $2 max rake - which also includes no-limit and pot-limit short handed games! There is a "no flop - no drop" policy for hands not reaching the flop.
Sign up bonus (5)
Bonuses are paid in $10 increments and paid out on a daily basis, which is also very good. Standard promotion is 100% deposit match up to $200 bonus. There is a 90 day time limit to reach the required hands. For each played hand (getting dealt cards) in a raked pot a player earns 1-4 crowns depending on table limits. $0.25/$0.50 blinds give 1 crown and $1.00/$2.00 blinds and up give 4 crowns. 500 crowns will give $10 bonus. Hence in order to clear all of the $300 bonus you need to have earned 15,000 crowns, which equals 3,750 participated hands at a $1/$2 game.
Promotions (4)
Overall there are a lot of promotions at Noble Poker as they are building up volume with their new network. There are quite a few free rolls. There are high hand and bad beat prizes. Recruit-a-friend earns you $25 per qualified friend, which is quite meager though.
Financial security (5)
Very secure, as this room is part of iPoker, which is backed by the renowned casino software developer and operator PlayTech.
