Everest Poker is an international poker room with a lot to offer their players, no matter what region of the world they reside in; however, they do not offer Mac-compatible software. The Everest Poker software is available in 16 languages and has a very diverse player base. They run satellites to some of the largest live poker tournaments in the world and have a wide variety of in-house promotions, as well. You can also use your Everest Poker account to place wagers at the Everest Casino and the Everest Sportsbook.

Hits and Misses

Grand Virtual Technology is the software provider for Everest Poker. This multi-lingual application offers great visual graphics as well as swift and smooth animation and play, allowing for more hands to be played per hour. This is a download only software with no flash poker room available. The platform works best for computers with more memory capacity.

Bonus

Everest Poker offers a Welcome Bonus (use Bonus Code: EN400) to new real-money players up to $400. To clear the bonus, earn Summit Points. Each point is worth $0.07 of your bonus, for 30 days. Also receive a freeroll ticket for the New Depositor’s $1000 Cash Freeroll with deposits made within one week of registering. Also, Everest Poker gives a $50 Referral Bonus to you for each new player you refer.

Promotions

Reoccurring promotions at Everest Poker include Shasta tables that allow players to earn real money with zero risk, the $100K Sunday Guaranteed with a $25K payout to first place with qualifiers starting at $5.50, the Steps Challenge consisting of five step levels beginning at just $2 at Step 1, and the low-risk Chip and Chair tournaments that cost only $1. Additionally, Everest Poker hosts satellites to big-money events around the world.

Games Available

Everest Poker offers two variations of poker: Texas Holdem and Omaha. More poker games may become available at Everest Poker in the future. Both of these games are offered on a wide range of cash game table limits and tournament buy-ins, as well. Despite the lack of game selection, there is still a decent amount of traffic and competition here.

Support

Everest Poker now offers multi-lingual Live Chat support, Monday through Friday, between the hours of 14:00 GMT until 21:00 GMT, as well as email, and click to call support, which allows players to request a phone call to them from the customer service department Monday through Friday between the hours of 14:00 GMT until 21:00 GMT. Also available is a very extensive Frequently Asked Questions section on the website.

Payment Options

Payment methods available at Everest Poker are limited to credit cards and debit cards, NETeller, moneybookers, Click2Pay, and paysafecard. As this site is an international poker room with players from all over the world the payment options are pretty few, but the ones available are easy to use and the payment processing is good.
