Why iPoker?

iPoker is one of the most booming networks since 2021, reaching the TOP5 in 2022. Besides entering regulated markets like Switzerland or the Netherlands, the network has taken other steps towards improving its offer:

In early 2021, launched a built-in HUD
In late 2021, Speed Poker (fast-fold poker) was reengineered
In 2022, announced a record tournament series with €3,000,000 GTD

Let's recall iPoker is still a semi-friendly pro network, as their hand histories are available and compatible with trackers, HUDs are legal, but table selection has been restricted.
