Titan Poker is the most popular and reputable of all iPoker network poker rooms; Grinderschool has partnered with Titan Poker for several years to bring free memberships to Grinderschool Subscribers who have made the switch to Titan Poker.
Under the same ownership as Titan Poker, Mansion Poker is also on the iPoker network and providers great rewards for small stakes players. As an additional poker room on the iPoker network, Celeb Poker looks to make a name for itself by providing quality service and the highest rewards for moderate rake earners. Each poker room on the iPoker network may be the best poker room for you depending on your current rake level.
Traffic on the iPoker Network
Back To TopThe following table shows how the iPoker Network compares to other online poker networks during peak hours:
| Rank | Poker Network | Peak Players in Lobby | Cash Game Players |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Poker Stars | 200,000+ | 35,000+ |
| 2 | Party Poker | 22,000+ | 6000+ |
| 3 | iPoker | 13000+ | 6000+ |
The iPoker Network has several 6-max tables at nearly all stakes running at any time of day, even during non-peak hours. If you're looking for full ring NLHE or 6-max PLO tables then you will not find many outside of peak network hours (Europe PM). Regulars will likely have to stagger different stakes if you plan on playing during non peak hours to keep volume up. The following is a break down of the iPoker network's cash games during peak hours:
| Game | Type | Number of Tables | Total Players |
|---|---|---|---|
| Texas Hold'em | No Limit | 700 | 5000 |
| Texas Hold'em | Limit | 40 | 300 |
| Omaha | Pot Limit | 130 | 700 |
| 7 Card Stud | Limit | 5 | 40 |
The SNG traffic at the iPoker Network heavily consists of 6-max, which run at most stakes even during non-peak hours. If you're looking for SNGs with 9 or more players, those tournaments rarely run on the iPoker network above the $11 level. Expect to find several larger buy-in and guaranteed MTTs during peak hours and each tournament should have several hundred entrants with little overlay.

Review of the iPoker VIP Rewards
Back To TopRegardless of the rake level, Grinderschool believes that Celeb Poker's VIP Rewards system is the best VIP Rewards for the average player***. If you rake an average of $625/month for an entire year your VIP Rewards will be over 36%, that is 10% higher than iPoker and double Mansion Poker's VIP rate. High rake earners at Celeb Poker have the ability to earn the highest VIP Rewards rate over any other poker room. Rake $2000 per month for an entire year and receive up to 67% VIP Rewards!
Overall iPoker Network Review
Back To TopThe iPoker Network offers among the highest VIP Rewards rate for high volume players, plus you get the additional benefit of playing at a poker room in the top 3 in traffic. 6-max cash game and SNG players will not have a problem finding games at iPoker while full ring and PLO players will likely to have to add the iPoker games on top of the games at other poker rooms.
Grinderschool recommends playing at the iPoker Network over any other VIP Rewards poker room if you're a medium to high rake earner to take advantage of the high rewards. Low rake earners will earn free membership to Grinderschool without paying a lot of rake, but the VIP Rewards you receive wont be as high as other poker rooms that offer guaranteed rakeback.
