Everest Poker Promotions

The number and value of promotions is slightly below industry standard. Everest Poker has not yet had any re-load bonuses but there are quite a few decent free rolls for beginning players. It is possible to make the roll over from a play money player to a real money player by only participating in free roll tournaments (mainly single table tournaments) without depositing any real money (though this will take a lot of time and dedication).

Everest Poker Financial Security

Everest Poker is a fairly new room, but with a serious approach and no recorded problems.
