Poker Heaven

Poker Heaven Review

Poker Heaven is a name that has been in business almost as long as online poker has existed and one of the reasons for its longevity is its customer-first approach.

Poker Heaven has a glowing reputation for making customers new and old feel welcome, at home and safe when they are playing online poker or one of the other Poker Heaven gambling products.

With the closure of the International Poker Network — often called the BOSS Network — Poker Heaven switched to the busy and exciting MPN or Microgaming Network. Poker Heaven's customers also have access to the Ongame Network, too.

Poker Heaven Microgaming Welcome Package

By signing up to Poker Heaven via PokerNews you can claim a huge 200% up to €1,000 first deposit bonus, which is one of the biggest bonuses in the online poker world.

Deposit €200 and a pending €400 bonus will be added to your account. Up that amount to €500 and a massive €1,000 pending bonus is added to your account. All you need to do then is generate the required Loyalty Points within 60 days to have that bonus released into your account.

The bonus is released in 1% increments each time you earn 68 Loyalty Points, which works out at an impressive 20% cash back.

In addition to the huge first deposit bonus, new depositing Poker Heaven players are invited to 6 x €500 New Player Freerolls and 6 x €500 Guaranteed New Player Turbo Tournaments, giving you the chance to play for a share of €6,000!

Poker Heaven Microgaming Loyalty Scheme
