Cake Poker Review

Summary:
Cake Poker is an up and comer in the online poker world.  It has gained popularity thanks in part to one-of-a-kind promotions, generous rewards and one of the most lucrative referral programs in the industry. 

Players of all levels and limits are contenders in unique promotions offering daily & weekly instant cash giveaways, a $52,000 Jackpot and over $15 Million in monthly tournament awards.

Cake Poker offers new players a 100% deposit bonus up to $500 and a free entry into their $500 new depositor FreeRoll. Cake Poker accepts players from the USA.  Click here to sign up and play at Cake Poker.


About Cake Poker:
Cake Poker is one of the newest online poker rooms having launched in the summer of 2025.  The planning for Cake goes back to 2004 when a design team was assembled with the mission to design a better poker site.  The result is Cake Poker’s unique and innovative software. Cake Poker is licensed and authorized by the government of the Netherlands Antilles.

 

The Software:
Cake Poker’s software is completely unique to Cake.  The software is smooth and I personally feel that the graphics are well done.  Surprisingly there are not many customization options for the table.  You can select one of the lifelike avatars or choose not to display them.  Players are permitted weekly Player ID changes if they so choose. You can enable a four color deck and choose to show the amount of the bets that are being placed.

The lobby at Cake Poker is well organized and it is easy to find any game or tournament that you are interested in.  You have the option to sort tables, including the different tournament types (multitable, satellites, freerolls and sit n go tournaments).

At Cake Poker you can choose to play 10 player full ring, 6-max shorthanded games and you can even play at heads up tables.

Another real nice feature is the Web-viewable Hand History that graphically displays your hand and allows you to send it as a link to your friends so you can analyze your play.

The in-game news system allows you to keep up to date on all of Cake’s latest promotions and happenings.

Cake Poker offers the most popular online poker games which include:

Texas Holdem Poker, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, 7 Card Stud, 7 Card Stud Hi-Lo - but as you might guess, the majority of the action is at the Texas Holdem tables.

Cake Poker’s Tournaments:
Much of Cake Poker’s increase in traffic and popularity can be attributed to some of their great tournaments. 

As part of their WSOP* promotion cake sends 50 players to play in the Main Event.  You can win your prize package in one of three ways:

1) Cake Cash, Gold Chip & Gold Card Satellites
2) Refer friends with the ShareCake WSOP* Giveaway
3) Win one of 50 WSOP* prize packs in their Gold Card Daily Lottery

Cake’s Million Dollar Freeroll Series – gives you a chance to win a share of $1,000,000 for FREE. You can earn your seat to one of the ten $100,000 Freeroll Final Main Events in any of the weekday Million Dollar Freerolls. You can earn your seat in the $100,000 Million Dollar Freeroll Series Final events in a Freeroll, a Cash Satellite starting at only $2 or through a Direct Buy Ins ($50+$4 fee).

Cake also offers many different guaranteed tournaments 150K, 75K, 30K, 15K all with a monthly total of $15 million awarded every month.

You will also find a ‘sit n go’ for players of all levels.  Sit n Go’s start as low as $1 + .10 and up to as high as $300 + $12


Traffic and Players:
Since Cake Poker is not part of a network they needed to build up the player base themselves.  This is always slow going at first but they have managed to do so quite nicely.  It’s not uncommon to find over 4,000 players on at peak times, of course, off peak you’ll find about 1500 to 2000 players online. When I originally did this review back in 2025 peak traffic were about 3000 players at most. 

You will mainly find beginner players at Cake.  This is common at newer poker rooms.  While you will find some decent players at higher limits most are on the newer side.


Customer Service:
Cake Poker offers support 24/7 via e-mail at support@cakepoker

 

Funding Your Cake Poker Account:
You can fund your Cake Poker Account with your credit card, Neteller, and Money Bookers.


The Bottom Line on Cake Poker:
Cake Poker is still fairly new and growing rapidly.  While overall traffic is still on the low side, the number of players has definitely increased and will continue to increase.  I think Cake Poker is a good choice for beginners and for anyone wanting to check out one of the newer online poker rooms.  The 100% sign up bonus, $500 FreeRoll for all new depositors and all the great promotions like the Gold Card giveaways make it worthwhile to check it out.
