Poker Host completed its move from Merge Gaming to the Equity Poker Network in the early evening hours today. All player balances were moved and VIP Points have reportedly been converted to cash at the player’s Merge VIP rate.
Poker Host joins several other prominent brands on the Equity Poker Network, including Full Flush Poker, 5Dimes, Heritage and Action Poker.
One immediate change Poker Host made was its first deposit bonus. The Merge 200% up to $5,000 first deposit bonus has been reduced to 150% up to $600. The good news is that the previous bonus was nearly impossible to clear as it required $15 in rake for every $1 in bonus. The new bonus is the equivalent of 50% rakeback, as it requires 20 POP Points for every $1 in bonus. Players earn 1 POP for every $.10 in rake paid. The bonus expires after 60 days.
Poker Host is operated by SBG Global and has been a member of numerous networks over the years. It launched as a Dobrosoft site 10 years ago. It later moved to Tribeca in 2006. Poker Host moved to Microgaming in 2007 when Tribeca banned U.S. players. When Microgaming banned U.S. players in 2009, Poker Host moved to the Cake Network. In 2010, it became a member of Merge Gaming until today’s latest network change.
Poker Host has always had a cashier independent of its poker network. It is one of the fastest U.S. online poker sites in terms of payment processing.
