Review

RedStar Poker was launched back in 2005 and since that time, hundreds of thousands of players have chosen this poker room as a reliable partner that provides comfortable and safe conditions for playing poker!
RedStar Poker, after the closure of Microgaming in 2020, joined the well-known iPoker network (which is in the top 20 sites in terms of cash traffic), which has dramatically increased its attendance.


Software

RedStar Poker uses the Playtech platform, which is one of the industry leaders. The client does not look “modern” compared to the top platforms, but it is quite reliable and functional.
RedStar supports all popular poker trackers: Holdem Manager3, PokerTracker4 and Hand2Note with HUD support, the whole hand history is saved.
Every 30 days or 1,000 rake hands played at RedStar Poker, a player can change their nickname. This is necessary to protect beginners from regs using additional software. The room client on PC supports up to 10 tables for playing Speed ​​and up to 16 for all other types of games!
With the transition to iPoker, the room received a unified network interface — a clear separation of game formats, a convenient filtering system, and a clear design of the lobby and tables. The latter can be adjusted to your liking.

RedStar Poker is the only room on the network that accepts cryptocurrencies: BTC, ETH, LTC. A commission of 2% is taken from the deposit for conversion and 3% for cashout.
The RedStar cash could be called ideal if there were not the commission from 0.8% to 3%, depending on the payment system. The amount of the commission is indicated before confirming the transaction.

Interesting fact

Twister Poker is an analogue of Spin&Go, in which three players play for a jackpot formed by multiplying the buy-in by a random multiplier. Buy-ins are from €1 to €100, the maximum multiplier is 1,000. In addition to regular Twisters, there are Age of the Gods games with a progressive jackpot and WIld Twister, where you can win tickets to other twisters. Tournaments are located in the "Twister" tab.

Security

The RedStar Poker software guarantees the highest level of security for personal data. All information is kept confidential and never shared with third parties. RedStar Poker is developed by Playtech, one of the leaders in gaming software development.

Registration

Three versions of the client are available on the RedStar official website: for Windows, Android and directly from the browser. Unfortunately, there is nothing to please the owners of mobile devices based on iOS: there are no applications for the iPhone and iPad, but development is underway.

Advantages and disadvantages

➕ Reliable brand tested by time
➕ The client is highly configurable and has a large number of useful options
➕ Not bad cash game traffic
➕ Clear rakeback
➕ Good tournament grid
➕ Many freerolls
➕ Support for third-party trackers
➕ Many recreational players from similar platforms (casino and sports betting)

➖ Withdrawal fee
➖ No specific app for iPhone and iPad
➖ A lot of animation that loads the poker client

RedStar Poker seems like a promising place to play. There are good conditions for regular players here - high rakeback and support for poker trackers, these combinations are rare today. Judging by the reviews, the overall strength of the field is still low. After switching to iPoker, the traffic has noticeably increased, even at non-peak times it is quite noticeable.
